Essential Oils and Anger

 Anger affects each of us in different ways. Some people find that anger is practically non-existent in their lives while others will find that if they do not actively work to deal with it it will take over their lives. Anger is a natural emotion, something we have all experienced at some time in our lives. Just because it is a natural thing, does not mean that we should simply say there is nothing we can do about it. Countless people make changes in their lives every day that affect a natural function. We are not slaves to our appetites, our emotions, or our bodies. We all can make choices. I realize that some people have hormonal disorders that make it impossible to make a choice at times, but we can address the challenge, address the disorder in the body, and choose to make changes that will, ultimately, address the anger management issue. It will take patience, but there is always hope.

Essential oils can help us modify emotions both in an immediate fashion and over the long run. Essential oils are really not an oil. They are essential, essential to the plant because they are the immune system or defense system of that plant. They are not really oils though, they are lipoic acids. Your body is made of lipids; they are one of the building blocks of the body. Because of this, essential oils will be recognized as part of your body and taken in to create a change.

Four ways essential oils work scientifically in your body to create a change:

1. Topical application.

2. Frequency enhancement.

3. Limbic System-emotional response, glandular reaction.

4. External/Internal ingestion. Stick your tongue out (it is now external), and put a drop of essential oil on your tongue = external ingestion. We are not doctors, we cannot tell you to take something internally. BEFORE taking any essential oil internally make sure that it is EOBBD tested and has the FDA GRAS (generally regarded as safe) rating.

Today we will be discussing how essential oils affect the limbic system, the system that triggers an emotional response and glandular reaction. The limbic system is the center of our emotions. By smelling various essential oils we can elevate the body's heart rate, we can lower the heart rate, can raise blood pressure, can lower blood pressure, etc. When you smell the essential oil it goes to the olfactory center of your nose where you have 40 million olfactory neurons.
