Two significant aspects spring to mind for me are – Relationships and Cooking! Of course I love giving and receiving gifts and I shall address that in the close of this article.
As an opener, do you not agree that everything in society is built on and around Relationships? If you feel this to be so, I also expect you’d want to have the best relationships possible with your significant other, as well as extending that to include all of your relationships (parents, siblings, children, friends, business associates, work colleagues). Am I correct?
We are all aware that during the holidays, our relationships come under huge pressure and scrutiny, the strain of which can either make or break said relationship. Statistically, this time of year either drives us apart or brings us closer. Endings and Beginnings, exactly as one season ends, another begins.
The Holidays usually raise the best or worst in us. Increase or decrease the love or stress. Enhance our natural gifts or expose aspects of self we’d rather not be seen … worse, address! Either way, the Holiday season is unique in affording us no hiding place.
I have acute awareness/intuition of any situation the moment I walk into a room; the truth of lives fully on display, invariably the one people come to talk to and ask advice about their relationships. I may know them well, equally have never met them before … this is my gift in life! Men and Women flock to tell me their problems, desires, dreams, wishes, hopes, fears and have no qualms about volunteering intimate information about their sex lives (or lack of!) This has been my life since High School – Mentor/Adviser/Guide.
It wasn’t until I had reached a certain level of Consciousness in my own relationships that I felt I had so much more to offer my clients. My schedule really does increase to accommodate the amount of people booking appointments in the run-up to this holiday season. Those wanting to improve the relationships they have or to improve themselves in order to attract the right partner and those who find themselves in relationships that no longer serve or fit them due to one having grown the other remained the same. And then of course, there are those whose relationships are in serious trouble.
There are no rules or secrets to the relationship you desire. We are all unique and raise different things in different people. However, what I know to be true from personal and professional experience, is that we must go inward first to clear old patterns and non-serving belief systems to discover who we are and what our desires are before attracting someone who is aligned with us, intellectually, emotionally, spiritually and sexually. If we are in relationships that have grown out of sync, going inward to our core reveals our next steps, hopefully re-energising our current relationship, although sometimes, we have to admit that our miss-match relationship is beyond repair.
Have you ever wondered why Sex and Finance are the two main causes of disagreement and frustration in relationships? We cover both in our sessions!
I love nothing more than seeing my clients grow to become alive, re-vitalised, re-aligned, re-fuelled whatever their relationship status; a fantastic way to enter the holiday season. Conscious Relating gifts us the PAUSE, to stop, breathe and quietly drop from our head to heart before engaging our mouth! One reason I introduce Essential Oils into my sessions, is because we have Oils for everything including mood-enhancers to bring our mind, body, spirit into balance, gaining insight and clarity. Diffusing Oils is an easy method to disperse the calming aroma into the room, although some clients do request using Oils topically, often on their forehead and temples.
If you want to embark on an amazing relationship with another, you owe it to yourself to firstly develop the most incredibly fulfilling relationship with self – in and out of the bedroom! THE ONE is YOU!
Having introduced the concept of Essential Oils (again in and out of the bedroom … after all, they were good enough for Cleopatra!) One of the joys of the Holiday Season is food and the constant smell of cooking and baking. I personally am not at all traditional and usually cook whatever dish from around the world I choose. What I love to do is add Essential Oils to these dishes, hot or cold, savoury or sweet, flavouring water and of course, adding that intoxicating aroma and taste to Mulled Wine. It is a gift to my visitors to have Essential Oils diffusing in all rooms too.
The Ancient History of Essential Oils dates back to almost the beginning of time, however, it does appear that the Egyptians were first to make extensive use of herbs with distillation methods. Oils would be used for ailments, for anointing and Aromatherapy, in cooking and bathing and of course as Fragrances. The beneficial properties of Essential Oils are endless.
Modern Aromatherapy was formally introduced in 1930’s, regaining steady popularity since then. Personally, my introduction to Essential Oils was for a sports injury in 2015 … so impressed with the healing results, I embarked on an adventure of discovery to use oils throughout my home, enhancing all of my natural products. Every room in my home you will find Essential Oils for every purpose you can imagine.
It is in the Kitchen that I love to use Essential Oils most as already mentioned, hence I deliver Classes teaching others how to use Essential Oils in Cooking. The run-up to the Holidays again sees a spike in interest and attendees. That said, I generally see a rise in clients for AromaTouch Massage as well at this time and post-holidays. This Massage is designed to help stimulate and balance the sympathetic and para-sympathetic nervous systems of the body, improving well-being by reducing physical and emotional stressors and by supporting healthy autonomic function. Ahhh. Breathe and Relax!
I said I’d mention gifts before closing, and I’ve enlightened you on three types …. Gifting yourself Sessions to create the Relationship you desire that lasts a life-time rather than a few months, fulfilling your every wish making your dreams a reality. Gifting yourself and others divinely beautiful Pure Essential Oils to be used throughout your life, whether in Cooking, for minor ailments, cleaning, travelling, well-being, massage, mood enhancers, beauty and much more. And finally gifting yourself or loved ones the beautiful relaxing AromaTouch Massage, a wonderful way to experience Essential Oils. Natures Gifts that support all of your Life and Relationships 😉
