Stress is such a general term that confuses most people and leaves them cold, resulting in a dismissive attitude toward the most effective ways to alleviate the causal factors of stress in their Lifestyles on a daily basis.

Stress is being blamed for so many symptoms in the world of Dr. Oz that it becomes a challenge to address all the signs of imbalance in the body that are being attributed to general stress, instead of being more specific and observant of each organ and system that is screaming that it is out of balance.

You simply cannot point your finger at stress and conclude that it is the culprit for every symptom that Dr. Oz identified today on his TV show. However, that does not mean that stress does not play a key role in contributing to these imbalances and the signs the body gives to tell you that it needs your attention for change. At the heart of feeling stress, the individual is being given a message in the best way the body knows to signal that a condition exists that needs to be changed. The body’s language of pain, discomfort, and other symptoms are innately designed to be the indicators that the body uses to alert you to any imbalance…and the greater the imbalance, the stronger the symptoms of the language yelling at you for help and attention.

This is one of the primary reasons why you don’t want to rely upon pain killers or other band-aid solutions to pain or discomfort. If you try to disguise it, hide it, and stop the pain with medication; then you will fail to address the true causes for the pain. This leads to an exacerbation of the imbalance, because you have decided to not pay attention to the pain…an inconvenient truth.

The Essential Oil of Lavender is well-known for alleviating pain and reducing stress. One of the first reported uses of Lavender for pain was from a severe burn and the Lavender took the sharp pain away, leading to further research and exploration about the value of Lavender for burns and skin conditions. The pain of toothache and headache have often responded to Lavender being applied to the temples, the jaw, and the wrists. Even general pain in the human body has been diminished in intensity with the use of high quality Lavender Essential Oil.

Now, Dr. Oz recommended that his audience blend ten drops of Lavender Essential Oil with water. I do not agree with that approach. While there are times that a spritzer of floral water is a good idea, when intense pain or discomfort is present it is more important to get the full force and power of Lavender and other Essential Oils that have not been diluted or mixed with water. You really do want to apply the Lavender directly to the skin for maximum benefit.

The mechanism of action of Essential Oils are most potent when the EO is applied directly to the human body. The Oil is rapidly absorbed and utilized by the body. It changes when mixed with water. It is preferable that you use the Essential Oil as an oil for the best results. Dr. Oz and his staff need to learn more about the power of diffusing Essential Oils and genuine aromatherapy.

I have known many of my holistic colleagues who have brought aromatherapy and the application of Essential Oils to the public for the past twenty years. The practice of aromatherapy has become much more widely known and popular as MLM companies and companies like AuraCacia have entered our marketplace to make EOs more available to the public. It’s a different story in France and other European countries where aromatherapy is commonly known and appreciated for the power of healing and restoring balance in both humans and animals.

Dogs, cats, horses, and any animals respond beautifully to Essential Oils. Infants and young children also do very well with the application of high quality Essential Oils. My own two children enjoyed these direct benefits over the years. Aromatherapy is one of the most useful and powerful natural therapeutic modalities available to you for relief from stress, imbalance, and in the maintenance of well-being of Body, Mind, and Spirit. You will understand this point-of-view yourself when you experience it directly.

Lavender Essential Oil can be applied directly to one’s wrists, forehead, the soles of your feet, and the actual area of discomfort. If you have a burn, reach for your Lavender EO and apply it immediately. You can watch the redness diminish, the pain cessation is rapid, and the tissue is spared the typical damage from a serious burn. The healing time is shortened and the regenerative power is obvious. You have to experience it to truly value it!

You can diffuse Lavender in your home or office to reduce the levels of stress, worry, frustration, irritability, anger, aggravation, and other labels of emotional distress or imbalance. Children will respond during the day whether at school or at home and their sleep patterns will be more normalized with the diffusion of Lavender, Peppermint, and blends of Essential Oils that are calming. Chamomile is another Essential Oil that has a calming and soothing effect for children and adults. The Blends are excellent for the purpose of reducing stress and calming the mind.

A couple of drops on a child’s pillow at night will assist the child in peacefully going to sleep and sleeping through the night. If your children have nightmares; then Essential Oils will be helpful as will one of the Pendents that stabilize the bio-energetic field in a room and around the human body. Electro-magnetic Pollution is a such a major contributing factor to the stress that children experience that you might consider all the methods that we discuss on this blog to quiet the busy mind, calm the spirit, and bring balance at an energetic as well as a physiological level. Even the stress of lousy music that disrupts the heart, the brain, and the circadian cycles of the human body can be changed with the use of Essential Oils and Bio-Energetic tools like the Pendants and the CieAura Holographic Chips. These are relatively inexpensive and effective solutions that nip stress in the bud. Use them wisely!
