Essential oils for sore ankles

 

I twisted my ankle a couple of days ago, and it was painful, sore and swollen. The combination of helichrysum, cypress essential oils and Deep Blue Rub made a huge difference 24 hours later (especially helichrysum - it cut down the pain almost immediately), and now 48 hours later, my ankle was well enough that I could do a yoga practice.
 
So thankful for essential oils!

Tea tree essential oils for energetic boundaries

I've started to apply a drop of tea tree oil to my head and the soles of my feet daily to help with energetic boundaries.


Some other tips about tea tree below from Elena Brower:
"Literally every day I find a way to use Tea Tree. Especially supportive for skin, from bites to blemishes, Tea Tree is a must in every household; use it from head to toe. Test to see if you need to dilute if you have sensitive skin - most can use it neat (undiluted) for all of the above reasons.

Tonifying (strengthening) to the 'Guardian Qi,' Tea Tree is helpful every day... diffuse with Lemon and Peppermint when you've been out and about to support respiratory function and clear any energetic congestion.

Speaking of which - Tea Tree is also incredible for energetic boundaries - great for misting around your body before and after any tough interactions, or applied to inner wrists and elbow creases."

DIY - hormonal acne mask

 


Do you break out when when your hormones are out of balance? I've noticed acne flare ups around my face and chin when my hormones ramp up.

The good news is, I've found two oils that have helped - Ylang Ylang and Lavender.

Ylang Ylang is known to be a hormone balancer. It has antiseptic and calming properties as well, it's perfect for hormonal breakouts.

Lavender is great for soothing the skin.

 
WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
 
1 tbsp of bentonite clay (don’t let this
come in contact with metal)
1 tbsp aloe vera gel
1 tbsp distilled water
3 drops of Ylang Ylang
2 drops of Lavender
 
INSTRUCTIONS:
 

1.Stir all ingredients until smooth.
2.Use plastic measuring spoons to measure bentonite clay.
3.Smooth mask on your clean and slightly damp face. Allow to dry for 10-15 mins.
4.Once your skin feels cool and tight, rinse it off with a soft washcloth and warm water.
5.Follow with a light moisturizer.
