[AlternativeAnswers] Aromatherapy and the Heart

 

Good Morning!

Aromatherapy and the Heart

The heart provides the power we need to live. Arguably the most important muscle we have. In an average lifetime, the heart beats more than two and a half billion times, without ever pausing to rest. The heart supplies the force to circulate blood throughout the body. The blood transports oxygen and nutrient to the cells of the body and carries waste and other substances from the cells. It pumps an average of 6000 quarts of blood daily.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine the heart is the emperor of the human body. The heart is the ruler of the five organs. It commands the movements of the four extremities, it circulates the blood and Qi (our vital energy), as it roams the realms of the material and the immaterial. It is in harmony with the expression of every action. 

Aromatherapy can help sooth the heart, calm the nerves and slow a rapid pulse. As always prevention is the key. Maintaining the condition of our heart is important, no matter if you are working with a healthy heart or have had a stroke, high blood pressure, congestive heart failure...aromatherapy can help! Helpful, are essential oils of Clary Sage, Bergamot, Geranium, Ginger, Lemongrass, Neroli, Rose and Rosemary and are all beneficial for the heart.



Bergamot: helps soothe frustration and anger. This citrus oil helps those regain self confidence, who have lost it and uplifts and refreshes the Spirit. Bergamot has a reputation that evokes joy and warms the heart.

Clary Sage: The heart-shaped leaves of Clary Sage is considered an antispasmodic oil, can decrease heart rate and is considered mildly hypotensive.

Geranium: The fuzzy heart-shaped leaves of Geranium may also be an indicator that this fragrant oil is used to improve the circulatory system. Geranium is also known to soothe an agitated heart.

Ginger: This rich, spicy oil so often used for nausea also helps normalize blood pressure either by raises blood pressure by restricting external blood flow, or lowers it by dilating surface blood vessels.

Lemongrass: This oil contains five different compounds that inhibit blood clotting.

Neroli: Studies show that just inhaling Neroli can lower high blood pressure. Stress-related heart problems respond well to this fruity oil.

Rose: A gentle Heart tonifier, Rose's psychological properties play mostly upon it effects on the mind. The mind, which is the center of our emotional being, extends it's energy to the heart. Rose oil calms, nourishes and supports the heart and helps restore a sense of well being. Rose oil can be very beneficial in helping with anxiety, palpitations and insomnia. The compassion of the Rose is seen through it's ability to heal emotional wounds. When loss, rejection or sorrow has injured our capacity for nurturing and self love, Rose oil brings a sweet and gentle comfort, binding the "heart strings" from the Heart to the Mind.

Rosemary: Studies show that this oil improves general circulation.


But the power of scent to work for you!

[AlternativeAnswers] No Expectations, Endless Possibilities

 

Good Morning!

No Expectations, Endless Possibilities

We expect things in life. We expect things to be as they were in our childhood, the way we were brought up. We expect things to be the way we want them to be, the way we feel things should be. We expect things to be the way we want them to be in our love life, our careers, our families, our vacations and our relationship with others.

"The greater you expect things to be, the harder it is to deal with things that do not go your way!"

Already, I can sense resistance!

Having no expectations is one of the greatest lessons we can learn. This is not an easy concept to wrap your mind around.

In my practice, I see this everyday:

The 30 year old female who gives up other interests, activities, and friends, now that she is in this new relationship. She is expecting that each new relationship is "the one." She feels incomplete without a relationship and she is expecting that he will change into the man she wants him to be.

The 75 year old grandmother, who expects here children and grand children to all be with her on every single holiday.

The 23 year old college grad who expects to have all the computer companies knocking at his door to employ him because he was at the top of his graduating class. 
Are you ready to forget about what you think you want, and learn more about the endless possibilities that are available to you?

1. Allow change to happen freely. 
2. Let go of old ideas. 
3. Embrace new ideas, no matter how different they are from yours. 
4. Conflicting thoughts are not a threat. They can be a window of opportunity. 
5. Go into EVERY situation with an open mind. 
6. Follow a new idea or opportunity where IT leads you, NOT where you want it to go. 
7. Take a new situation, one day at a time. 
8. Be available mentally, emotionally, spiritually for an approach that may be different than yours. 
9. Find the positive in EVERY situation that is presented to you. Why was this situation brought to me? 
10. Learn the lesson the Universe is tossing your way. 
Progress is not possible unless people embrace new ideas, mind sets, skills and expectations to match the opportunities afforded by the introduction of something new to them!

By allowing yourself to be open to ANYTHING that is new to you and giving it a chance, you can find your life going in the direction of new adventures and endless possibilities!

Try it today!
