Almost everywhere I go, I hear people commenting on the current economic crisis. What to do? How can we protect ourselves from all of the negative energy that is blasted at us when we talk to nervous friends, watch the news, or go to the grocery store and gas station and find that prices have risen again?
Here are some tips I use to keep myself balanced:
-
Instead of dwelling on the negative, I ask “So what do I want?”
-
I focus on positive action steps that I can implement TODAY. That may be as simple as turning off the lights as I leave the room, planning my driving route or giving attention to my home-based business.
-
I wear the essential oil blend Abundance as I pay my bills and go shopping.
-
I use stress relieving techniques like EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) and guided meditation along with applying or diffusing therapeutic-grade essential oils.
-
Everyday, I review what went right. I express gratitude for all that was good. That can involve making a quick phone call, thanking my husband for helping with the dishes or saying a prayer of thanksgiving for what I have.
-
Daydream about the future you want and take steps toward that reality.
-
SMILE…it makes people wonder what you’ve been up to!
One of my favorite essential oil blends, White Angelica, actually provides an energetic shield that blocks negative energy from affecting the wearer.
Application: White Angelica works great applied to shoulders. Breathing in its protective aroma by diffusing or wearing as a perfume is also very uplifting.
White Angelica contains:
-
Geranium is believed to be a shield from negative comments, ill intentions and meanness by embracing us with feelings of comfort and protection. The scent of geranium creates a secure place for us to reconnect to our true feelings.
-
Spruce oil brings calm assurance to those suffering from fear and anxiety.
-
Myrrh is an ideal oil for people who lie in bed and repeat the same thoughts again and again. It is believed that myrrh oil offers fortitude and courage.
-
Ylang Ylang has a beautiful aroma that shields when in love, protecting one from a broken heart. The oil is believed to balance male and female energy, bringing harmony to these very different sides of our personalities.
-
Hyssop aroma is believed to protect against pessimism and encourage clarity and balance.
-
Bergamot encourages feelings of strength and confidence, protecting one from fear and anxiety. Bergamot is ideal for long, difficult days of frayed nerves and continual frustration.
-
Melissa encourages strength and cheerfulness. When used with geranium (as it is in this formula), the two oils bring reassurance and quell feelings of insecurity.
-
Sandalwood oil protects one from being overly concerned about worldly possessions. It is believed to aid in meditation and prayer by encouraging serenity and insightfulness.
-
Rose possesses a beautiful aroma. The scent of rose protects against melancholy, grief and anxiety. It is particularly useful for those filled with grief after a loss.
-
Rosewood inspires protection and love.
