WHERE DID AROMATHERAPY BEGIN?

Aromatherapy has been used by mankind for many centuries. The book of Exodus in the Bible records the instructions that God gave to Moses telling him to prepare a holy anointing oil by mixing liquid myrrh, sweet-smelling cinnamon, sweet-smelling cane, cassia and olive oil. (Exodus 30:22-25)

***

WHAT ARE ESSENTIAL OILS (EOs)?

The characteristics of essential oils include:

1. Essential oils are essences extracted from plant material. For example lavender essential oil is extracted from the flowering tops of the lavender plant.

***

HOW CAN I USE LAVENDER ESSENTIAL OIL TO MANAGE STRESS?

Basic Christian Stress Management Course

2011-06-18T23:24:00.000-07:00

Buy Basic Christian Stress Management Course from Amazon

The Basic Christian Stress Management Course is a self paced training course that teaches you how to manage stress effectively by combining Christian Biblical principles and medical relaxation techniques with aromatherapy which uses natural essential oils for their healing benefits.

EXCERPT
Biblical Tip #1 Pray
The first thing that you should do when you are faced by any stressful situation is to pray and ask God what you should do about it. Seek His direction first and Do not be wise in your own eyes. (Proverbs 3:7) Even in an emergency, cry out to Him for He says, Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know (Jeremiah 33:3)and these fresh insights will help you make more constructive decisions.

As you pray for your stressful situation, you have to pray with the confidence that God is listening to you and He will answer your prayers. Pray confident of His help because the Bible assures us that We do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. (Hebrews 4: 15-16)

Therefore, even if you are the only one praying for yourself and even if you have made many big mistakes, you can still pray with confidence and God will listen because He is merciful and He will help you in your hour of need.

In addition, remember that He cares for you and you do not have to develop migraines from carrying mental burdens that are too heavy for you because all you have to do is to Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you. (Psalm 55: 22)

***

Medical Tip #1 Breathe Deeply
Abdominal breathing or diaphragmatic breathing or deep breathing is one of the fastest and easiest way to counter act the body’s stress response.

Abdominal breathing has been found to be effective in reducing muscle tension and heart rates which increase when someone is stresses.

It has also been found to be beneficial in the management of stress related headaches, fatigue and panic attacks.

Abdominal breathing is a very simple relaxation technique as all you have to do is to loosen your clothing, lie down in a quiet and place your hand on your abdomen.

Take a deep breath through your nose until you feel your abdomen rising, hold your breath for a few seconds and then exhale completely until your abdomen falls. Repeat several times and you will begin to feel relaxed.

If you are not able to lie down, you can also breathe deeply while standing up or sitting down as it is also a discrete relaxation technique that can be practiced at anytime and in any place whenever and wherever stress strikes whether in the office or at home or in a traffic jam or in the middle of an argument.

***
Aromatherapy Tip #1 Inhale essential oils
Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils for their healing benefits. These essential oils have been used for centuries for we can see God telling Moses to prepare a holy anointing oil by mixing liquid myrrh, sweet-smelling cinnamon, sweet-smelling cane, cassia and olive oil in Exodus 30:22-25.

Lavender essential oil is the most effective essential oil for stress management. To inhale it for stress relief you can:
1. Scented Balls
Add 5 drops of lavender essential oil to your handkerchief or a cotton ball and sniff it throughout the day.

2. Scented Pillow Balls
Add 3 drops of lavender essential oil to a cotton ball and put it inside your pillow case to relax your way to dreamland.

3. Relaxing Linen Spray
Add 100 drops (5 ml or 1 teaspoon) of lavender essential oil to 1/5 cup (1.6 oz or 50ml) of distilled or plain water and use it as a linen spray for your bed sheets for relaxful sleep.

Note that, you should always conduct a skin patch test before using a new essential oil by applying the diluted essential oil to the inner aspect of your elbow and bandaging it for 24 hours to see if you will develop an allergic reaction.

Top 5 Characteristics Of The Perfect Home Spa

2011-02-08T18:11:00.000-08:00

The Home Spa is a vital component of any stress management program. This is because when life is stressing you and treating you badly, you need to counter the stress by treating yourself very well.

The Home Spa enables you to do this by providing a place where you can pamper yourself privately. In so doing, the Home Spa also helps you side step the medical and behavioral illnesses that arise from uninterrupted stress.

The top 5 characteristics of the perfect home spa that you should take into consideration when creating your own home spa are:

1. The Home Spa should be a private refuge.

Choose a room within your home or part of a room where you can retreat for some alone time behind closed doors. If you can’t claim the entire room to yourself, partition it for privacy. If you can’t claim the entire room to yourself all the time, designate the time when that certain “public” room within your home becomes your “private” refuge.

2. The Home Spa should be a place where you can relax physically.

Therefore, choose a room where you can rest and refresh your physical body. To modify an existing room for physical relaxation, you can:

• Add a chair with comfortable cushions in comforting cream

• Rid your spa space of environmental stress by fixing the clogged drain, moldy bathtub, jammed door or any other irritation as it may hamper relaxation.

3. The Home Spa should be a place where you can relax mentally.

Therefore, choose a room where your mind can rest. To modify an existing room for mental relaxation, you can:

• Get rid of clutter because it creates chaos making it hard for one to relax. Give away the things you don’t use to charities and friends or throw them away. Store the valuable items in cute containers.

• Decorate your spa space with curtains or wall hangings of lush green landscapes
since green is said to bring a sense of calm.

4. The Home Spa should be a place where you can recharge spiritually.

To modify an existing room so that if becomes a spiritual sanctuary, you can:

• Add a table for your Bible, prayer books and meditation CDs.

• Bring speakers into the room so that you can listen to soothing songs and meditation
CDs as you relax in there.

5. The Home Spa should fit into your budget.

To ensure your Home Spa fits into your budget you can:

• Choose products that are in your price range so that they do not stress you financially

• Save to buy pricier items

Finally, after creating your perfect Home Spa, schedule personal pampering time to enjoy it. Isolate at least one hour each week when you can isolate yourself and take care of your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well being. Choose the time of the day when you are least likely to be disturbed.
