Mental Clarity

We have the day off harvesting today so I started my day with a sleep in. Am I getting old now that I consider getting up at 7:15am on a Sunday a sleep in?? I decided to put in a bit of time doing some writing and chose my diffuser blend accordingly. This blend is made with Sandalwood, Cinnamon Bark and Frankincense - and it smells stunning!!

Sandalwood and Frankincense are both often used to accompany prayer and meditation so you know that this is going to get you in the zone. Through their grounding and calming properties they help you to quiet the mind of unimportant chatter, so you can really focus in on what you are doing.

Cinnamon Bark and Frankincense both invite honesty and discourage falsehood. This allows for an intimacy and connection with the work we are doing and gives us a special edge.

Sandalwood, Cinnamon Bark and Frankincense combine with notes that are sweet, woody and spicy. I can feel myself relaxing and deepening my connection as I inhale the magnificent aroma. When I am more grounded and connected with myself, I find that I am able to express myself clearer, making the process more enjoyable.

Whether you are writing for yourself or others, try diffusing this while you work.

Apple Pie

As we start heading into the cooler months in Australia, we like to feel cosy and comforted at home - fire, hot chocolate, blankets, pie, Uggies... there are so many options.  I suggest putting this Apple Pie blend on. It smells delicious and sweet while stimulating all your senses with the memories of warm Apple Pie.  It makes me feel cosy and comforted from the inside out.

This blend combines Douglas Fir, Cinnamon and Citrus Bliss (Invigorating Blend) to produce the aroma of Apple Pie baking in the oven.  Douglas Fir being one of our tree oils, is great for grounding which is one of my most important requirements for a feeling of comfort.  The spicy aroma of Cinnamon is not only vital for Apple Pie, but it also provides a beautiful recollection of warmth.  The sweet notes of Citrus Bliss are wonderfully uplifting, helping with feelings of contentment.

I have a feeling that this could be in my diffuser regularly over the Autumn and Winter months.
