Essential Oils*:

Joy

Joy Essential Oil (EO) is one of my favorites! It makes me feel emotionally stable and even gives me a distinct sense of happiness. I found myself falling asleep with a smile on my face last night while diffusing Joy even though I had a trying night.

Lavender

Not only does Lavender calm your senses and promote relaxation, but it also eases headaches and migraines. I have found, personally, that Lavender protects against nightmares as well.

Release

I just received Release EO in my Essential Rewards package today (woot!) and it has quickly become one of my favorites. Young Living boasts that this is one of their most emotionally balancing oils they have. Quite a statement, no? I have found it to be so. As it is diffusing at this moment, I can tell you it is indeed incredible.

Valerian

Valerian has been clinically proven for its tranquilizing properties and calming effect on the central nervous system. Taking this EO as a supplement or diffusing it are both great ways to ease nighttime ailments such as nightmares, insomnia, anxiety, and restlessness.

Diffuse these oils (separately) while you sleep. Put a few drops in your hands… cup your hands over your nose and inhale. Then take your hands and rub them lightly over your pillow(s).

Joy Essential Oil

This essential oil (EO), diluted, should be used topically behind the ears, chest/above heart, wrists, temples, and neck as any normal perfume. As the name implies, this oil is excellent for bringing joy to the wearer and those in close proximity.

So check this out… I diffused Lavender two nights ago to help me sleep, and I didn’t have a single nightmare! If I did, I don’t remember, which is a good thing, trust me. Those dreams take an emotional toll on me. So last night, I really needed my beloved Joy, so I diffused that while I slept… Again, no nightmares and a good, cleansing sleep. At this very moment, I am diffusing Release, which is now a fav!! It’s said to be the most emotionally-stimulating and healing essential oil.

Awaken

This is one of my favorite essential oils (EOs) so far!! I absolutely love the smell and how its fragrance empowers me. I like to wear it (diluted with witch hazel) as a perfume. As the name implies, this oil is excellent for bringing emotional balance to the wearer and those in close proximity.
