Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 Me again! I forgot to mention not to get oils in your eyes. It will BURN and hurt. Flush with a carrier oil or milk. Rub fingers with lemon juice to clean the oils off. There is another way but I forget just now. I'm not an aromatherapist though I may continue to study and become one. I don't even play an aromatherapist on TV. Everything I mention should be researched BY YOU before you use it. I have not personally tried every blend I will share. And now....the yummiest blends. My gift to you. For a hectic time in your life when you want balance and relaxation while staying focused: 8 drops grapefruit 1 drop black pepper 1 drop ylang ylang I'm helping my kids' theatre troupe put a play in a theatre festival. Costuming, Publicity, rehearsals - you name it. They should name this blend after me. " Dawne's blend " b/c I wear it in my personal scenter for about 5-6 hours a day. It works folks! For cellulite 15 mls carrier oil [fractionated coconut oil] 4 drops grapefruit 3 drops cedarwood (for some reason patchouli comes to mind also. perhaps as a sub. for cedarwood) You need to use regularly. I'd say once a week and watch for results. Athlete's foot 5 drops tea tree 2 drops peppermint [for adults] 1 tablespoon sea salt great foot bath Again, water will not dilute E.O.s Add to salt and shake to disperse. Then add to water. for a foot powder: 5 dr. tea tree 2 dr. peppermint 2 TBSP cornstarch 1 TBSP baking soda Cold sores 2 dr. tea tree 5 mls aloe vera gel Stretch marks: 4 drops neroli 4 drops lavender 5 mls Apricot kernal oil 10 mls jojoba When battling jealousy: eucalytpus and lemon this is like a cold shower - a real wake up call and helps to clarify things For panic: lavender and ylang ylang mood swings: lemon and lavendear with a touch of peppermint [for adults only] insomnia: 1 drop lavender and 3 drops orange on cotton ball in pillow case **Neroli and ylang-ylang are good sedative oils. they relax and are also aprodiasiacs. sometimes the best boost for intimacy is to relax so you can't go wrong. I will share other good combos that were mentioned during the lecture. I don't have proprotions. For asthma - Eucalyptus/Tea Tree/Orange in a pot of water on the stove. LOTS of water on very low heat. All E.O.s are flammable. Use caution and common sense. My 10 year old daugther is using an asthma blend diffused in her room at night. It was blended for me. I don't know the ratios. Lemon Ravensara Tangerine SHE LOVES IT!! We've used it 2 nights so we aren't yet looking for results. Will keep the list posted in about 2 months. I use ONE drop on the pad. NOTE: My wellness center is fab! You tell them your needs/concerns and they give suggestions. They blend right there for you which is a life saver. I would love to have Ravensara and Tangerine oils but I didn't have the money at that time. For about $6.50 I got my daughter what she needed, professionally blended. Also, they give options and you can smell them all before you make your choice. I hope all of you have such a resource. Eucalyptus/Peppermint in diffuser for adults to boost respiratory system. For confidence: neroli/ylang ylang Stress relief: neroli/bergamot Focus and confidence: neroli/grapefruit/basil Liver tonic: lemon/grapefruit After sports blend [use regularly, don't wait for injury] grapefruit oil removes lactic acid lavender oil For teething lavendar in jojoba oil. rub on outside of face where you suspect the pain is. so for lower back teeth you'd gently massage the jaw area. OH, and people on any medications to thin the blood.... NO E.O.s! General immune boost: peppermint/carrier/lemon in the area of your throat Something was said about diabetes and the pancreas. My notes MAY BE WRONG. do the research! a personal scenter tucked in bra or pocket of peppermint/lemon. I have here that it helps liquify the blood and prevent vericose veins. Also I remember them saying that you should not massage vericose veins. The #1 blend for diabetes lemon/ylang ylang for depression: bergamot irritability: lavender/ylang ylang stubborness 5 lavender/1 peppermint For new beginnings eucalyptus and lime [i LOVE LIME! if you don't have it, go buy it!!] There is another blend to help you when 'in a rut' but I can't find it in my notes or recall it. Anyone have suggestions? A bit on carrier oils grapeseed oil should have no smell. if it smells, it's gone rancid. jojoba lasts a long time. buy what you need even if buying in bulk will save you some money. throwing out bad oils won't save you any moolah.
