Aromatherapy Share: The Plants That Help Us Let Go of the Past, Stay Present, and Stop Worrying About the Future...

Presence is the power that we can offer ourselves and our surroundings, to bless this life and all that is experienced within it. By being present, the past and the future give us their blessings to attract health, happiness, and all-around goodness. The greatest gift we can offer ourselves and our Loved ones is the gift of presence. These essences help us to let go of the past, stop worrying about the future, and live joyfully in the present.

Rose Geranium is the greatest supporter in transmuting the past in order to live in the present. She is a beautiful, aromatic evergreen shrub that is bred for her hypnotic scent and healing properties. For the skin, she is a hero that helps acne prone teens and adults throughout their years. Rose Geranium is a lymphatic supporter, kidney tonic, immune booster, liver tonic, pancreas stimulator, rheumatism healer, and blood sugar balancing flower essence. She addresses major life changes by transmuting the past, and moving forward with more confidence and courage than ever.

Cedarwood Atlas gently reminds us to stay in the moment and focus on the blessings we have in our lives. She is a large, coniferous evergreen tree that is said to attract the Holy Spirit. Her name derives from an Arabic word meaning "power", and has been studied to be a powerful skin, immune system, kidney, and lung healer. In the Himalayas, Buddhist monks have worked with her to help calm and still their minds in meditation and strength in faith. Cedarwood Atlas helps us release toxic feelings, look at life from a positive lens, and stay in the moment of gratitude for the blessings and gifts of the Great Spirit.

Eucalyptus Mint helps us let go of our worries about the future so we can be more present. She is a broad-leaved Peppermint tree that grows in open forests and woodlands with dry, shallow and stony soil. Aboriginal Australians have worked with her to cleanse lower energies, attachments, and "bad" spirits for centuries. Eucalyptus Mint has been used during various life changes, initiations, and transitions that life offers. She is anti-fungal, anti-infection, and good for pain, arthritis, neuralgia, and nervous exhaustion, as well as lung issues, headaches, reproductive imbalances, and bladder and intestinal issues. Energetically, this powerful tree helps us to simply go with the flow and surrender to our highest destiny. When we see the best in life, we hold the space to be the best in life. This tree essence supports our growth and harmony, and the sacred Root Chakra of security, grounding, and Earthly needs.
