Essential Oils TV

September is a month of many distractions. People tend to be running in different directions. We squeeze in time for our loved ones and return to some of the responsibilties we may have rested from in the summer. Some are back in school. Others have returned from vacations. We remember September 11th along with other events that all trigger many thought and feelings related to each person individually in September. Practically anytime we experience an aroma, our brain makes a connection based on a memory or experience we have with the smell (or a similar smell). Because of this, no two people will have an identical reaction to a single aroma or odor. Each of us has unique memories and experiences, so when we encounter an aroma, our brain will make a unique connection and produce a custom response. However, because some aromas have specific chemical compounds that are known to produce a general type of response (positive or negative, calming or uplifting), it is still possible to harness the power of smell to elicit a desired response. This is the basic idea behind using essential oils for designated purposes, like promoting motivation or focus.

At our meeting in this video we discussed hormones and essential oils. We went over much more than just essential oils. We discussed several strategies and later how essential oils could support these changes. Remember I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice. Out next meeting is coming up on 9/18. I look forward to seeing you there!
