I will be teaching my Introduction to Traditional Chinese
Medicine course in August and I was looking through the notes to make a few
small changes.
When I was originally writing these notes a friend
encouraged me to write an energetic profile, from my perspective, for each
essential oil.
I am now vaporising Basil and Lemon and I share with you my energetic connection to these beautiful
oils!
The energetic properties of Basil:
- Basil’s effect on the nervous system is quick and
immediate. - It stimulates the mind and relieves mental fatigue.
- It clears away the “fog†of indecision, which can appear due
to overwork and exhaustion. - Its sweet smell awakens feelings of joy and dispels
depression.
The energetic properties of Lemon:
- Lemon essential oil helps you to find your zest for life and
when you are vulnerable it helps protect your outer shell – your skin - Its wonderful sharp, clear smell helps to “detox†the
mind. - It brings clarity of thought and helps disperse
confusion. - It is uplifting.
- It restores belief in oneself.
To vaporise these 2 oils:
- Add 4 drops of Lemon essential oil and 2 drops of Basil to
your burner - Add the boiling water
- Light the candle
- And enjoy
