Geranium
Geranium I believe plants have this mission to heal you and support us in so many ways. From natural flowers that sit in our homes to remind us of the beauty of Spirit to the powerful medicine that most of them offer, and if we tap in their healing properties they can become such best friends.
I have been exploring with essential oils. Geranium has appeared as one of my recent new friends. Wow. You just feel such a relief and in my experience, I feel soothed by it. I personally love Edens Gardens as a brand for essential oils, but there is many others in the market. Find one with real organic ingredients.
Just a few drops in a carrier oil like Jojoba or almond oil and then use it in your skin or in the mornings to give you a boost as you rub your hands and let the smell get you. Or a few drops in your face cream. Even a few drops to your shampoo or conditioner bottle, or make your own deep hair conditioner. Diffuse aromatically to help relieve occasional stress and tension. Apply over the heart or solar plexus, or breathe from the palm of your hand for connection.
It’s used as a holistic treatment to improve your physical, mental and emotional health. Used by the Egyptians for promoting beautiful and radiant skin, geranium oil is now used to treat acne, reduce inflammation, alleviate anxiety and balance hormones.

Note/Precaution: Always test for skin sensitivity prior to widespread use and use on the feet when possible. Excessive use of any oil can lead to skin sensitization. Keep out of eyes, ears, or nose.
