Morning Routine: Ningxia Red

by amaryllisturman

Good morning ☀️

I’m participating in a challenge to elevate my mind and body for my overall wellness.

I have gotten out of the habit of doing some of the things that keep me healthy.

So I’m rebooting my morning routine by drinking my Ningxia Red drink. I added ginger kombucha, 3 drops lime vitality, and 2 drops Red Shot.

NingXia Red Benefits- Just 1-2 ounces of this power juice a day power packed with nutrients keep your body running strong and help you flush out those toxins!
.
Red Shot Benefits- Cassia is great for the immune system and cardiovascular system, the citrus oils are all vitality oils that are immune system support powerhouses , and Spearmint Vitality is great for the digestive system and weight management.
.
Lime Essential oil Benefits- It is 100 % Bioflavonoid, supports the immune system, stimulates the detox pathways , and helps with the absorption of Vitamin C.

What is your morning routine?

Palmarosa and Lemon for your Laundry

by amaryllisturman

I used to use conventional dryer sheets or fabric softeners because I equated the floral scent to mean my clothes were freshly clean.

I was surprised to learn that these things have ingredients that may be irritants or carcinogens (aka bad stuff). And after I started making non toxic replacements like essential oils on dryer balls, my skin had less breakouts! Go figure.

I like Palmarosa + Lemon on my dryer balls because it’s citrusy and floral all together. My clothes smell like spring 😊.

Fun fact: Once known as Turkish geranium oil or Indian geranium oil, palmarosa was used for centuries by the Turks to adulterate the more costly Turkish rose oil 😏.

Keep calm and just breathe

by amaryllisturman

There are a lot of reasons to be anxious, freak out, or just plain worry. Not that it does any good.

Logically we know that worrying is a useless activity.

  • If you can fix the problem, don’t worry. Make a plan and fix it.
  • If you can’t fix the problem, don’t worry. Research what your options are and go from there.

Either way, don’t worry.

But sometimes, your brain doesn’t get the notice and you need a little assistance in calming down. That’s where essential oils can be extremely helpful.

I couple deep breathing exercises with essential oils that are known to have calming properties to help me find my center when life might have me off balanced.

Add drops to a 10ml bottle and fill with fractionated coconut oil (or carrier of your choice)

Release stress with tree oils

by amaryllisturman

I previously posted this in one of my facebook educational groups.

I liked it so much, I wanted to share here:

Scientific studies have shown that trees like pine, fir, cedar and cypress contain phytoncides such as alpha-pinene and beta-pinene (which make up the essential oils of many trees) and these were found to decrease levels of the cortisol stress hormone.

With that in mind, let me share what are my favorite 5 tree oils and why 🌲 🌳 🌲

🌲 Cypress: This oil is not only wonderful for releasing stored emotions, but it helps ease feelings of loss and creates a sense of security. I use in the diffuser because it has helped me to heal emotional trauma in the past. Currently it calms me emotionally, relieves anger and just helps life flow better.

🌲 Cedarwood: This oil’s powerful scent creates a relaxing, calming and comforting environment by stimulating the limbic region of the brain. It is my “Go To” each night for deep restful sleep 😴 I use sometimes in the diffuser with lavender and other times apply by itself neat to my wrists. I also use in my eyelash serum. If you want to do some light reading, google “Cedarwood and pineal gland” 😉

🌲 Northern Lights Black Spruce: This oil is grounding yet uplifting at the same time. I use this in the diffuser at night to relax and unwind. There’s is something very comforting about NLBS and orange for me.

🌲 Sacred Frankincense: This oil promotes confidence and purpose as the feelings of negativity disappear and stimulates the body’s immune system. I use Sacred Frank when I’m studying and meditating to keep my mental focus and allow for a deeper connection.

🌲 Sacred Sandalwood: The deep “woody” Sacred Sandalwood is intoxicating to me. I love the aroma and because of all it’s Oxygenated Sesquiterpenes, it will linger on the skin ALL day. I put a drop behind my ears when I feel I need a little extra clarity. I notice when I turn my head throughout the day, I get light whiffs which help me maintain my focus and vision.

So these are my Favorite 5! Are any of these in your list of faves?

Email me and I can help you purchase 😊

The Feelings Collection #bigemotions

by amaryllisturman

The Feelings Collection

The Feelings™ collection features six essential oil blends that inspire feelings of emotional well-being when diffused. Use in the morning and evening to promote peaceful thoughts and spiritual harmony.

Harmony™, 5 ml
Forgiveness™, 5 ml
Inner Child™, 5 ml
Present Time™, 5 ml
Release™, 5ml
Valor II™, 5 ml

-VALOR has been used to help empower the physical and spiritual bodies, bring courage, confidence and self-esteem and has also been nicknamed a chiropractor in a bottle.

-HARMONY is used to establish spiritual and emotional harmony within us as well as bringing a harmonic balance to the chakras of the body, allowing us to feel safe and secure.

-FORGIVENESS may help people move past barriers in life by bringing them to a higher spiritual awareness of their needs. Using this oil can lead one to forgive, forget, let go, and go on with their lives.

-INNER CHILD may stimulate memory response and help one reconnect with their inner-self leading to emotional balance. When a child experiences trauma or abuse, they disconnect with their inner child and this can contribute to a manifestation of issues that are often labeled as a mid-life crisis.

-RELEASE can enhance the release of memory trauma from the cells of the liver, where anger and hate emotions are stored. It also helps to release frustration.

-PRESENT TIME was specifically blended to help bring people into the moment. We must live in the moment in order to heal. We cannot live yesterday, we cannot live tomorrow, we must live today.

The oils in this kit are blends containing several incredibly wonderful and powerful oils like Angelica, Rose, Sandalwood, Hyssop, Ylang Ylang, Neroli, and Frankincense along with many more.

This kit isn’t just for people with crazy pasts who desperately need emotional support, this is for people who feel mundane, or are ready to make a change, or want to be more emotionally healthy!

The great thing about blends is that they are ready to diffuse! I put 2-3 drops of Forgiveness or Harmony in the diffuser if the hubs and I have had a disagreement. It helps me to let go of the negativity that was causing the feelings of discontentment.
