Great stuff

[Guest guest]

Hi Linda

Grapefruit is what they call a euphoric essential oil, in that it uplifts, lifts

the

spirits. It is thought that it stimulates the thalamus which then produces

enkephalins which cheer us up (and are pain killers too). Bit like jogging.

The

other citrus oils are not known as euphorics, but sweet orange is very happy and

cheerful. Other essential oils classified as euphorics are jasmine and clary

sage.

But then I guess that anything you really like might make you feel happy on a

cold

cloudy wintry wet day like this one. Probably better for you than coffee, but

then

I like that too.

I'll tell you whats helps on a wintery blah overcast

day...moving south! Thats what I did.

I just made a concoction of grapefruit, rosemary and

peppermint oil in a spray bottle of water I keep in

the fridge, feels good to spray it on the face and

body in the morning (wakes you up!) or at the end of

the day.
