Essential Oils For Maturing Years

Last Updated on September 29, 2021 by Smart Life Picks

Essential oils are so potent during your maturing years. Most older people say they feel themselves to be the same person they were in their youth. Experience has taught them to think differently about a few things, but essentially, they’re the same person as they were then.

Reconciling these inner feelings with the mature body can be difficult, especially in a society that venerates accumulation in everything but years. But getting to know the essential oils can help us mature gracefully by bringing the body more into line with the young person we feel inside.

Remember, you’re never too old for an activity unless you’re physically incapable of doing it. And there’s no law that says you can’t go dancing every night.

Whatever you do, make this time of your life one of enjoyment. Once you are retired there is more time to enjoy the simple pleasures of life, like music, picnicking in the park, traveling, and volunteering, not to mention starting a new blog or business! Of course, we all need a little help sometimes, so if you wake up feeling listless and tired, here is the regime for you: when you get up, take a bath or shower using the essential oils below. If you opt for the bath,

dilute the essential oils in 1 teaspoon (5 mL) of carrier oil before adding to the bath, lie back, and breathe deeply, inhaling the delicate, revitalizing aroma molecules.

Wake-Up Essential Oils For The Maturing Years

Bergamot FCF (Citrus bergamia)

Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis)

Niaouli (Melaleuca quinquenervia)

Wake-Up Blend of Essential Oils

Bergamot FCF 2 drops

Rosemary 1 drop

Grapefruit 1 drop

Whether using oils singly or in a blend, use 3–4 drops in the bath or 1 or 2 drops in the shower. 

If you find that as far as exercise is concerned, the mind may be willing but the body is not, things will seem much easier after the wake-up bath or shower. 

This doesn’t extend to an intense, extreme cardiac workout — it’s more like a cat stretching in the morning. Just stretch each muscle as best you can, paying attention to each part of the body in turn..

You may also find that gently brushing the skin with a stiff body brush always in the direction of the heart will help stimulate that wake-up feeling.

By this time you’ll be ready for a balanced, nutritional breakfast. So many health problems have been linked to poor diet that the maturing years are the time to stop gambling with health and ensure that the diet is full of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole foods, nuts, seeds, and similar good things.

These life-changing essential oils must be popularised and the knowledge about them disseminated more so more people are aware of this blessing from nature .
