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
  • Drainage is vital and vagus congestion is often in the lymph system

Best Moments

‘The opposite of I don’t feel safe, is I have choices and when you are in parasympathetic you have a lot of choices’

‘The effect is immediate after the application of an essential oil’

‘My favourite is blue tansy and for anyone with seasonal allergies it’s great, you can just smell it and feel better’
