General Information: Key to My Heart came about originally as a serendipitous mistake made in the blending of Vitality. It still contains many of the same essential oil singles as Vitality, but some oils specifically targeting emotions that are linked to heart dysfunction have been added to the blend.
Physical Aspects: Key to My Heart is very strong in the balancing and repairing of the cardiovascular, circulatory, pulmonary, and lymphatic systems. This blend can be used in conjunction with, or in lieu of, Vitality for heart related and circulatory conditions. The choice should be made according to the emotional patterns, stresses, and needs of the individual. Key to My Heart has proven useful for lowering high blood pressure, reducing stress levels, and increasing stamina and energy levels.
Emotional / Spiritual / Mental Aspects: This blend seems to stabilize and open the emotional and electrical rhythms of the heart and has a dramatic impact on the pericardium, both physically and emotionally. The pericardium is the protective case around the heart and the protective watchman of the emotional heart. Openness in this area allows one to give and receive love, opens us to perceive other people and their intentions accurately and without judgement. An open and well-functioning pericardium is the basis for great and effective leadership. This is an effective oil for those stressful days when one has no choice but to multi-task and do so efficiently and well.
One description of this blend by a frequent user described it as helping to “create a self-disciplined, decided heart.” This is a perfect description of the emotional impact of Key to My Heart. She also mentioned that Key to My Heart gives one “sufficient hope to venture out and go forth and live, while creating a safe atmosphere in which to work.” Key to My Heart contains additional emotionally balancing oils which are not present in Vitality, but is slightly less effective for the physical repair of heart valves.
