December 30th, 2011 by Karen No comments »Paul Scheele of www.LearningStrategies.com reported on a brainwave study using Sacred Frankincense and Memory Enhancement. Here are the results of the Sacred Frankincense Study.
A short term study of the effects of Sacred Frankincense before, during and after 30 days of use involving 12 subjects:
• Learning blockages improved in 67%
• Reading difficulties improved in 63%
• Memory problems improved in 80%
• Motivation issues improved in 33%
When asked if the use of Sacred Frankincense lead to significant changes in their lives, 80% said “yes”.
Subjects reported the following results:
• Before the use of frankincense, the brain felt full. After the first use the brain felt alive. At end of study they said they felt that it was easier to remember things.
Sacred Frankincense can heal trauma, induce inner calm, reduce inner noise, ensure brain’s gifts and talents are more available.
2% of brain activity is neuron firing; 98% is neuro-peptide release.
What is an Essential Water?
December 3rd, 2011 by Karen No comments »Steam is used in the distillation of an essential oil. In the process, condensing separates the oil and leaves water that is sometimes referred to as floral water, essential water, hydrolet or hydrosol.
Hydrosols have healing properties. They can be used in shampoos, bath water, skin creams, skin and facial sprays etc.
Hydrosols contain some essential oil, but only in very small amounts. they generally have a gentler, softer taste, and aroma.
Hydrosols are fun to experiment with, and relatively inexpensive. Fill a small spritzer bottle and take it with you wherever you. Experiment with Peppermint for weight loss, and use it cold from the fridge in hot weather to refresh and cool your body.
Clary Sage is great for women’s issues, and is gentle and soothing on the skin. Add a few drops of Lavender and a drop of Chamomile.
Happy spritzing!
