When you are sad
When you’re feeling disinterested, discouraged, or just plain downcast, holistic healer Hope Gillerman recommends making a diffuser cocktail of three focusing oils: rosemary, eucalyptus, and cedarwood. “Slowly inhale the vapor of your diffuser to bring more oxygen into your brain and wake up to new possibilities! Or try a bright and shiny peppermint cocktail like my H. Gillerman Organics Clear Mind Tension Remedy ($ 50) to get you moving. “
Lindsey Carter, founder of Blooming Light and master aromatherapist, likes to combine geranium and sweet orange essential oils to promote feelings of joy and happiness. “The floral aroma of the geranium is rich in monoterpenols, which give a feeling of security and open the heart,” she says. “In combination with the emotionally uplifting and tension-soothing essential oil from sweet orange, you can’t help but feel an abundance of happiness.”
