Every time something dramatic happens in my life, I become engrossed in new hobbies/self-improvement kicks. Here's a combination of the latest ones: Essential Oils and Yoga Practice.
Incorporating Essential Oils into Yoga
- Mix 5 drops of your favorite essential oil with water in a small spray bottle and spritz the room. Clean the air, enhance the mood or spritz over yogis as part of final savasana relaxation.
- Place 1 drop frankincense oil on third eye at the beginning of class to bring focus, clarity, and spiritual connection to practice. Essential oils pair with chakra alignment.
- Diffuse wild orange & peppermint oil to offer an uplifting and relaxing atmosphere. Peppermint is a wonderful oil to help open the airways, energize practice, and lower body temperature.
- Use a combination of Melaleuca tea tree oil and Lemon in a spray bottle with water to clean and disinfect yoga mats naturally.
- Offer essential oil savasana adjustment with Lavender or balance oils to temples, brow line, behind the neck and/or feet. Lavender and balance are grounding oils that help to ease and calm the mind.
- Place 1-2 drops of Lemon oil in stainless steal or glass water bottle to support detoxification and cleansing the body from the inside out.
- Peppermint will increase athletic performance (increase oxygen and breathing, decrease lactate) when added to water
