Aromatic Considerations: The aroma of LeEternity balances energy and improves both mood and mental outlook.
Physical Aspects: LeEternity has powerful anti-oxidant properties. It enhances vitamin and mineral absorption for the overall improvement of health and vitality. LeEternity, because it helps the body absorb calcium, can help prevent such things as osteoporosis.

Aromatic Considerations: The aroma of this essential oil blend can aid us in maintaining confidence and courage while it helps us improve our overall attitude. It is almost like being given a fresh new outlook and start in life.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: LeExhilaration is especially beneficial in those situations which appear hopeless and discouraging. With the use of this blend we find our emotions strengthening and stabilizing until we are able to see new and different solutions to old problems. It is as if there are now several paths available to us, but we previously could only see one way out of the woods. Suddenly we are able to see our surroundings in a more comprehensive way. LeExhilaration is also used to release emotional blocks and help us let go of negative feelings and perceptions.
Recent studies have shown that it is in the amygdala (located in the temporal lobes of the brain) where solutions to problems are developed. When we look at a situation, wanting to know what we should do, the amygdala ‘lights up’ and begins to present our minds with possible solutions. Activity in the amygdala increases with the use of LeExhilaration. This increased brain activity gives us more ability to see various new solutions to old problems.
Physical Aspects: Several of the oils in this blend are oils that profoundly affect physical body systems. Some are anti-inflammatories and others target specific organs or functions. If your physical body has been strained or weakened by situations that are testing your courage and confidence, LeExhilaration can be of benefit to you. It may have an impact on physical things that you did not realize were connected to the emotions you were feeling.

Affinity for: emotions, digestive system, urinary tract
Resonance: physical, emotional
Application: LeLetting Go should be applied directly over the liver, on the bottom of the feet, or behind the ears. This blend is very nice in a bath or diffused.
Aromatic Consideration: LeLetting Go is a favorite blend of many people. By letting go of negative emotions, we can create feelings of tolerance and compassion towards the faults & foibles of the human race, including ourselves. Regular use of this essential oil blend can help us develop feelings of trust, safety, and security.
Physical Aspects: LeLetting Go of the emotional baggage that we don’t need can have an energizing effect on the colon, kidneys, liver and gall-bladder in particular.
Chamomile, Roman (Chamaemelum nobile)
Ingredient In: LeAssurance, LeBaby Me, LeEZ Traveler, LeRefreshMint, LeRevitalize, LeVision, LeWhispering Hope
Therapeutic Properties: calmative, analgesic, antibiotic, febrifuge, anti-inflammatory, immune stimulant
Affinity For: reproductive system, digestive system, nervous system, spleen meridian, bladder meridian, yin energy, throat chakra
Resonance: physical, emotional
Plant Family: Compositae
Part of Plant Used: flowers
Application: Chamomile Roman can be applied to the base of the neck, on the temples, and over the liver. It can be added to shampoo or conditioner to cover gray in lighter hair colors.
Aromatic Considerations: The aroma of chamomile Roman, in my opinion, is the most relaxing scent in the entire essential oil world. Chamomile Roman is powerfully soothing. The soothing action of this oil applies to both physical and emotional conditions alike. Diffused, this oil creates an atmosphere of peace and patience.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: Chamomile Roman smooths the flow of the chi energy throughout the body. It is this regulation of vital energy that makes chamomile Roman so powerfully soothing to both physical and emotional conditions. In fact, so powerfully does this oil unravel the negative emotions behind physical ailments, that it is sometimes hard to tell if it is working at an emotional or a physical level. Chamomile Roman is of great benefit in the treatment of chronic headaches, insomnia, nervous indigestion and nausea, and irritable bowel syndrome—to name just a few. The smoothing out of the vital energy prevents the build-up of energetic heat, which manifests in the body as inflammation. This chamomile is particularly beneficial for alleviating neuritis, cystitis, rheumatoid arthritis and earache. One of the outstanding uses of chamomile Roman essential oil is for babies with colic, babies who startle awake and then cry for a long time, and infants that are just plain fussy and want to be held and comforted most of the day and night.
Physical Aspects: This variety of chamomile, though containing less deep blue azulene, has anti-inflammatory properties. It is of benefit when applied to aching muscles and joints. Because it is so mild and soothing, chamomile Roman is wonderful in the tub or used in a compress. This oil is very soothing for menstrual cramps, nausea, PMS, tension, and nerves. Chamomile Roman cleanses the blood and reduces allergic reactions. Allergy sufferers can find a great deal of relief by carrying an inhaler or just a few drops of this oil on a tissue or cotton ball. Chamomile Roman is an antihistamine and soothing to inflamed tissues.
General Information: The plant from which chamomile Roman is distilled is very tender and delicate. It must be harvested at precisely the right moment in its growth cycle. To accomplish this, growers concerned with quality do a test distillation every few days as the plant matures. They have the distillation analyzed using gas chromatography. This insures the therapeutic quality of the essential oil.
Cautions: Chamomile Roman is, occasionally, found on lists that claim it should to be used with caution during pregnancy. I think, perhaps, those lists are being a little too cautious. This is a very mild essential oil.
Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens)
Ingredient In: LeAspire, LeBalance, LeCandila, LeCypernium, LeDandy, LeDelicate, LeEndo Relief, LeIQ, LeRefresh-Mint, LeTomorrow, LeVisibility, LeVitality,LeWarm Down
Therapeutic Properties: mucolytic, hepatic, astringent, antispasmodic, antisudorific, diuretic, restorative, vasoconstrictor, respiratory tonic, calmative, astringent
Affinity For: circulation, pancreas, respiratory system, reproductive system, muscles, joints, lymphataic drainage, liver, yin energy, throat chakra, solar plexus chakra, central vessel meridian,
spleen meridian
Resonance: physical, emotional, spiritual
Plant Family: Coniferae/Cupressacea (sub)
Part of plant used: twigs, leaves
Application: Cypress can be diluted and applied anywhere on the body. It is also excellent applied to the bottoms of the feet.
Aromatic Considerations: Cypress is a wonderful healer for the spirit. It brings the feeling that each new day is a fresh start on our road to glowing life and health. Change is a part of life. Times of transition can be positive if we allow them to be. If we struggle against the changes, trying to hang on to what was, our life can feel like an unending struggle. Interestingly, cypress—while not a sedative—is useful for insomnia. Perhaps the optimism it brings quiets the usual worry that is keeping one awake.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: Cypress is considered in many cultures to be symbolic of life after death. It may be useful when facing death or other separations. The aroma of cypress opens us to direction from heaven. Cypress can help soften unbending and inflexible attitudes. Cypress seems to bring balance to our attitudes about money. It has the effect of loosening purse strings that are
being held too tightly. Cypress can help us learn to enjoy the bounty that we have. Perhaps those who need to can even learn to spend a little on something that is not an absolute necessity.
Physical Aspects: Cypress strengthens capillary walls, reducing varicose veins and hemorrhoids. Cypress is a respiratory, lymphatic, liver, pancreas, and prostate decongestant. This makes cypress useful for a wide variety of ailments. Cypress is a mild, but effective, diuretic. It should be tried for water retention, cellulite, menstrual bloating, and menopausal problems. Cypress is one of the best oils for muscle cramps and healing wounds. In fact, cypress is one of the best single oils to reach for in many circumstances. I love and use mostly blends, but cypress is so complex and far reaching that it is almost like a blend all by itself.
Cautions: Cypress is mildly estrogenic and should be avoided by most pregnant women. It is, however, used for toxemia when at least part of the cause is an estrogen imbalance.
Tangerine (Citrus reticulota)
Ingredient In: LeEverlasting, LeHeartSong, LeHoliday Spirit, LeInsight, LeSunburst, LeTranquility
Therapeutic Properties: anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, laxative, sedative, calmative, nervine, cytophylactic
Affinity For: respiratory system, digestive system, nervous system, spleen meridian
Resonance: physical, emotional
Plant Family: Rutaceae
Part of plant Used: fruit
Aromatic Considerations: Like all citrus oils, tangerine promotes feelings of happiness and peace. It encourages us to reach out to others with kindness and compassion.
Application: Tangerine should be diluted before applying to the skin.
Emotional/Spiritual Aspects: Tangerine essential oil is a very pleasant sedative. It soothes all types of hyperactivity, whether in the body or the mind. Tangerine can have a substantial effect on anger, depression, and impulsive behaviors.
Physical Aspects: Tangerine has been proven effective against Staphylococcus aureus. This is the species of bacteria which is responsible when wounds become septic. A septic wound quickly
spreads to other parts of the body, even if there is no wound there. Tangerine oil contains components which kill the bacteria and stop it from spreading. Tangerine’s antispasmodic actions are effective all over the body. This essential oil can be used for spasms in the respiratory and digestive systems, as well as in muscle groups. Tangerine essential oil is an effective blood purifier and it
increases the oxygen carrying capacity of red blood cells. Tangerine is helpful in removing excess water from body tissues and is a mild lymphatic decongestant.
General Information: Tangerine essential oil and mandarin essential oil are distilled, in different countries, from plants that are identified by the same latin name, citrus reticulata. That is very strange, since the plants, themselves, are quite different, as are the fruits. The fruit, the juice, and the essential oil of tangerine are much more orange in color than those of mandarin. They are harvested at different times of year, and this has a subtle effect on aroma and therapeutic properties.
Cautions: Tangerine essential oil is photo-toxic. Avoid direct sunlight on skin to which this oil has been applied in the last 12 hours.
