Essential Oils for Women | Part 2

As a certified aromatherapist, I make all of my own beauty & body care products! It's insane just how many harmful chemicals & toxins are allowed to be in skincare products in the USA - think all big brand names. Seriously. Caring for my own body with the following essential oils, I felt called to share their specific benefits & uses catered toward women to celebrate Women's History Month! These are just a few essential oils for women that I love working with & thought you might enjoy too.

A tranquil oil, Roman Chamomile brings about emotional balance & soothes menstrual symptoms.

• Diffuse or apply to pulse points to calm emotions

• Rub a few drops with a carrier oil into abdomen, low back, neck, temples to ease pain

Yarrow is a known pain reliever & so much more. From allergies to arthritis to menstruation, this baby helps with so many issues & ailments!

• To soothe arthritis pain, dilute & rub a few drops onto the distressed/inflamed area of concern

• Massage into abdomen with a carrier oil to ease menstruation & menopause

Spikenard is a gem with so many uses! Known to help with cellulite, aging skin, yeast infections, infertility, PMS & more!

• Mix with non-astringent witch hazel in a small spray bottle to aid with aging/irritated skin

• Apply to abdomen or pulse points to relieve PMS symptoms

Steam-distilled Marjoram leaves are turned into this helpful essential oil, which has been used amongst women to bring about hormonal balance & aid with symptoms of menopause.

• Relieve cramps by rubbing some marjoram on your abdomen

• Calm anxiety & headaches by rubbing marjoram on the back of your neck & pulse points

Fennel is one of my favorite scents - a scent known to bring emotions into balance. Fennel seeds are also known to inspire strength & awaken love.

• Dilute & apply over your abdomen to help with menstrual pain, menopause & premenopause

• Diffuse or inhale to balance emotions
