A Blend That is "Sweet as a Rose"!

I am overjoyed to share this post with you today! 

Emotions are not something I talk about too often, they’ve always been a little hard for me to express.  Do you ever have one of those days (or weeks if I’m being honest) where you can’t explain it but you just feel all sorts of down?  Then it seems like once these feelings set in they are quite difficult to shake.  Let me tell you, I’ve been there. Recently I decided to try aromatherapy to pull me out of a funk.  After spending a few minutes in my oily corner I came up with this blend and immediately…

 FELL. IN. LOVE. 
​
“Sweet as a Rose” blend was designed to gently uplift spirits and soothe the soul, provide encouragement and hope, and lastly to facilitate self-love. 

This is simply too good to keep to myself, so I’m sharing my recipe along with why I chose each oil in it:
  • Sweet Orange: A sweet candy-like citrus aroma that is equally uplifting yet calming, known as the “happy” oil.
  • Lavender, Fine: A more refined and complex lavender which is calming, relaxing and relieving of nervous tension.
  • Lavender Flower CO2: A beautifully rich and highly aromatic lavender that is soothing, calming, relaxing, refreshing, promotes mental clarity, an excellent choice for emotional support and mental well-being.
  • Rose Otto: A little goes a long way with this powerful and fragrant gem that can be comforting to the senses and beneficial during times of duress.

For emotional support I turn to inhalers the most.  Inhalation is the quickest and most effective route to the brain and the act of inhaling forces one to breathe deeply which is a known stress reliever in itself.  This inhaler hasn’t left my pocket since I made it over a week ago and it continues to amaze me every time I use it!  It just keeps getting sweeter...  :)
