Green Valley Aromatherapy"s Newsletter from July 2003 Presidents LetterDear Aroma Friends, I arrived home to Canada leaving behind an England with hot and sunny weather. It is unusual to have 14 continuous days of hot sunshine and the people were not prepared. Fortunately, I had my travel first aid kit of essential oils and used them for a multitude of conditions like sunburn, heat rash, sinus problems, anxiety and little things that bite. Of course there comes the usual "catch up" time when I”m away, because nothing stands still at Green Valley. Our staff is talking of upcoming summer activities: getting fit and vacation plans. I am even considering joining a fitness club in order to help get the creative juices and energy flowing. Some of the team is planning on taking Belly Dancing lessons in September. While I think it would be interesting, I”m not planning to join in at this point. I am pleased to announce that we have three new team members! Rebekah has joined us as the new receptionist, so now you will be welcomed by a different voice on the phone. Alice has moved on to be part of our Customer/Sales Representative Team. Chika comes to us from Japan for 12 months as part of an internship program. She is learning English as well as the day-to-day workings here at Green Valley. We”ve also hired a new executive assistant, Camille, to help keep me and my thoughts organized in my day to day activities here at Green Valley. Our One Face line was successfully launched on June 10th to rave reviews and will be included as part of our new catalogue, due out in August. Green Valley Essentials (our new book) is now available at our website! All in all, June was a pretty good month and I”m sure July will be even better! Enjoy your summer vacation! Barb Greenwood Essential Oils For WomenEssential oils do not understand genetic differences. However, certain essential oil carry with them properties more relevant to feminine issues. Being a woman means knowing your body is subject to hormonal fluctuations (ok, sometimes it feels like we”re being held hostage!) and the host of health issues surrounding these. For those who live with us, at times it can feel as though a stranger has moved in to replace the woman you know! While diet and lifestyle can play a large part in helping to control these fluctuations, essential oils can also be used regularly to improve the overall quality of life on a month to month basis. This month”s newsletter will explore some of these oils and ways to utilize them in your daily life. Nurture Your Entire BeingIf you are suffering from low self esteem, or just having one of those days, one of the best things you can do is learn how to love and nurture the most important person in your life. YOU! Set aside some time for you and create a luxurious atmosphere in your bathroom. Prepare a seductive, sinfully aromatic oil blend (in a carrier oil) that makes you feel glorious and alive (see our recipe section for some great ideas!). Add it to your bath and massage it gently onto your body once you leave the tub. Your skin will glow and you will be energetically rejuvenated. A sea salt scrub before entering the water will also add to your invigorating, skin renewing experience. Learn to release negative thoughts and emotions in constructive ways - scream into a pillow, work out on a punching bag, talk to someone. If your living quarters are uncomfortable and boring, liven up the atmosphere with flowers, aromatic candles in bright colors, and diffuse some sunny, happy essential oils. Citrus oils tend to improve the atmosphere of a room, as do Geranium essential oil, Basil essential oiland Rosemary essential oil. Open the curtains, fling open your doors and windows and allow fresh air to circulate through, bringing with it vibrant new energy. Learn to laugh at yourself and the world. Psychologists have discovered that those people who are “ultra conforming” and rigid commonly suffer from chronic anxiety or depression. Conversely, non-conformists tend to live longer, and seldom get seriously depressed. The key is to be found in the healing power of laughter. Don”t be afraid to get silly, learn to laugh at yourself and society, carry your “happy” essential oils wherever you go and remember to appreciate yourself! Oil Profile: Rose Otto (Rose Damascena)

Did You Know?Essential oils are also used on a spiritual/energy vibrational level? It is believed that there is a flow of energy, back and forth, between people and essential oils. Mental energy, both positive and negative, are transferred to essential oils where they are absorbed and held onto, in a similar way to crystals. There is a movement by some individuals, referring to essential oils as “liquid crystals”. The electrical frequency of essential oils can be measured in megahertz, although the reading can change drastically depending on who has handled the oil. Rose Otto has been measured to have the highest frequency of all essential oils. Some essential oils that may help raise your vibrational energy levels are Lemon essential oil, Pine essential oil, Fir, Black Pepper essential oil, Eucalyptus essential oil, Basil essential oil, Peppermint essential oiland Coriander. These oils can be used in a diffuser or made into a spray for misting around the head and shoulders. For more information on the spiritual/vibrational aspects of essential oils, please refer to The Fragrant Heavens by Valerie Ann Worwood. The Reading RoomThe Encyclopedia of Aromatherapy
