What is your 2021 theme word(s) of the year? My 2021 theme words are:
· EMPOWER – I am an Inspiring, Intuitive, & Inquisitive leader sharing my gifts with others
· REVITALIZE– I am thriving daily! I am living my true-self life! I am joyful, balanced, and invigorated.
Each theme word is represented in a 10 ml rollerball essential oil blend! They are both powerful and give voice to my intentions. I use Empower during my morning ritual and Revitalize when I need additional support for my true self and vision! A quick swipe on my wrist, near my nose, and on the back of my neck does the trick! They both are daily reminders to focus on myself and my clients.
This year, in support of empowering each of you, I am offering to create an individualized essential oil blend reflecting your 2021 theme word. I love doing this so much and am blessed to share my tradition with you.
Now, I am going to geek out a bit about essential oils. During my time at Bastyr University, I dove into aromatherapy and essential oil topics such as chemistry, therapeutic properties, blending, and applications. Loved it! I use authentic, certified pure therapeutic grade essential oils. Authentic essential oils are produced by the whole plant organism based on nature and its environment (not synthesized in a factory). These essential oils are an everchanging mix of chemical combination that can be used to support our bodies in a variety of ways. For example, due to its chemistry, peppermint essential oil can be used to cool or warm you – depending on your body’s need. Understanding the plant chemistry helps me select the most appropriate blend supporting you and your theme word. Here are some quick notes on a handful of essential oil:
