Clover presents a fresh, herbacous scent.
Physical exertion, financial worries, traffic, family, health concerns and the relentless demands of a career contribute to muscle tension, headaches, digestive disturbances, insomnia and fatigue. Nervousness or nervous tension is a state of physiological uneasiness, anxiety, tension, distress or agitation. Essential oils are used for a diverse array of nerve calming applications including freshening the air, skin care, compresses, bathing, hair care and massage.
Instructions
1. Freshen the air with essential oils. Difficulty in breathing leads to frayed nerves and causes anxiety and stress. Relieve these conditions by adding 20 to 30 drops of essential oil to a home air humidifier. The refreshing scent of the oils sweetens the air and relieves breathing difficulties. Fragrant Lavandula angustifolia 'lavender', Juniperus communis 'juniper', Salvia sclarea 'clary sage' and Melaleuca teretifolia 'honey myrtle' present properties that are anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-infectioius and are soothing to irritated nasal passages.
2. Lavender is an important ingredient in many perfumes.
Relax naturally with the essence of lavender. Lavender (lavandula hybrida) presents a sweet, floral aroma and offers a diverse array of benefits and application. Tuck a lavender sachet inside your pillow case to encourage a deep and restful sleep. Tuck sachets in closets and linen closets. Lavender will repel moths, fleas, ticks and spiders while adding a fresh, inviting fragrance to bedding and clothing. Lavender can also be added to laundry rinse water. Use 20 to 30 drops added to the final rinse. Add 5 to 10 drops to a bedroom humidifier or vaporizer to add moisture to dry household air.
3. Prepare a skin soothing bath with your preferred essential oil scent. Even a combination of scents can be used, so experiment to find your favorites. Mix 10 to 20 drops of essential oil in 1 cup heavy cream and 1/4 cup organic honey. Stir until blended. Add the mixture to a warm bath, stirring the healing blend into the water. The oils are absorbed into skin helping to repair sun damage, soften and heal irritation and rough, red skin. Essential oils relieve itching from rashes or insect bites. The pungent vapors calm nerves. Helichrysum italicum 'everlasting', Commiphora myrrha 'myrrh' and Pelargonium graveolens 'bourbon geranium' are excellent choices for essential oils that calm skin irritations and calm frazzled nerves.
4. Dab Pogostemon on flex points and temples to calm nerves. Spicy and invigorating, Pogostemon cablin 'patcholi' is a member of the botanical family Labiatae (mint). The oil is obtained from the leaves of the plant by steam distillation. Aromatic influences include calming, relaxing, and stress relieving properties.
