Guest guest Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Hi All, I am facillitating part of a spiriutal retreat over the weekend. It will be a non-denominational, prayer and meditation centered event. I wanted to make a EO blend for the participants to take home with them to help them remember the essence of the weekend. Does anyone have suggestions for a nice blend that might have historic significance as a meditational aid? Thanks in advance, Mary Alana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Hi Mary, I hope you have a great time at the retreat. I've always tended to gravitate towards earthy, base type oils for meditation blends .. such as Sandalwood, Cedarwood (Atlas) and Vetiver. Frankincense and Clary Sage are always good to put into meditation blends too. Aside from the traditional esoteric/spiritual associations with those particular herbs/oils and the benefits they can bring to a meditation .... I don't want anything that is too " euphoric " or " giddy " or " stimulating " in there. I don't want to go to sleep either, but relaxed and focused is the place to be *Smile* Chris (list mom - hitting the hay early tonight - its been a hectic and rough week for me so far!

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I'm with Chris on this one, Frankincense and Sandalwood, nifty combo, but if it's not to be used on the skin I'd put in a hint of clove as well. Just a hint. Maybe a tinge of Myrrh. Depends on how earthy and grounding you want it to be.
