Product Descriptions
Breezy
Ingredients: birch, eucalyptus, lemon, peppermint, ravensara
Affinity for: respiratory system, immune system, skin, muscles
Resonance: physical
Application: LeBreezey should be diluted and rubbed on the chest or back. It can also be diffused or placed on your pillow at night.
Aromatic Considerations: LeBreezey opens bronchial and sinus passages very effectively and has been successful in alleviating snoring.
Physical Aspects: LeBreezey, besides being very effective in times of illness, is an excellent respiratory tonic and immune stimulant. The inclusion of ravensara oil creates viral fighting and tissue rebuilding properties, especially for the lung and bronchial tissues. This blend should also be tried for conditions such as colds, asthma, allergies, sinus congestion, and flu. LeBreezey is an immune stimulant. LeBreezey makes an excellent muscle relaxant and pain reliever when you do not have LeWarm Down or LeDeeper handy and you have strained a muscle.
General Information: LeBreezey is often used alternately with LeAspire.
Inner Peace
Ingredients: angelica, cinnamon, copaiba balsam, frankincense, lavender, palmarosa, rosewood, sandalwood, spruce, ylang ylang
Affinity for: emotional balance, pineal gland, pituitary gland, heart chakra, small intestine meridian
Resonance: emotional, physical, spiritual
Application: One specific and effective way to apply LeInner Peace is across the forehead, moving from the right temple to the left temple. It can also be placed on the chest to cover the heart and the thymus. This blend is very good in the tub or as a perfume, if your mood is right. (See unique information section below.)
Aromatic Considerations: LeInner Peace helps to collect our thoughts and connect our heart and mind. This connection to ourselves creates a solid and balanced center from which we can
connect to others.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: LeInner Peace can aid us in staying focused and clear, particularly about the direction of our lives. It promotes harmony between ourselves and others, and between
ourselves and God. This blend helps us feel genuine compassion for others, and aids us in forming rewarding relationships.
Much like LeBenediction, LeInner Peace protects the energies of our bodies and minds from attack and depletion by the energies of others. Though protected energetically, LeInner Peace leaves us
open, compassionate, and willing to be of service if we desire. It can also be helpful if we fear or hate being alone.
LeInner Peace can help us with acceptance of ourselves and others and with the calm acceptance of the changes that life brings to us all. For emotional work, use with LeSanctuary and LeMagi.
ThermaCare
Ingredients: coriander, goldenrod, litsea cubeba, peppermint, yellow yarrow
Affinity for: nervous system, fevers
Resonance: physical, emotional
Application: LeTherma-care should be diluted well and applied to the back of the neck and down the spine. It is also effective to apply LeTherma-care to the bottoms of the feet.
Aromatic Consideration: It is better to apply this essential oil blend to the body. Diffusing might be pleasant but may not give you the results in fever reduction that you need.
Physical Aspects: LeTherma-care was specifically designed to aid in gently reducing the very high fevers we have been seeing with these high-powered and quick-onset flu ‘bugs.’ The use of this essential oil to reduce the fever is especially nice with children. In addition to the fever reducing properties of the yarrow and the peppermint, the coriander is well renowned for giving strength both during an illness and during the convalescent stages.
Marjoram (Marjorana hortensis or Origanum marjorana)
Ingredient In: LeAspire, LeBalance, LeMyGraine, LeSolitude, LeTendaCare, LeVitality, LeWarmDown, LeWomanWise
Therapeutic Properties: antispasmodic, arterial vasodilator, expectorant, digestive, analgesic, calming, sedative, antitussive, antiseptic, antibiotic, anti-infective, diuretic, emmenagogue
Affinity For: respiratory system, digestive system, reproductive areas, cardiovascular system, yang energy, solar plexus chakra, governing vessel meridian, stomach and spleen meridians
Resonance: physical, emotional
Plant Family: Labiatae
Part of Plant Used: leaves
Application: Dilute and apply to the feet or any area of the body.
Aromatic Considerations: The aroma of marjoram oil can warm the soul in times of grief, sorrow, or loneliness.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: Marjoram is quieting to obsessive worry where negative thoughts circle repetitively in the brain hour after hour. This type of obsessive worry is an indication of
depleted or stressed earth energy. Marjoram essential oil is also helpful for those who seem to love being in the center of some sort of drama all the time. This need for attention is a manifestation of an energetically depleted earth meridian with its ‘lack of something’ perception. In this instance, the feeling of deprivation focuses on family or friends. We are sure that ‘no one cares’ about us as they should. The aroma of marjoram oil can eliminate feelings of loneliness or persecution, replacing them with feelings of security and even some compassion for others.
Physical Aspects: Marjoram eases respiratory distress and infections such as bronchitis. It is often beneficial for spasmodic dry coughs. The analgesic properties of marjoram make it an appropriate choice for muscle aches, sprains, strains, and arthritis. Marjoram essential oil helps bruising to clear and fade more quickly. Marjoram increases the dilation of blood vessels, lowers blood pressure, and eases heart palpitations. It can ease headaches that are caused by muscle tension or lack of circulation. Marjoram oil increases the tone and effectiveness of parasympathetic nerves. One benefit of healthy parasympathetic nerves is an increase in the peristalsis in the colon. Marjoram regulates the menstrual cycle, relieves pain and cramping.
General Information: Marjoram was known as the ‘herb of happiness’ to the early Romans and ‘joy of the mountain’ to the Greeks.
Cautions: Marjoram should be used sparingly during pregnancy.
Spruce Canadian (Tsuga canadensis)
Ingredient In: LeAspire, LeAssurance, LeBenediction, LeConnection, LeDeeper, LeDiscernment, LeDreams, LeEverlasting, LeHoliday Spirit, LeInner Peace, LeMagi, LeMeditation, LeMillenia, LePatches, LeSanctuary, LeStefanie, LeTrust, LeUnity, LeVision, LeWhispering Hope, LeWisdom
Therapeutic Properties: anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, cortisone-like
Affinity For: bones, joints, muscles, endocrine system, especially the thyroid and thymus, solar plexus chakra, brow chakra, governing vessel meridian, heart meridian, liver meridian
Resonance: physical, emotional
Plant Family: Coniferae
Part of plant used: needles, leaves
Aromatic Considerations: The aroma of Canadian spruce is calming to the nervous system. It encourages communication, both the speaking and listening aspects.
Application: Spruce can be applied, diluted, to the feet or any other area of the body. Spruce is very pleasant in the bath or sauna. It is frequently used as an ingredient in room sprays, soaps, and detergents.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: Spruce (and other conifers) create the symbolic effect of an umbrella which protects the earth and brings energy in from the universe. At night the animals of the forest lie down under a conifer tree for the protection and rejuvenation that the tree will provide for them. Spruce grounds the solar plexus and stimulates the thymus, creating the emotional balance
necessary to be gracious at both giving and receiving. Spruce can help us push through emotional blocks to further healing.
Physical Aspects: The analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties of spruce make it beneficial for bone pain, aching joints, arthritis, and sciatica. Spruce should be massaged wherever sore muscles need relaxing and re-energizing. Spruce is an excellent oil for the respiratory and endocrine systems. Spruce is a general gland and organ tonic, but it has an intrinsic affinity for balancing the thyroid
function and stimulating the thymus gland.
General Information: The aroma of Canadian spruce is that of a forest of conifer trees, but with a strong balsamy vanilla undertone, which is very comforting to the emotions. Tsuga canadensis is Canadian spruce, not the species called black spruce, which is Picea marianna. Tsuga canadensis seems to be consistently sweeter, more mellow, and with more of the balsam and vanilla notes that I love than Picea marianna. Canadian spruce adds a rich depth to blends that is not usually accomplished with any other variety of spruce.
Tea Tree (Melaleuca alternifolia)
Ingredient In: LeCandila, LeMela Plus, LePurify, LeSimplicity
Therapeutic Properties: antibacterial, antifungal, antiseptic, antiviral, immune stimulant, antibiotic, antiparasitic, vulnerary, anti-inflammatory, expectorant, decongestant, analgesic
Affinity For: tissue and skin
Resonance: physical, emotional
Plant Family: Myrtaceae
Part of plant Used: leaves
Aromatic Considerations: Tea tree is a very strong and pungent oil. It is very effective in killing air-borne bacteria.
Application: Tea tree should be diluted before applying to the skin except in the case of insect bites, where it is best applied neat.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: The aroma of tea tree can help us replace a victim mentality with a desire to understand why events and circumstances happen. Tea tree can be used to bring both tolerance and growth into our lives. Tea tree starts the process of spiritual and emotional cleansing. It can help us turn toward the positive and find refreshment for our spirit. The aroma of tea tree essential oil has the feel of a good friend who has come to help us ‘clean house’. The cleaning up and throwing out will be good for us and will be far less painful than we have imagined it would be.
Physical Aspects: Tea tree essential oil is effective against some of the nastiest microbes on the planet. Tea tree can prevent sepsis in wounds and it (or something else effective) should be used to treat wounds, boils, sores, cuts, insect bites, and stings. The only way to kill a virus is to weaken or rupture its protective shell—called a cyst. Tea tree oil has been shown effective in this capacity,
which greatly shortens the duration of viral infections. Tea tree is also a mild tissue regenerator, making it a sensible choice for rashes, nail or skin fungal infections, wounds, cold sores, acne, athlete’s foot, ringworm, head lice, vaginal thrush (dilute very well here), and candida.
General Information: Tea tree has been in use as an antiseptic for centuries. It was used by soldiers and sailors in World War II in the treatment of tropical infections.
