The oil that covers all bases…

 

Peppermint essential oil does not only give you an instant pick me up when inhale a deep breath of it, but it has many other great health support which I have listed below, along with some great blends to try out in your diffuser or in a rollerball blend.

Many people have found as they get older their digestive issues start to surface, one deep breath from a bottle of peppermint essential oils eases nausea, opens respiratory pathways and awakens the senses.

One drop of peppermint massaged into the abdomen relaxes tense digestive muscles and releases the knots in the stomach contributing to loose stools or constipation, while simultaneously, supplying a beneficial aromatic experience.

Two drops of peppermint taken in a veggie capsule alleviates serve digestion distress and promotes healthy functioning of the whole system.

* If you place the peppermint straight on your tongue the oesophagus will capture the peppermint before it gets to the stomach, so for severe stomach concerns it’s important to use a veggie capsule.

Reflections relates to an issue:

Purposeful – Unfocused

The patterns of your purpose are embedded deeply within you and truly recognising your purpose can be a transformational and evocative journey.

Peppermint assists in reconnecting you to your vital passion, whisking you away upon the winds of purpose. It focuses your desire to extend yourself as a driving force and brings your mind to a place of excellence and symmetry, propelling you forward and upward.

Icy, cool, stimulating Peppermint sustains the energy required to maintain an inner attention on your highest potential, bringing balance and focus to your own idea of purpose.

When you are living passionately on purpose, the direction of your life will change..

Warning: The menthol content of peppermint essential oil causes a cooling effect on the skin and cause irritation if transferred to sensitive areas.
Always dilute with a carrier oil if irritation occurs and never try to wash the oil off.
The water will repel the oils and drive it deeper (content taken from Dr Mariza Snyder).
