    "Do feel free to share this newsletter with friends, family, neighbours... Many thanks :-)"

     

    What is corona-virus (COVID-19)?

    Covid-19 is part of the large family of corona-viruses.

    This new virus, appeared in China late 2019, affects your lungs and airways, creating illnesses ranging from a common cold to much more severe conditions with difficulties and shortness of breathing.

    If you are in good health condition and get this virus, we might have to stay in bed few days with a big cold and manage your fever, general feeling of weakness, fatigue, headache, coughing, feeling unwell... and it will pass.

    But if you have chronic diseases, your immunity is low and in case of covid-19 presence, you could develop severe conditions.

    That is why government asks people in contact with elderly people and immunodeficient beloved to be very careful.

    Tips from a non-medical therapist

    I am not a doctor. It means, I can not make medical prescriptions.

    I just share advices following my own experience and my clientele one.

    To leave people under fears crashes immunity down to the ground!
    Then bang, people get sick...

    So, rather than to react to fears, I decided to have a proactive approach.


    Revitalise ourselves

    • Good Sleep
    • Connect with Nature
    • Eat healthy
    • Manage fear
    • Move
    • Vitamins and supplements

    Those principles boost our immunity :-)

     

    Have a good sleep

    Resting is not optional. During our sleep, our body

    • regenerates itself
    • repairs
    • our vital functions recover better

    Naps are hardly recommended too, if you can.

    Connect with Nature

    It is not because we can not meet people, that we are not able to go and connect with Nature.
    I live by the ocean and go by the sea to get fresh windy air, and it helps me to get more awareness.

    Eat healthy

    • Get fresh organic veg and fruits, full of natural vitamins and healthy sugar
    • Be in consciousness when eating and chew well before to swallow. You will eat less. Your metabolism spends less time digesting and more time to build a good immunity
    • Avoid, acid diet, gluten and processed sugar

    Chinese medicine says to leave the dinner table not totally full as stomach will have space to process what has just been eaten to not overwhelmed digestive functions.

    Manage emotions and fears

    Those hard times force us to slow down and reflect.

    Why not to start new practices?
    Soothe your mind with

    • relaxation
    • box breathing
    • self-massages
    • yoga
    • qi-gong...

    You will find ***Some Useful Exercises*** at the end of this article.

    Why not to attend virtual learning and get new skills?
    Why not start journalling?

    Bach and homeopathy remedies are quite efficient too :-)

    • Cherry Plum is a Bach remedy for those who fear losing control of their thoughts and actions and doing things they know are bad for them or which they consider wrong. Teaches trust in one’s spontaneous wisdom and the courage to follow one’s path.
    • Arsenicum Album is a homeopathic remedy that is very useful for anxiety about health, disease, germs and death. People who would benefit from this remedy are people who see the world as threatening and chaotic.

    Essential oils

    • all citruses, basil, pine, eucalyptus, lavender, cypress, Juniper, sandal wood, cedar wood, frankincense, tea tree, ravintsara, peppermint...
    • Follow the dosage given by your burner supplier and drop few drops of each in a cotton fabric, that you leave on a heater source. Essential oils are volatile, so use t heat to multiply their diffusion

    Move

    • Regular physical activity decreases nervous tension, stress and bring great satisfactions to push yourself a bit further your comfort zone
    • Even if exercises classes are now closed, at least in Galway, I am sure you have favourite exercises that you can do at home
    • Just move :-)

    Super foods & food supplements

    Those below are super warrior to boost immunity

    • Propolis
    • Grapefruit extract
    • Vitamin C
    • Vitamin D
    • Vitamin E
    • Selenium
    • Zinc
    • Co Q10

    Those are just examples, please do feel free to contact your therapist to get more directions. Thanks :-)

     

    *** Some useful exercises ***

    And use social medias to learn new skills :-)

    Hope it helps you to be more proactive to the aim to staying bright and grounded in those hard times.

    Feel free to share with friends, if you think those infos are relevant :-)


    Talk to you next Sunday :-)

  • My Emergency Essential Oils Kit

    My Emergency Essential Oils Kit


    Dear Aroma Fan,

    What do you have in your medicine cabinet?

    I can not talk for Irish people, but in France, lots of people store a massive amount of various types of medications that they sometimes do not even use.
    You know the famous "just in case"!!!!

    Rather than having unused conventional medications, I would like you to consider to have few essential oils bottles to built an emergency essential oils kit.

    NB: I am not against conventional medications and medicine. But my first choice always goes for natural products and if it does not work (very rarely, I have to say) then I call my GP and get an appointment :-)

     

    Alternative Medicine

    Nowadays, alternative medicines get very popular.
    More than one third of people use them going to the therapist and/or on their own.

    In alternative medicine, plants can be transform to make:

    • homeopathy granules
    • Bach floral remedies
    • herbal teas
    • mineral powders
    • etc...
    and the topic we love... distilled plants create essential oils!

    Combine Aromatherapy & Homeopathy

    Essential oils are very strong molecules. And if you use homeopathy remedies at the same time than essential oils, the last ones can suppress the subtle action of homeopathy remedies.

    It doesn't mean you have to use one or other but if you want to combine their actions, better to be aware of:

    • Store essential oils botlles and homeopathy remedies in different places
    • Use your essential oils at least 1 hour after taking your homeopathy remedies
    • If you use essential oils first, take homeopathy remedies 2 to 2.30 hour after using essential oils

  • My Healthy Home Sweet Home

    "My Healthy Home!"


    Dear Aroma Fan,

    Since I have been using essential oils in 2002, I always try new ways to use them.

    And If you are like me and blend your owns, you have certainly realised that a single essential oil can have several uses.

    Today, lets talk about household products and how to clean your house up to bottom with a 10ml bottle full of pure organic and sourced essential oils!

    Yes, a 10ml bottle :-)
     

    The Household Products

    If you shop in supermarkets, you might have noticed the massive universe of household products for home maintenance. 

    But have you noticed how they smell?

    Household Products Ingredients 

    Those products very often conceal derived pollutants to the environment which have a massive impacton our health, and not only on the environment.

    To cope with this real concern, I use essential oils.
    They offer an effective alternative devoid of toxic effects.

    Their everyday use is a sign of well-being, health and a source of vitality.
     

    A Natural Healthy Breathing

    The air quality is a major concern for public health. Many air pollutants are outside but also inside homes.

    The respiratory tract is the most fragile interface of the body.

    Asthmatic and allergic people with chronic bronchopulmonary infections are particularly susceptible to all molecules and particles carried by air currents and pollutants.
     

    What says the WHO about Derived Pollutants

    The World Health Organization (WHO) states that indoor air isabnormally loaded VOC (volatile organic compounds) such as:

    • Benzene (tobacco, gasoline vapor)
    • Toluene, acetaldehyde and formaldehyde (pressed wood , particles or fiber panels, glue, tape, tobacco smoke)
    • Naphthalene (found in dyes, pharmaceuticals, insect repellent such as mothballs)

    Proven or strongly suspected, many of these VOCs favor headaches, miscarriages, neurological and endocrine disorders and also certain cancers.
     

    How to Depollute?

    If essential oils have no capacity for the depollution process some plants are very helpful on this subject.

    And if you combine plants and essential oils, you really improve your air quality.

    NOTE:
    • It is important to note that natural volatile aromatic molecules synthesized by plants does not form part of these synthetic and petrochemical VOC
    • Studies also show that people who live close to a forest have a better immunity than others
    • The volatile organic compounds of natural and plant origin that float in these wooded atmospheres seem to have excellent health benefits
    • Essential oils diffusion is highly recommended for everyone BUT 
      • Asthmatic or allergic people should only use essential oils without irritating respiratory impact choosing Lavender, Geranium, Katafray, Citrus, Pines...


    Depolluting Plants

    NASA has selected more than 100 plants with depolluting properties.
    They can be used as a filter for the air space stations, such as the spider plant, Boston fern, ficus, spatifilium, pothos, philodendron, cyclamen...

    Based on the principle that metabolism plants capture certain pollutants such as ammonia, toluene, benzene and other VOCs.

    So, they gradually purify the atmosphere.

    However, their performances are limited. This is why it is important to ventilate regularly the air housing.

    Warning:

    • Do not sleep in a from with plants as photosynthesis stops by night
    • Plants salt out carbon dioxide and absorb oxygen while restoring moisture
    • So it is not safe for the breathing of the sleeper 

    Tips for a Safer Environment

    By precautionary principle and prevention, it seems useful to reduce the sources of toxic pollutants and to boycott certain products unsafe for the respiratory tract.

    We ALL should get some ecological and effective habits, such as:

    • Airing 10 minutes a day your house
    • Avoiding to tinker inside
    • Move towards natural cleaning products
      • White vinegar and lemon juice (boiling, it is even more radical on limestone) to de-scale and sanitize surfaces

    Other alternatives:

    • The Marseille soap flakes are very effective for laundry and cleaning surfaces
    • Baking soda can be added to increase the effectiveness of stain removal or cleaning (do not use for wool, silk or aluminum objects)
      • On the rebel fat deposits (stove, hood, hob), use it pure and add a little lemon juice or white vinegar juice
        • It forms an effervescent foam which solubilizes deposits

     

    Aroma Tips :-)

    You can also add some essential oils to provide pleasant fragrances.

    • All species of Pine, Ravintsara, Cajeput, Eucalyptus create fresh atmospheres, invigorating and stimulating breathing
    • Lemon and Bergamot are milder cleansing, fruity and soothing
    • Clove and Cinnamon offer deodorising fragrances that enhance the overall flavor of the synergies and exhibit unique properties to fight against bacteria, viruses, molds and dust mites
    • The essential oil of lemon Verbena is particularly recommended to eliminate mites, fungus and mold
      • Use it in the bathroom to avoid fungal nail infections from spreading among family members
      • Aeration of the bedrooms, laundry, linen at 60° with a rinsing solution (a glass of white vinegar + 30 drops of lemon Verbena)
         

    My Formula for a Healthy Home!

    In a 10ml glass bottle with a dropper, poor:

    • 120 drops of lemon Verbena
    • 120 drops of Sweet Orange essential oil
    • 50 drops of Scots Pine essential oil
    • 10 drops Ravintsara essential oil

    Properties:

    • Sanitizing, air purifying, support immunity occupants (atmospheric scattering)
    • Mild antiseptic surfaces, floors and fabrics, fight against mold, bacteria and fungi (spray on surfaces)
    • Deodorizer ambient air, drawers or closets (local trash, shoes)
    • Participates in the fight against mites and reduces risks of allergic reactions (bedroom)

    Different ways to use it:

    • For diffusion
      • Up to 10 drops in the water supply of the diffuser for 15 minutes
        • Repeat every 2 hours
        • Do not diffuse essential oils babies and asthmatic and allergic people
    • For floors
      • for 1 liter of warm water, dilute 20 drops of this synergy in the ecological cleaner liquid soap

  • My oils fly with me :-)

    Life is full of ups and downs

    "One minute you feel on top of the world.
    Everything is going great.
    Then all of sudden, everything is falling down.
    And nothing is going right."
    Jesse Eker

     

    It is what happened to me, almost 3 years ago when mum rang to tell that dad has just passed away. Went for exams and found a new home.

    My daughter says at that time, "Daddo flies in the sky".

    ***

    At the moment, I am travelling to Paris to complete the last module of the Chi Nei Tsang practitioner training.

    I have been traveling once a month since last September with tonsils that don't like air conditioning.

    To keep them safe, out of germs and bacterias, I travel with a small spray full of essential oils made with anti-fungal, viral, infectious, immune stimulant properties.

    Germs and bacterias are vicious, especially in a plane. You can not ESCAPE!
    So many people from different countries trapped in a closed environment breathing the same air. So amazing for creating a mutant germs cocktail!!!

    But essential oils are very volatile and also travel very well and quickly through air conditioning ;-)

    An aroma bodyguard spray

    This formula is suitable for children, pregnant, nursing woman or epileptic people :-)

    For a 15 ml bottle

    •  Ravintsara (Cinnamomum Camphora) ~ 20 drops
    •  Ginger (Zingiber Officinalis) ~ 10 drops
    •  Tea Tree (Melaleuca Alternifolia) ~ 20 drops
    •  Petit Grain (Citrus Aurantium ssp Amara) ~ 15 drops
    •  Niaouli (Melaleuca Quinquenervia) ~ 10 drops
    •  Alcohol (vodka or 60 degrees modified alcohol) ~ top up the bottle

    Use it like a perfume

    • One or two sprays before getting in the plane
    • Spray your hand palms, rub them to get rid of alcohol & deeply breath in and out 3 times
    • Avoid eyes and mouth spraying

    In case of Jet lag

    If you have to cope with jet lag during your journey, this formula works quite well:

    • Lemon (Citrus Limon)
    • Peppermint (Mentha Piperita)
    • Ginger (Zingiber Officinalis)
      • In equal part in a bottle (10ml for instance, easy to travel with)
      • 1 drop 4 times a day for 3 days in intake with honey, sugar or bread
      • or
      • Deeply breath from the bottle if you don't feel comfortable to take in intake

    If you have a tiny budget, and only can buy one essential oil, then buy

    • Cinnamon (Cinnamomum Zeylanicum) essential oil
      • 1 drop 4 times a day for 3 days or deeply breath from the bottle 

    This formula is for adult only

     

    If you travel for Valentine's, Safe travel.

    Warmly, Céline ;-)
