Key Takeaways
- Plants are the basis for all modern medicine, humans and plants are bio familiar and there are many cures in nature
- You can smell, ingest, or use topical application for essential oils
- Using reflexology points can have a systemic effect opening energy channels and balancing the body
- Working with a trained professional can help identify the underlying issues and trauma
- Essential oils are complementary to other exploratory therapies
- Your autonomic immune system has two gears – the parasympathetic and the sympathetic and resources are allocated according to the gear you are in
- The vagus nerve is the information superhighway between your brain and body and when you shift into parasympathetic it becomes all about solutions and possibilities
- There is research that shows both cinnamon and peppermint can satiate appetite between meals
- Rosemary and peppermint can help with concentration and activate the prefrontal cortex
- There are 3 things to concentrate on – sleep, being able to gear shift out of sympathetic and parasympathetic and drainage
