Geranium Oil Spotlight

Geranium (April 2009)
Have you ever tried Geranium Oil? Used for years as a gentle and calming single oil known for improving a variety of skin conditions (including dry eczema, burns, shingles, ringworm, lice, acne, cuts and wounds and even herpes or cold sores). It helps relieve pain, soothes anxiety and stress, diminishes swelling and inflammation, is sedative and useful for nervousness, and renowned for healing burns, wounds, and skin ulcers. It is used for sore breasts of lactating mothers. It is an excellent mosquito repellant. Some have used Geranium to stop excessive bleeding and nosebleeds, and during labor and delivery to prevent hemorrhage. An oil I wouldn't be without if you have a family with any skin conditions.
For external use, mix 12 drops of geranium oil to about 1 cup of distilled water. Since oil is not readily dissolved in water, mix well before using. Wash the skin with this blend as needed. Another way to use geranium oil is to mix 60 drops in one cup of olive oil and apply this fragrant mixture on the skin. This massage oil will also penetrate inside the body through the skin and can be useful for upset stomach, headache, and more serious problems. Suggestion: Keep your mixed Geranium body Oil in a dark amber bottle clearly labeled. This is good storage practice, and it will last a lot longer. Geranium oil is often used to fragrance soaps, creams, shampoos, etc. It blends well with lavender, rosemary, sage, frankincense, rose, sandalwood, bergamot, jasmine, juniper and citrus oils. Geranium oil is indispensible for a woman's beauty and hygiene.

I just read a post from 10 years ago!

Hello there! Do you remember these posts from so many years ago? It is very interesting to see how things change in one decade! Only ten  years ago, essential oils were a 'hippie dippie' strange voodoo language only cave dwelling witches and hags knew the magical powers of. Ha ha...well, maybe hags is too strong of a label.  However that is not the case any longer, is it?! Essential oil knowledge is sweeping the globe in leaps and bounds. The scientific evidence of positive feedback is piling up in mountainous stacks of positive proof that essential oils are the new rage in supporting a healthy lifestyle. How are you doing with this?  Did you fully jump onto the essential oil bandwagon or did you tip toe into the oils world? Where are you at right now? How are things going for you in life?  Honestly there is so much knowledge out there about using oils I feel we can look and search pretty much anything we are interested in and find successful options to su...

Education is Key!

Over the past year we have found that many people have heard about essential oils and have even used some of them. Some have been disappointed with the way the essential oils were explained to work, but they themselves did not have the same results. Some have used the oils only for the aromatic properties. And some have just put their oils on the back of their shelves and left them there, not really knowing what or how to use them. For all of these reasons, and others, we have continued to teach our monthly classes on the many uses of these wonderful oils. We have found that by EDUCATING the people on how to properly use these oils, they grow and learn and actually begin to teach others about the oils. The circle of knowledge only gets bigger and bigger. This is a dream come true for me and Katie. We can only see good coming from using essential oils, and teaching others how to become more self reliant with their home health and medicinal needs. Can you imagine paying yourself...

Law of Relativity Challenge/"homework"

The Law of Relativity states that: nothing is either good or bad until you compare it with something else. This means that whatever your situation or circumstance might be is neither good or bad until YOU decide to attatch a postitive or negative meaning to it. We have the agency to do that. Challenge: When something comes up in your life that you aren't quite liking, practice controlling your thoughts and emotions. Say to yourself: "This Just IS, its up to me to decide whether it is good or bad. This situation JUST IS, until I decide." Take a moment to ponder someone else that might be going through something worse than you, reflect for a moment on how it could really be worse- and notice how your situation all of a sudden becomes not quite as bad as you just thought it was. Know that all things are given for our benefit and learning and though you may not see the GOOD in it right now, you can know that it exists and be grateful for the learning you will soon be expeienc...
