Emotional Healing and Essential Oils

Emotions, both good and bad, are an essential part of life. When we experience more bad emotions than good, it is a sign that something is "off", not just in the mind but in the body as well. Essential oils have been sought out for their pure, medicinal properties for centuries. Since they are derived from nature. They are the perfect option for anyone looking to address their health in a holistic way.

Research shows our bodies digest emotions just like we digest our food. Emotions left unattended show up later as ailments in the body and wreak havoc on our nervous system.

Essential oils are a great way to help us naturally heal unresolved emotions, however, they cannot do the work for us. I recommend using essential oils during a meditation, before prayer or simply by setting an intention and taking a few moments to slow down your breath.

My mission is to empower women through miscarriage, pregnancy, and motherhood so they can show up standing tall, happy and present, ready to pass on what they've received to other women who are new to the journey.

Simple Oil-Pulling-Chews Recipe

Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic technique that has resurfaced in recent times. When swished around in the mouth, the antibacterial properties of oil pull out bacteria and fungus, alleviating inflammation, congestion, and even allergies. It squelches bad breath, bleeding gums, cavities, gingivitis, plaque, and sensitive teeth, and moistens the mouth, lips, and throat. Needless to say, it is more powerful than simply brushing your teeth and flossing, combined!


Directions to mastering your oral health, compliments of IIN:


Measure out 1-2 teaspoons of oil and put it in your mouth OR see video below a step by step how-to make your own peppermint essential oil infused chewables.

• 1| Swish and pull the oil around your mouth and between your teeth. Start with five minutes and then build your way up to 20 minutes or more. Be careful not to swallow the oil since it contains toxins and bacteria from your mouth. 
• 2| When you’re ready to spit out the liquid, make sure you do so in the garbage. The contaminated oil can clog your pipes. 
• 3| Rinse your mouth out with salt water or water mixed with a little apple cider vinegar to ensure that all of the oil is out of your mouth. 
• 4| After you’ve thoroughly rinsed your mouth, brush your teeth well to kill any bacteria remnants. 
• 5| Smile in the mirror and thank yourself for taking time to take care of you! Your self-care should be an extremely high priority. When you care for yourself deeply, you’re able to show up in the world in a big way

That man or woman who pissed you off doesn't deserve your frustration; it will only fuel their ego. Sometimes it's better accept things for what they are. Yea, she's an asshole, sure he's an egotistical prick- but what good will it do for you to point it out? Absolutely nothing. Telling them off will do nothing for you. Unless it's someone you really care about and are building towards a better tomorrow, you're better off taking the high road. Chances are you'll feel different when you cool off and maybe not even care in a day or two.

When other’s control your emotions, they control your thoughts and health along with it. Some people feed off of that- in their mind- they feel big when you feel small. But that's not your problem. Focus on what you can control and find that inner peace they so much desire.

Advice from Dr. Bernstein: If you're really burning to say something, write it out and put it in your draft box for 24 hours before deciding to send it. This gives you time to devise a sane and rational response to the situation. And don't be afraid to tell the person who has aggrieved you that you need a day or two to think about the issue.

Show you have manners. Be the better person ;)
