Essential Oils: Natural Remedies for Your Health
Within the last few years, there has been a rise in the demand and supply of natural, whole and organic products. More and more individuals are taking the time to do their own research and find out what exactly is in their food, drinks and personal hygiene products to see whether those ingredients will actually help their bodies rather than cause them more harm than good.
What many have found is that a lot of assumingly “healthy products” actually include genetically modified components and synthetic, chemically adapted ingredients that could negatively impact their health and the health of those they love.
Therefore, many individuals have turned away from these synthetically, created products and have alternatively turned to products such as organic and local produce, grass fed beef, natural skin products and even natural remedies for various health issues.
And one of these natural remedies that I have come to know and love are what are known as essential oils.
What are Essential Oils?
Essential oils are known as natural, aromatic compounds and products from the seeds, stems, roots, flowers, bark and other parts of the plants that may calm the senses, lift one’s mood and even purify the air. However, essential oils have also been used in many cultures and throughout history for:
- their medicinal and therapeutic benefits
- their cleansing and detoxifying properties
- as dietary supplements
- as natural remedies to various health issues
- in food preparation
- in beauty treatment
- for personal health-care practices
To derive the benefits of essential oils, they can be used in three ways: Aromatically (A), Internally (I), or Topically (I). Although not every oil can be used in all three ways, all three methods individually allow the oils to interact with your body in the way the oils were designed to, in order to provide your body with all the benefits the oils have to offer.
Quality Matters
However, what is essential to deriving the benefits of everything the oils have to offer is to ensure the oils are extracted carefully to retain their potency and purity. It is also important that the plants the oils are extracted from are harvested at the right moment and are grown in their indigenous environment to ensure purity and potency.
One of the ways to ensure a product reaches these standards is for it to be Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade (CPTG), meaning that the oil has been 3rd party tested and found that it contains no fillers or any artificial ingredients that would somehow dilute the potency of the oil and also contaminate it.
Now, although there are many brands of essential oils out there, I have come to find one particular brand that meets all the quality criterion above, and has given me a great experience with essential oils. For more information on that brand, be sure to fill out the contact form for a Free Essential Oil Consultation on my Essential Oils Page.
Personal Experience
Now, I’ve only been using a few of the essentials oils for a little over a month now, but the health benefits I received were beyond my imagination and expectation. In that short period of time, I’ve seen the oils help me personally in the following ways:
- To help soothe tendinitis in my wrist (This was the biggest way I’ve seen the oils transform me!)
- To boost my immunity and help diminish the symptoms of a cold I felt coming on
- To aid in my digestion and soothe my upset stomach
- To help me sleep more calmly/soundly at night
- To help nourish my hair and skin
- To balance and calm me during stressful/anxious times
- To ward off mosquitoes naturally
- To help in breathing/respiratory function when I did have a cold
Thus, it only makes sense to want to share these oils with others! I’ve decided to incorporate them into Made Well and invite others to experiment with the oils for themselves. I don’t want anyone to just take my word that the oils are amazing, I want them to experience themselves the health benefits and transformation I have found that these oils carry.
