Product Descriptions
Deliverance
Ingredients: clove, eucalyptus, cinnamon, lemon, rosemary, thyme, oregano, wild oregano
Affinity for: immune system, lymphatic system, skin
Resonance: physical, spiritual
Application: LeDeliverance can be used in so many ways, I am sure that I will not manage to list them all here. Some common methods of use are soak the family toothbrushes in LeDeliverance
mixed with water, place a drop on your toothbrush at least one time per day, and place on a cotton ball or in an inhaler and carry with you, inhaling frequently, during the cold and flu season. A particularly effective way to fight a very virulent illness is to apply LeDeliverance alternately with LeLife Force. In the evening put one of these essential oils on the K1’s (acupressure points on the feet) and the other on the thymus. First thing in the morning, put the oils on again, then put them in opposite positions. If LeDeliverance was on the thymus area the night before, it should go on the feet in the morning. This method is very effective against really nasty stuff.
Aromatic Considerations: An excellent use for this blend is to diffuse it every day during the cold and flu season to eliminate air-borne bacteria and viruses.
Physical Aspects: LeDeliverance is one of the most potent antiviral, antibacterial, anti-fungal combinations available. Its many uses include respiratory infections, sore throats, strep throats, dental diseases and infections, cold sores, canker sores, cuts, any type of infections, athlete’s foot fungus, toe nail fungus, and infection from slivers. Apply faithfully undiluted to get rid of a wart (this takes a little time so be patient). Frequent and consistent use also strengthens the immune system. LeDeliverance is an expectorant and helps the lymph system to drain. This is a very effective oil. Everyone should have it on hand.
General Information: LeDeliverance can be used, diluted, or diffused, in the home as a cleaner and air purifier to fight viruses, and air borne bacteria.
Cautions: Care should also be taken to dilute well, especially if frequent use is anticipated. The clove, cinnamon, thyme and oregano in this blend make it a possible skin irritant.
Endo Relief
Ingredients: cumin, cypress, coriander, dill, geranium, myrtle, nutmeg, oregano, petitgrain, sage
Affinity for: endocrine system, lymph system, emotional boundaries, pineal gland, pituitary gland
Resonance: physical, emotional, spiritual
Application: LeEndo Relief should be applied to the lymph glands of the neck, chest, and armpits whenever a cold, sore throat, or flu is suspected. Using LeEndo Relief early, before the illness is fully developed will lessen its severity.
Aromatic Considerations: This blend is best applied to the body.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: LeEndo Relief aids our emotional health because it strengthens and balances the wide range of organs and glands that make up the endocrine system. As our bodies and minds begin to function better, we feel more secure in ourselves. We are able to establish (or re-establish) boundaries between ourselves and others. This does not mean that we become prickly or rude; it enables us to be tactful and firm while still being kind and concerned.
Physical Aspects: With improved endocrine function comes improved vitality and metabolism. Our weight naturally balances and we have enough energy to last through the day (and into the night, if we need to). As an endocrine system balancer, LeEndo Relief can have a beneficial effect on any ailment that is related to endocrine organs such as the thyroid, pancreas, pineal and pituitary glands, parathyroid, thymus and adrenal glands. This makes LeEndo Relief useful for such things as diabetes, hypoglycemia, bladder and kidney infections, candida, and so much more. Support of the thyroid and parathyroids aid the proper absorption of calcium. Calcium absorption affects such things as the prevention of gallstones, kidney stones, arthritis, and osteoporosis. LeEndo
Relief regulates hot flashes and moderates the other symptoms of menopause because the hormones balance as the endocrine system function improves.
Life Force
Ingredients: blue tansy, caraway, clove bud, dill, frankincense, galbanum, geranium, hyssop, lemon, oregano, ravensara, rosemary, thyme
Affinity for: nervous system, immune system
Resonance: physical, emotional
Application: One of the best places to apply this blend is along the spine. Other good places are all over the feet and on the thymus area of the chest.
Aromatic Consideration: LeLife Force should be diffused to strengthen the immune system and increase energy levels. It will also disinfect and purify the air, eliminating germs and bacteria..
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: LeLife Force immediately raises the over-all frequency of the body, improving outlook and response to stress and trauma.
Physical Aspects: LeLife Force should be used following any illness or traumatic experience that has left one feeling weak, shaky, or on edge. This blend can make a big difference in the recovery period of accidents and illnesses. LeLife Force builds, strengthens, and protects the body because it is an immune and adrenal gland stimulant and toner. Use it with LeEndo Relief during the cold
and flu season. You may avoid getting sick altogether, and, if you do catch something, the illness will have a shorter duration and recovery period.
For fever, dilute and apply along the spine. For bronchitis, use LeLife Force with LeAspire or LeBreezey applied to the chest. For an earache, put 1 drop of LeLife Force in carrier oil and put into the ear. In addition I like to put 2 or 3 drops of BBL tincture in the ear. BBL will numb the pain and cause any inflammation to dissipate through a multitude of small holes which heal quickly (instead of in one large rupture which is the way ears usually deal with inflammation).
Soaking your feet in very hot water to which 2 or 3 drops of LeLife Force has been added, can assist the body to detoxify, especially from environmental poisons and medications. The combination of immune stimulant properties and detoxifying capabilities make LeLife Force effective against allergies and other mild auto-immune dysfunctions.
Birch (Betula lenta)
Ingredient In: LeBreezey, LeDeeper, LeEZ Traveler, LeMagi, LePaine
Therapeutic Properties: anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antiseptic, antispasmodic, disinfectant
Affinity For: muscles and joints, nerves, urinary system, lung meridian, lymphatic system
Resonance: physical, emotional
Plant Family: Betulaceae
Part of Plant Used: leaves
Application: Birch should be applied, well diluted, to areas of pain or inflammation.
Aromatic Considerations: Birch has a pleasant aroma. It awakens the senses, increasing awareness and alertness.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: Sometimes we get into a frame of mind where we are very much afraid of the truth. We are sure that we will not be able to handle the truth if it is forced upon us. We spend a lot of mental and emotional energy hiding from the truth. Birch essential oil is very eye opening. It shatters our illusions and brings us up against reality. This sounds harsh, but honesty in looking at oneself is a compelling and liberating force. The most important truth we can learn in this life is the truth about our own motivations and triggers. This truth will truly set us free and birch essential oil can help us grasp it and keep hold of it.
Physical Aspects: Birch essential oil has analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It is useful for arthritis, muscle and bone pain, tendonitis, osteoporosis, and any inflammatory condition. Birch is also a treatment for bladder infections, recurring cystitis, gout, edema, and kidney stones. Birch helps with eczema and other skin disorders. One of its outstanding uses is reducing fevers.
General Information: One of the key compounds in birch (and wintergreen) essential oil is methyl salicylate. In birch oil, this compound makes up 85-90% of the oil. Methyl salicylate is an aspirin-like compound which has much the same effect on muscles and nerves as cortisone, but as a constituent of an essential oil it does not have the side-effects of cortisone. Methyl salicylate is easily and cheaply produced in laboratories, but the man-made substitute has very toxic side effects. This is not true of birch essential oil—in spite of what you may have heard or read. The 10-15% of other compounds that occur naturally in birch oil balances the methyl salicylate and keep it from being toxic. This ‘balancing act’ of naturally occurring compounds is common in the natural world. (The lack of balancing components is why drugs have side effects and herbs do not!!)
Research done by aromatherapists of the British school of thought was conducted using perfume grade essential oils (in other words, synthetic laboratory produced oils diluted in carrier oil). This research has been given extensive coverage in print. Of course, these synthetic oils proved toxic—even when well-diluted. The research has no relevance to the safety or efficacy of pure therapeutic grade essential oils. Therapeutic grade birch essential oil is safe to use; synthetic reproductions are not! Essential oils are concentrated. In most applications they should be diluted. This is true of birch essential oil.
I visited a web site where it was explained that birch oil aggravated a toxic condition established by medications which contained large amounts of methyl salicylate. This aggravation was cited as a reason to not use birch essential oil at all. The fact that the reaction was set up by the synthetic compound was totally ignored and brushed aside as irrelevant. It was assumed that the toxic reaction would have been the same with pure birch oil. Although the natural and the man-made compounds have the same name, they are not the same! A study of simple chemistry shows this clearly. (See Dr. David Stewart’s book The Chemistry of Essential Oils Made Simple, p221). The methyl salicylate in the birch oil continued to aggravate the condition because the natural compounds meant to balance it were insufficient for a battle against the synthetic compound in the medications and the natural compound in the birch oil at the same time. More simply put, the ‘balancing’ substances in the birch were sufficient for the birch; they were wholly inadequate to deal with the deliberate over-dose the drug created.
Why do we use essential oils? Because they are naturally occurring substances, balanced by nature and nature’s Creator. They heal quickly, without the side effects of the clones we call drugs. Never forget, all drugs have side effects!!
Cautions: There are some people who are very sensitive to even natural methyl salicylate. There is someone who is allergic to everything, I suspect. Starting slowly with any essential oil is a good thing.
Niaouli (Melaleuca viridiflora)
Ingredient In: LeMelaPlus
Therapeutic Properties: very strong and powerful antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral, digestive tonic, cytophylactic (tissue regenerating), analgesic, insecticide, decongestant
Affinity For: immune system, respiratory/pulmonary system, skin/muscles, central and governing meridians
Resonance: physical, emotional, spiritual
Plant Family: Myrtaceae
Part of plant used: leaves
Aromatic Considerations: Niaouli is a member of the melaleuca (tea tree) species, but has a sweeter, more delicate scent than the alternafolia variety that we are most familiar with. The aroma of this oil can clear the mind and help us stay alert. Niaouli is a great aid to concentration.
Application: Niaouli can be diluted and applied to any area of the body. It makes a very good disinfectant.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: Niaouli is said to open the inner vision of the soul and direct our thoughts toward heaven. Niaouli can help us focus on higher values and more worthy goals. Niaouli can help us see the bigger picture of our lives and find those things that we were born to do.
Physical Aspects: Niaouli has been shown in studies to be a general immune system booster and effective as a response to allergic reactions. This oil is an excellent antiseptic for treating pulmonary infections, bronchitis, coughs, sinus congestion, and sore throats. The anti-inflammatory properties of this oil make it useful for muscle aches. Naiouli, being a member of the tea tree family, is very antiseptic. It is useful for skin conditions such as cuts, boils, burns, insect bites, and acne.
General Information: Niaouli is often found in pharmaceutical preparations such as gargles, cough drops, toothpastes, and mouth sprays.
Cautions: Niaouli is photo-toxic. Avoid direct sunlight on skin to which niaouli oil has been applied in the last 24 hours.
Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis)
Ingredient In: LeAspire, LeCandila, LeCrystal Clear, LeDandy, LeDelicate, LeDeliverance, LeEnergy, LeLifeForce, LeMelaPlus, LeRevitalize, LeTurmoil, LeSimplicity, LeSpiceC, LeWakeUp, LeWithIn
Therapeutic Properties: antibacterial, anti-catarrhal, anti-infective, antispasmodic, analgesic, balances the endocrine system, mucolytic, tonic, astringent, aphrodisiac, cicatrisive, cytophylactic, pectoral, antidepressant, sedative, calmative, emollient, antiseptic
Affinity For: brain, central nervous system, digestive system, cardiovascular system, respiratory system, liver, skin, urinary, yang energy, solar plexus chakra, liver meridian, small intestine meridian, heart meridian
Resonance: physical, emotional
Plant Family: Labiatae
Part of plant Used: flowering plant
Aromatic Considerations: Rosemary, diffused, stimulates memory function and helps to organize the thought process.
Application: Rosemary can be diluted and applied anywhere on the body. It can be added to shampoo or conditioner to cover gray in darker hair colors.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: In emotional work using essential oils, often the influence of the oil is to create a haven of safety from which the person can relearn how to relate to their world. This is not the case with rosemary. Rosemary fosters an inquisitive spirit. Rosemary sends us out in all directions, looking for light and understanding. Understanding truth is energy in its essential form. Understanding ourselves and what is expected of us by heaven is the most important truth. This understanding is light, and light is knowledge. Rosemary balances heart function and energizes the solar plexus. Rosemary is specific for people who are usually vibrant, organized, industrious, and sensitive. They have become apathetic due to dwelling on perceived hurts or injustices. People needing rosemary rarely become imbalanced from stress or too much work; they thrive on work. Rosemary essential oil can send them on a quest to understand what happened and why. With understanding, or even just beginning to ask the questions that will lead to understanding, comes peace.
Physical Aspects: A glance at the list of physical and energy systems in the Affinity For section above gives you some idea of the wide range of action of this amazingly versatile essential oil. Every body system listed above impacts other body systems until rosemary’s influence resonates throughout the entire system. We will detail just a few of rosemary’s many therapeutic qualities here.
Rosemary’s action on the brain and nervous system makes it useful for loss of memory, learning difficulties, indecisiveness, and mental fatigue. The antiseptic action of rosemary oil is particularly strong for intestinal infections, colitis, flatulence, liver disorders, and respiratory complaints such as sinus congestion and bronchitis. Being antispasmodic and analgesic, rosemary is useful for arthritis, muscle pain and weakness, and headaches. In the cardiovascular area, rosemary assists with arteriosclerosis, palpitations, poor circulation, migraine headaches, and low blood pressure. Rosemary has an affinity for skin care, hair care, and the dissolving of cellulite. Rosemary is used to minimize gray in the hair of brunettes. The astringent properties of rosemary make it effective for dandruff, hair loss, and tightening saggy areas of skin. Rosemary is an excellent oil for exhaustion and general debility, overindulgence in food or drink, and hangovers. Rosemary is mentioned in the
literature as helpful for viral hepatitis.
Cautions: Rosemary should be used cautiously or avoided if pregnant or epileptic.
