Petitgrain is for Optimism, it helps promote awareness and clears perceptions. Petitgrain has often been found to be helpful when added to synergies designed to help overcome obsessions and addictions as it brings in positive energy and promotes optimism.  It can also promote a healthy self-esteem and trust in one’s self and others. 

Lime is for Refreshing the Mind, it is uplifting, stimulating, cheering, refreshing and restorative. On an energetic level it can help cleanse traumatic emotions held in the cellular memory of the physical body.

Lavender is for nurturing, it soothes grief and promotes peace! In addition to soothing grief and promoting peace, Lavender balances all the energy centers and subtle bodies.  It is useful in all energy healing techniques to help relax and balance, while at the same time it can clear and cleanse a room and bring in positive energy.  It promotes compassion, as well as calming, comforting and stabilizing emotions of the heart.

The card that popped out for my Sunday Essential Oil Reflection is Geranium.  Geranium is for rebalancing.  It is also recommended for easing heartache and feelings of abandonment! 

Vetiver for centering, it helps ground one to the earth! With its smoky, earthy aroma has antiseptic, antispasmodic, aphrodisiac, emmenagogue, immune stimulant, rubefacient and sedative properties.

Energetically, Patchouli is for grounding and it strengthens the will to live.  It taps into the energies of Mother Earth to help bring us to a calm and centered place.  This can in turn help to relax and calm an overactive intellect. 

Coriander with its sweet, spicy light aroma has analgesic, aperitif, aphrodisiac, anti-rheumatic, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, anti-toxic, fungicidal, sedative and digestive stimulant properties.  It is helpful for soothing migraine, neuralgia and nervous exhaustion and can also be helpful for bad memory and dizziness, as well as for shock, sadness and fear.

Bergamot's uplifting, calming and anti-depressant properties are great for dispelling negativity. A 'happy' oil that can lift most people's mood. I often turn to this sweet florally citrus when I am blending for anxiety, depression and any stress-related disorders. Great in diffusers, misters, inhalers. NOTE: Only use Bergamot FCF grade should be used topically on the skin as the regular Bergamot is very phototoxic when applied to skin.
