Fortunately, more and more people are utilizing the superpowers found in essential oils; powers like supreme focus, deep relaxation, and radiant skin. Yet, there’s still a negative stigma that needs to be eradicated once and for all: men too can benefit from essential oils and it won’t make you any less masculine. In fact, they can make you even more attractive!Â
Self love isn't doing what you would like to do, it's doing what you need to do in order to hold on to whatever shred of health and/or dignity you have left. Whether it's finally ending things with a toxic partner, deleting all of the food delivery service apps off of your phone or putting yourself to bed (even when you're not tired). Eucalyptus is the oil of self-love but it doesn't smell like a lovely flower or fruit. It's a harsh, almost medicinal scent that delivers a potent punch that opens air pathways and cleanses the air of negative energies.Â
The Mood Bluetooth Diffuser is a one-of-a-kind diffuser that is designed to engage your senses. Our brains have mood memory – the same way your body has muscle memory. Our brain engages with repetition, once it picks up a pattern, it engages that pattern more frequently. That's how we're able to create good or bad habits.
A functional fragrance like essential oils is a tool for creating a self-care process, and while lavender won’t cure a diagnosed anxiety disorder, it will certainly help with relieving everyday feelings of anxiousness.
We liken it to going for a run – going for a run won’t be the cure for obesity, but rather it will serve as a tool to help fight obesity in conjunction with other tools such as proper nutrition, etc. Essential oils won’t cure any ailments overnight, but when used daily as part of a self-care process, they begin to do wonders for our moods, our mental state, and our physical bodies.
Chamomile was discovered by ancient Egyptians who were on to something when they incorporated this oil into their skincare and health routines. This oil helps us think about our purpose in life and is chock full of benefits for mind and body.
This is a precious oil that is only harvested during a short period each year in England. Chamomile has a sweet, floral aroma perfect for the diffuser, or (diluted) skincare use. A little goes a long way with this rare oil. Vellum's Chamomile oil is steam distilled from flower heads in the United Kingdom.
If you're anything like me you've had your share of stop-and-starts with journaling. I've been writing in spurts since I learned to put pen to paper. My routine's been the same since I was writing about crushes in my diary: I'd open up a crisp new notebook and delve into the happenings of the day until my hand cramped from rushed strokes.
The very next night I'd open my journal up to the first blank page and write to my heart's content. Then I'd miss a day, or two, and in a huff, I'd try to fill my journal in on what I'd been up to since I'd last wrote, and fall asleep before finishing. After that, journaling would feel like a chore since I was so behind, and the book would lay unopened for months until creativity struck again.
Geranium is an empowering oil that stabilizes moods and increases brain activity. This is a great choice to reach for when you want to boost energy and release feelings of tension, anxiety, and worry. Geranium has been shown to improve cognition and regulate hormones. Diffuse Geranium in the late afternoon/ early evening to start relaxing, but still giving you enough energy to finish the day off strong.
