Guest guest Posted June 24, 2002 Report Share Posted June 24, 2002 , I'm into EO's (essential oils) big time, but only the therapeutic grade ones. I teach classes,I've found so many helpful ways to use them. What kind are you starting with? Do you know the difference in synthetic vs therapeutic? If you have any health problems you may wish to use the pure plant oils without other chemicals that can aggrevate the immune system. ANYTHING we put on our skin goes into our blood stream, circulates and is filtered through the liver, many things we can't control but a pure plant oil will bind with pollution to help digest and eliminate it. GO SLOW, its call detox and can be unpleasant, slow down on the use of oils and drink pure water. I got the whole house filter so I don't have to bathe in chlorine any more (it slows the thyroid). We even added a smaller faucet at the kitchen sink to flavor the water with a packet of EO that can be taken internally. ALWAYs use caution with any you use internally, to eat or drink. Even some food grade EO's are not as pure as therapeutic grade. We don't want more toxins in our system. Even my kids rub the pure oils on for tummy aches, sore knees. My dog had breast cancer, was given 2 months to live 2 years ago and all I did was give her therapeutic frankincense on a doggie biscuit. I can't go in perfume or body work stores, the artificial smells give me a headache no matter how pretty they are. Found out I'm chemically sensative but not to EO's If you really get into them here's a link for some of my info http://www.anaturalplace.com/aromainfo.htm some good books available too when you are ready for more and Flower Essences are very helpful with the emotional component of life. I took the Bach Certification 2 levels, saving up for the last level. Very easy to use, in Europe they use them as medicine inspite of not even being a " drug " . Dr Bach researched and created the Bach Remedies, his original recipe is not sold as Ellon, his nurse changed the Bach brand so his daughter started her own under Ellon to go back to his formula. http://www.anaturalplace.com/bach.htm is my page for reference to site we used in our classes. Also, lots of helpful books. When the doctors gave up on me it was the flower essences and essential oils I turned to for help and would not be here. My stomach was so upset for 9 weeks I could not eat, forced myself to drink soy milk, they told me to get my affairs in order, then I started taking Megazyme, and my appetite came back, it quit hurting and I was able to go back to school for my LMT. I took the oil Clarity and put it on a napkin on my desk when we studied and took the test, we all passed and I was able to maintain an A average inspite of my fibro fog. I didn't tell anyone I had FM, just wanted to see what I could do to get my life back. Hope this helps, you are on your way to lots of fun and interesting experiences!
