Bergamot
Bergamot Essential Oils:
 
Nickname: The Harmonizer
Description: Bergamot has a woodsy, sweet, citrus aroma that is so wonderful diffused for helping to lift our moods, decrease stress, and support the respiratory system. It is used in Earl Gray tea to give it that distinctive "ahhhh" factor and has been studied for it's properties to lower cortisol (stress hormone) and to lower the body's sympathetic nervous response (fight/flight/freeze). It is such a wonderfully calming oil!.

When it comes to skincare, bergamot helps combat oil production, acne & psoriasis. Bergamot is also a huge component for many perfumes due to its ability to balance the mix of aromas and harmonize all of the essences. Some of our favorite pairings are:

Bergamot + White Angelica
Bergamot + Sacred Frankincense
Bergamot + Stress Away
Bergamot + Vetiver
Home: Morocco, Italy

Ways to use:  
  1. Diffuse with lavender, frankincense and myrrh for an incredibly grounding aroma that helps to release our worries, especially when paired with prayer or meditation.
  2. Add to your moisturizer or glow serum (2oz dropper bottle, 10 drops frankincense, 10 drops sandalwood, 10 drops bergamot, carrier oil)
  3. Make a roller from the ideas above and apply it frequently throughout the day. Apply over the heart, wrists, neck, chest as desired.
Bergamot is also found in other Young Living blends and products: Dream Catcher, Gentle Baby, Gratitude, Harmony, Joy, Progessence Plus, Sensation Bath & Shower Gel and Hand & Body Lotion, Relaxation Massage oil and Rose ointment.Want to learn more about Essential Oils?  Here's a couple easy ways to get started.

How I Got Here

 
HOMETOWN:  Kent, WA and Gold Canyon, AZ

After 30+ years in healthcare, I felt like a hypocriteI knew better. I was overweight. I was not active, at all. I was having more and more pain and I was having fairly extreme mood swings (Getting older is great, right?). I just wasn’t doing the things I had enjoyed in the past. And getting older really frightened me. 

 

About that time, I was introduced to a new way of thinking. In my heart I knew that we have a lot of influence in our health and how we feel. I just wasn’t acting on it. I began to look at the lifestyle I was living. I became more aware of the natural alternatives including what I ate, products I used, and what I was “treating” myself with. We started switching out the old for the  new and more natural.

 

It’s been a process but it has been a game changer for us. I feel back in control of my health, physically and mentally. I realize I have the option of turning to a natural choice first, whether it is for cleaning, laundry, personal care, health support, or even skin care.  The feeling of "I've got this" when I look at my stash of natural products.  My husband and I have been able to eliminate almost all of the toxic chemicals in our home.  I still fully believe there is a place for conventional medicine and of course we still need many of the products on the market.  But it just makes sense to me to try something more natural first. It’s hard to quantify feeling better all the way around.  But it’s true….we do.

 

So are you ready to take ownership of your health? I can promise you it is empowering and can be a game changer for you as well.  I’m convinced that it’s never too late.  Let’s do this. And let’s do it together!
