How to Use Essential Oils This Christmas Season: DO’s

The holidays bring joy, but they can also bring stress, sniffles, and the need for self-care. Essential oils can be a wonderful addition to your Christmas season if used safely and effectively. Here’s how to make the most of them:

  1. Ingest with Care:
    Only ingest essential oils that have supplemental facts on the label, indicating they’re safe for consumption. A drop of food-grade peppermint oil can be a festive addition to hot cocoa or tea!
  2. Dilute Smartly:
    Use carrier oils, such as coconut or almond oil, for persistent burning or sensitive skin. They’ll help dilute the oils while keeping your skin nourished.
  3. Store Properly:
    Keep your essential oils in a dark, cool space to maintain their potency and shelf life. Treat them as you would Christmas cookies—safe, secure, and ready for use!
  4. Daily Care:
    Incorporate essential oils into your health routine. Lavender for relaxation, eucalyptus for clearer airways, or frankincense for grounding during this busy season.
  5. Go Easy:
    Remember, less is more. Diluting oils with a carrier and applying them more often is better than overusing a concentrated amount.
  6. Share the Love:
    Essential oils make thoughtful holiday gifts! Create personalized blends for loved ones or share your favorite uses to help others stay merry and bright.

By following these tips, you can safely and effectively enjoy the magic of essential oils this Christmas. Whether it’s diffusing holiday blends, soothing winter skin, or adding festive aromas to your gatherings, essential oils are a gift that keeps on giving! 🎄✨

Health Proverb

Better Living, Health Proverb, Inspirational, , , , , , , , , , ,

The proverb “In health there is liberty. Health is the first of all liberties, and happiness gives us the energy which is the basis of health” comes from Henri-Frédéric Amiel, a 19th-century Swiss philosopher and poet. Amiel, deeply influenced by his introspective nature and the Romantic movement, often reflected on the relationship between the human spirit, well-being, and freedom.

Amiel lived during a time of profound social and political change, including the rise of individualism and the importance of personal fulfillment. He recognized that true freedom—liberty to pursue one’s goals and passions—depends on good health. Illness or physical limitation, in his view, could constrain not just the body but also the mind and spirit, depriving individuals of the ability to live fully and independently.

Happiness, for Amiel, was closely tied to energy and vitality, which he believed were essential components of health. A joyful outlook on life fosters resilience and physical well-being, creating a cycle where happiness sustains health, and health enables freedom. This perspective reflects Amiel’s broader philosophical themes: the interconnectedness of mind, body, and soul, and the importance of nurturing all three to achieve a life of balance, liberty, and fulfillment.

Arborvitae: The Tree of Life

Essential Oil, Poem, , , , ,

Arborvitae, the tree of life,
Majestic, ancient, wisdom rife.
Its fragrant wood, a gift profound,
Preserves, protects, and stands its ground.

To Native hands, this tree was kin,
A sacred bond, deep roots within.
Its oils they used, its strength revered,
A guardian where threats appeared.

For tools, for homes, for sacred flame,
Arborvitae upheld its name.
Its heartwood strong, immune to time,
Resisting rot, decay, and grime.

With lemon’s zest, it guards and shines,
A polish pure, where beauty aligns.
A spritz to shield from nature’s harms,
A balm to calm with soothing charms.

In forest’s hush, its oils ignite
A tranquil peace, a meditative light.
Its essence speaks of strength and grace,
A timeless guide in life’s vast space.

O tree of life, with branches wide,
Your ancient wisdom will abide.
From Native lands to modern care,
Arborvitae’s gifts are everywhere.

How to Use Essential Oils: Burns

Better Living, Essential Oil Information, , , , , , ,

Burns can be an unfortunate part of the Christmas season, whether it’s a momentary mishap by the fireplace, an accidental brush with a hot stove while baking cookies, or even a sunburn from snowy skiing adventures under a winter sun. Essential oils, when used correctly, can provide soothing relief and support healing.

How to Use Essential Oils for Burns:

  1. Minor Burns:
    • Gently apply 1-2 drops of lavender oil to the affected area to reduce pain and inflammation.
    • Cover the burn with a cloth soaked in icy water to further cool and calm the skin.
  2. Prevent Peeling:
    • Mix 3-4 drops of lavender oil with aloe vera gel to moisturize and soothe.
    • Apply every few hours to help prevent peeling and promote healing.
  3. Sunburns:
    • Combine 10 drops of lavender oil, 1 drop of peppermint oil, and 1/4 cup of water in a small spray bottle.
    • Shake well and spray on the sunburned area for a refreshing and calming effect.

Why Lavender and Peppermint?

  • Lavender oil: Renowned for its calming and healing properties, it’s perfect for soothing irritated skin and reducing redness.
  • Peppermint oil: Adds a cooling sensation that helps alleviate discomfort, especially with sunburns.

While burns can disrupt the holiday cheer, these simple, natural remedies offer quick relief and gentle care. Always remember to consult a healthcare professional for severe burns or if you’re unsure about treatment. This season, keep the focus on comfort and joy—and a little lavender oil in your holiday toolkit!

Essential Oils in the Bible

Essential Oils in the Bible, Oils in the Bible, , , , ,

In 1 Chronicles 9:29, certain people were given the important job of taking care of the items used in worship at the sanctuary. This included managing and overseeing the sacred tools, as well as the supplies such as fine flour, wine, oil, frankincense, and spices. These items were essential for worship and ceremonies, showing their special role in connecting people to God.

Health Proverb

Health Proverb, , , , , ,

The Spanish proverb “Limit your desires and you will improve your health” reflects the wisdom rooted in centuries of observation and simple living. Its backstory likely arises from the traditional Spanish emphasis on moderation and balance, particularly in a society historically shaped by scarcity and hard work.

In rural Spain, where resources were often limited, overindulgence in food, drink, or other pleasures was seen as harmful—not just to one’s body but also to one’s well-being and community. Desiring too much could lead to greed, stress, and unhealthy habits, disrupting the harmony essential to a fulfilling life. Limiting desires meant embracing contentment with what one had, fostering mental and physical health. This principle aligned with the holistic understanding that moderation promotes longevity and resilience, values that were crucial in the face of life’s unpredictability.

The proverb serves as a reminder that simplicity and self-restraint are key to a healthier, more peaceful existence, an idea as relevant today as it was in the past.
