Nurturing Autumnal Aromatherapy
Since the air has become a little crisper, I've begun to notice what appeals to my senses is changing. Across the States, the leaves are turning bright and rich shades ranging from golden to bordeaux. The air is becoming drier and flannels are coming out. People are beginning to prep for more time at home.
As massage and bodywork school is coming to an end this season, I've started to get creative with my treatments. Essential oils are setting different atmospheres than just a few weeks ago. Clients are picking different aroma options. As a result, the individualized selection needed a slight adjustment.
October Aromatherapy = bergamot and rose
This warming and grounding yet nurturing combination is a great way to connect deeper with the season. Try a self-massage with the oils anytime:
Method:
- 3-5 drops each essential oil per 2 oz. plain body oil
Procure:
Carrier Oil/Plain body oil: Aura Cacia - available at most natural grocery stores
Essential Oil: Intelligent Nutrients and Hylunia
