Our EMOTIONS are the driving force behind our behaviours and how we’r feeling physically and mentally. Your every emotion is connected with your body’s organs whether it is your anger or fear.
When our bodies recognise a threat / stressful situation it releases the STRESS HORMONES – adrenal, cortisol & ACH. When happy / being rewarded it releases the HAPPY HORMONES – Serotonin, Oxytocin and Dopamine.
When these chemicals are released, it causes the body to react eg. Adrenalin – the fight / flight response with increased heartrate, blood pressure, affects digestion etc. The opposite for example is oxytocin – which is the cuddle hormone, improves sleep, bonding / relaxing.
WHAT IF you could change the way you think or react? ARE YOU FEELING overwhelmed; stressed; stuck/lost, depressed, can’t shake off that weight / pain no matter what you do????
Well with Emotional Aromatherapy we delve a little deeper – we look at what’s going on in your life, diet, exercise, aches / pains / discomforts / sleep pattern, look at imbalances in the body, devise a plan and try get to the root of the problem through use of Essential Oils, exercise / diet / healthy life choices.
Essential Oils help to impact the way you feel, think or react to someone, something or a situation.
Emotional Aromatherapy is the use of (high-quality) essential oils and their aromatic compounds to interact with the personal and emotional centres of the brain (the limbic and olfactory systems, primarily), allowing you to stimulate, calm, or even choose new ways of thinking, feeling or responding. They can of course be used to help with sleep, digestive upset, allergies, headaches, muscle aches, etc but that’s just an added bonus.
Every thought, emotion, conscious memory, personality trait, stress or every life lesson you have experienced is held in an area of the brain called your Limbic System. This is your emotional centre – its like a storage unit and processes current situations in the tiniest fraction of a second to help you determine, based on past experience’s what would be the best and safest way to think, feel or react now and all this information is stored in a way that’s accessible to you. These are on auto-pilot – embedded in your brain / your sub-conscious pattern.
You can change these thoughts / reactions
Your limbic system is always learning and adapting. Essential oils are just going to make that process faster and easier.
The Olfactory Bulb is located in your limbic system – this is your sense of smell and one of its jobs is to relay messages associated with aromas to your limbic system to write new patterns. Also, as its relaying those messages, the compounds within these oils themselves are interacting with the Limbic System, your hormones and cells – some of the oils are calming, others stimulating. You can literally choose how you want to feel, think and respond.
So other than the oils what can I do to help – how does this work!!
Well, we arrange an appointment and have a chat and see what’s going on, see what’s brought you here, what you are hoping to achieve. I will recommend an oil(s) / protocol followed by a reiki healing treatment. I generally recommend a few sessions – remember Rome was’nt built in a day!! And your issues definitely did’nt spiral up overnight – so we work together!! Of course you will have a little homework – remember I’m only assisting – it’s you and your body that will do the healing.

Our body has the ability to heal itself, so too can our mind, you can literally choose how you want to feel, think or respond.
