| Health Tip:Sharon Moran Symbiotic Vitamin Relationships |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Some, if not most, nutrients have a symbiotic relationship with other nutrients and trace nutrients. This relationship allows them to be absorbed, utilized and made available to the body in the proper ratios at the most opportune times. A few examples of this would be Vitamin D and calcium as well as Vitamin C with zinc and iron. How do you eat to provide the optimal diet (and nutrients) for your body at all times? The answer is the age-old response - “Eat a balanced diet.” I would go a bit further and say that a balanced diet includes a wide variety of food from many various sources. A mixture of raw fruits and vegetables would also be advantageous. In addition, raw foods provide many of the enzymes that the body requires for absorption and digestion. Eating for color (See August 2010 Newsletter) helps assure that a wide range of vitamins and minerals are being provided for the body. Certain essential oils, like the oil blend LeEternity, help the body absorb nutrients more efficiently. |

LeReconciliation | |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ingredients anthopogon, rose, violet leaf, ylang ylang, vanilla Affinity for
Resonance emotional, physical Application LeReconciliation makes a very nice perfume. It is excellent diffused, as a massage oil, or added to a bath. Aromatic Considerations The strength of LeReconciliation lies in helping us find perspective and peace by bringing us understanding and compassion. This empathy is like a warm blanket, covering ourselves and others. Emotional/Spiritual Aspects LeReconciliation can fill the deep well of loneliness we sometimes feel when our lives are being lived at a distance, physically or emotionally, from the home and heritage of our formative years. Sometimes we feel that who we have become is so different from who we were that our loved ones no longer have any idea who we are. We feel misunderstood, unappreciated, and isolated from those with whom we would like to share the depths of ourselves. The aroma of LeReconciliation helps us find peace with the past, joy in our relationships as they are today, and hope for the future of our connections to loved ones near to us or far away. LeReconciliation is a marvelous oil for grief and loss, especially if there were hard feelings or trauma in the relationship at the time of the parting. Physical Aspects LeReconciliation is a good oil for skin care and massage. If there are any physical ailments with roots reaching into relationships, this blend should bring relief—both to the emotions and the physical imbalances. Cautions This is a very mild and pleasant oil. It has no contraindications. |

LeWeightless | |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ingredients basil, grapefruit, goldenrod, green pepper, lemon, lime, sage Affinity for
Resonance physical, emotional Application LeWeightless is pleasant diffused, where it will eliminate odors and kill bacteria while being enjoyed for its emotional properties. LeWeightless can be used in the bath; be careful to use only 2 or 3 drops. This is an excellent essential oil blend for a full body massage. Be sure to dilute well for use in a massage. Aromatic Considerations The aroma of LeWeightless is uplifting. It stimulates positive and creative thinking. Emotional/Physical Aspects This delightful blend is designed to function on both the physical and emotional planes, even more than usual for essential oils which all seem to do this to some extent. LeWeightless increases metabolism, especially fat burning, and helps to dissolve cellulite. Emotionally it lightens the weight of our own negativity which is so often the trigger for ‘binge’ eating or junk food consumption. LeWeightless is used in programs for eating disorders such as anorexia. LeWeightless relieves stress, but it takes a minute. If you can remember to reach for the LeWeightless when you are craving that chocolate bar, then exercise a little self-control for a moment or two, you may find that you move on to something else in your life and the chocolate loses its allure!! This blend also has an effect on the mind, helping it to function more clearly and quickly. |

LeWhispering Hope | |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ingredients chamomile Roman, juniper, lemon, melissa blend, myrrh, spruce, ylang ylang
Resonance physical, emotional Application LeWhispering Hope should be diluted and applied on the outer edges of the ears, on the chest, heart, temples, solar plexus, back of the neck, and wrists. It is also good in the bath, diluted and massaged over the feet or as a massage oil for the whole body. It would be a unique scent to wear as a perfume. Aromatic Considerations The aroma of this blend promotes feelings of peace, security, confidence, and optimism. Emotional/Spiritual Aspects LeWhispering Hope should be used to stimulate feelings of hope and a sense of potential and achievement if one has become discouraged. This essential oil blend can help us turn around feelings of hopelessness and helplessness. This is the most effective oil for suicidal thoughts. It is particularly helpful for feelings of frustration we may have at other peoples’ choices and the impossibility of ‘stepping in and doing it right for them’. LeWhispering Hope can help you find peace in just standing by their heart and praying for them. There are many uses for this oil during a woman’s childbearing years. LeWhispering Hope can help when a young mother (or any one else, really) is feeling stressed and overwhelmed. It helps to create a more positive attitude and a sense of optimism. This blend can help a young woman understand and move past feelings of ambivalence or non-acceptance of a pregnanpregnancy. LeWhispering Hope is useful during certain stages of labor and delivery.

Grapefruit (Citrus racemosa) |
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ingredient In LeEverlasting, LeHeart Song, LeMy-Graine, LeSego Lily, LeSunburst, LeWake-Up LeWeightless, LePurify Therapeutic Properties tonic, digestive, antiseptic, anti-infectious, restorative Affinity For
Aromatic Considerations Grapefruit is uplifting to the mind and spirit. It is hard to be negative or anxious in the presence of this oil, because it promotes feelings of joy, confidence, and spontaneity. Grapefruit should be diffused or inhaled for performance stress or to cope with jet lag. Application Grapefruit should be diluted and applied to the feet or to areas of the body needing to release emotions, cellulite, or both. Emotional/Spiritual Aspects Grapefruit is a very joyous and positive essential oil. It can be a ray of bright light guiding us out of darkness and depression. Grapefruit is equally good for mental exhaustion and mental tension. Grapefruit seems to address the emotional issues of self-worth and discontent with one’s body that are so often a part of anorexia and other eating disorders. The aroma of grapefruit is particularly suited to people who, when tense or under pressure, eat as a means of relieving stress or finding comfort. Often, the driving emotion is frustration because their too high expectations have not been met in some way. If they reacted to their frustration with anger or blame of themselves or others, a layer of guilt is added to the frustration. Grapefruit is used in treatment programs for drug withdrawal and to cope with the after-effects of drinking too many alcoholic beverages. Physical Aspects Grapefruit detoxifies the lymphatic system. This makes it a useful tonic for many body systems. It is specific for water retention and the dissolving of cellulite. Grapefruit aids with gallstones, water retention, kidney and liver disorders. Grapefruit, diluted in water, can be used as an astringent face wash for acne. Grapefruit can relieve a migraine headache and return the energy system to normal after long jet flights. Grapefruit is one of the best oils for premenstrual water retention and headache. Cautions Grapefruit is photo-toxic. You should avoid exposing areas of skin to which grapefruit has been applied to sunlight or UV rays for at least 12 hours. |

Oregano (Origanum vulgare) |
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| General Information This is the same plant and species as the oregano listed below, but it is harvested in the wild rather than cultivated for use. There are those who believe that wild-crafted oils (and herbals) are stronger and more medicinal than cultivated ones. I have found that growing conditions vary from place to place in both cultivated beds and in the wild. The differences in quality may have more to do with the conditions under which the harvested plants grew rather than whether or not the plant grew wild or was cultivated. In a Biblical sense, when man left Eden he was given dominion over the earth and expected to till, cultivate, and improve it somewhat. Good essential oil growers are careful to grow the most vital and therapeutic plants possible. Their livelihood and reputation depend on their ability to optimize the medicinal value of their products. Often, wildcrated oils are not up to the standards of loved and cared for (cultivated) plants. This particular wild oregano is an exception. It is a very nice oil. Therapeutic Properties
Aromatic Considerations Oregano is not pleasant diffused by itself. However, the antimicrobial properties can be pleasantly diffused into the air as part of a blended oil formula. Application Be sure to dilute very well before applying to the feet or to the body. Emotional/Spiritual Aspects Oregano essential oil promotes a feeling of strength and stability. Physical Aspects Oregano, in either herbal or essential oil form, has strong antiseptic and antimicrobial properties. Oregano essential oil balances metabolism, strengthens the vital centers of the body, and is an immune stimulant. In the respiratory tract, oregano is useful for treating chronic bronchitis, respiratory infections, pneumonia, pulmonary tuberculosis, colds, and flu. General Information Oregano is an extremely beneficial and effective oil which has received some attention from the media lately. Unfortunately, too many reporters and announcers do not know the difference between therapeutic grade essential oils and oils which have been diluted with carrier type oils. DO NOT follow their suggestions and use large quantities at once. 2 or 3 drops of a pure essential oil is always sufficient. Cautions Oregano should be avoided or used very cautiously during pregnancy. This oil can cause extreme skin irritation if applied repeatedly without dilution. Oregano should be used with a little bit of caution when diffused. |

Sweet Orange (Citrus sinensis) |

Ingredient In
Aromatic Considerations Orange, sweet has a delightful fragrance. It promotes feelings of well-being and happiness. By itself, or as an ingredient in a essential oil blend, orange, sweet promotes restful sleep. Application The aroma of orange, sweet is an excellent remedy to alleviate nausea or morning sickness. It is sometimes helpful with these conditions to apply a drop or two of the oil behind the ears. Orange, sweet oil can be diluted and applied anywhere on the body. It is also a lovely oil to diffuse in your home or workplace . Emotional/Spiritual Aspects The emotions of frustration and discouragement block the flow of energy to and from the liver. Any block in energy creates tension.

Orange, sweet is an excellent oil for all of these conditions and emotions. Orange, sweet essential oil brings peace and happiness to the mind and body and joy to the heart. It provides emotional support to overcome sadness and courage to escape emotional and physical abuse. This oil re-establishes optimism and a sense of humor when they have become lost through abuse or sadness. Orange, sweet can make even the most mundane practical task flow along easily and enjoyably.

Although orange, sweet is a citrus, it is not considered photo-toxic. |
