Frankincense and the Brain

This week we aren’t going to have specific recipe days, because frankincense is such a powerhouse oil it serves some really important purposes for health benefits. Today I want to talk about how frankincense can help support the brain and brain function.

As we know the brain is very complex and is by far the most important and vital organ in the human body. The brain plays an important role in managing and directing all other organs, nervous systems, and body processes – it essentially controls everything your body does. Essential oils can powerfully impact and benefit the brain and how it functions day to day. When essential oils are used aromatically (diffusing or inhaling) the oils are directly accessing the brain through the olfactory bulb and therefore have the fastest physical and emotional responses from the brain.

Frankincense is one of the top oils for helping to support the brain and brain function due to the specific chemical compounds the oil is comprised of.

So today we are going to talk about a couple of remedies comprised of frankincense and a mix of other essential oils to help support brain function.

Brain Haze Buster (roller bottle recipe)

Ingredients:

  • 10 – 15 drops doTERRA frankincense essential oil
  • 10-15 drops doTERRA cedarwood essential oil
  • 10-15 drops doTERRA patchouli essential oil
  • 10-15 drops doTERRA sandalwood essential oil
  • 10-15 drops doTERRA vetiver essential oil
  • 1 roller bottle
  • doTERRA fractionated coconut oil

Instructions:

  1. Put essential oils into roller bottle, top off with coconut oil. Shake well to mix.
  2. Roll onto the back of neck to help enhance circulation to the brain and help to promote a more alert state.

Focus Blend

While studying of trying to focus try diffusing 1-2 drops doTERRA Melissa essential oil, frankincense essential oil, and patchouli essential oil.

You can also put this on the bottoms of your feet, base of the skull, and under the tounge twice daily to help support focus and cognitive function.

Frankincense has also been shown in many studies to help with Alzheimer’s, autism, brain injuries, Parkinson’s, seizures, and dementia. When used in the right protocols this oil can have powerful healing benefits to help provide a better quality of life and reduce the impact of some of these conditions.

Blends of the Week: Oregano

Since diffusing oregano oil is not usually recommended to be diffused due to its high phenol content, we are shaking things up a bit. Instead of diffuser blends, we have some rollerball blends this week!

Oregano when combined with other oils has very powerful healing properties for a wide arrangement of aliments.

Put the drops of oil into the roller bottle, fill the rest of the bottle with coconut oil. Shake well to mix. Roll onto heels and let absorb to help mend cracked heels.

Warts be Gone Roller Blend

  • 10 drops doTERRA oregano oil
  • 5 drops doTERRA lemongrass oil
  • 5 drops doTERRA frankincense oil
  • 1 glass roller bottle

Put the drops of oil into the roller bottle, fill the rest of the bottle with coconut oil. Shake well to mix. Roll directly onto the wart for at least 7 days until it is gone. Continue to apply mixture for 1 more day after the wart is gone.

Blend of the day: Tea Tree

Tea Tree oil is an oil that I honestly just started learning how to diffuse a couple months ago. I used to totally avoid putting it in the diffuser because I hated the smell. But when you combine it with the right mix of oils it adds a very fresh and purifying scent. Here are some of my favourite ways to use Tea Tree oil in the diffusers at home.

 

Let me know what you think of these blends or if you have some favourite recipes for diffusing Tea Tree.

See you tomorrow,

Blend of the Day featuring Peppermint

This week our blends are all featuring peppermint. I have several really great blends for you! Now as you may remember from previous blends of the day, there are lots of other ways to use peppermint, such as headache relief, and allergy relief! Peppermint can also be used in blends to smell fresh and clean, or uplifting and energizing.

There are so many great ways to use it in diffusing. What are some of your favourite blends?

Check out this weeks blends and let me know what you think!

Until tomorrow,
