Meditation With Aromatherapy

Meditation With Aromatherapy

Meditation has been used in many cultures worldwide for thousands of years. It aids in clearing and focusing the mind, relaxing and healing the body, and attuning and enlightening the spirit.

Essential oils and aromatherapy have been shown to enhance feelings of being focused and grounded in your meditation. Most health and wellness gurus like Gale Tobin swear by their favorite oil or incense blend, and for good reason. Depending on what you want out of your daily ritual, different oils will give you stronger results than meditation and yoga alone.

Frankincense

Frankincense is a strong, spiced scent that is common for a yoga instructor to use in their studio because it promotes a sense of enlightenment. It strengthens the connection to a higher sense of spiritual self and aids in self-awareness. This is a great essential oil for cleansing and opening the crown chakra.

Sandalwood

Great for the heart and third eye chakras, sandalwood essential oil enhances mental clarity by quieting inner noise and cleansing negative thoughts. It promotes a sense of emotional openness and trust. It supports rest while also encouraging alertness.

Lavender

Lavender essential oil is the best aromatherapy for promoting a night of restful sleep. It calms the mind and body and reduces stress, tension, anxiety, and general mental unrest.

Eucalyptus

The fresh scent of eucalyptus oil does wonders for the heart and solar plexus chakras and is also a natural anti-inflammatory. It’s good for use in deep breathing exercises because it reduces congestion and inflammation to clear your airways. It also soothes other discomforts caused by inflammation such as headaches and muscle cramps.

Rose

Rose oil promotes positive thinking, emotional awareness, and self-love. When used in combination with partner yoga, it heightens feelings of mutual understanding and intimacy. Rose oil promotes healing in the heart and sacral chakras.

Palo Santo

Before using this oil, be sure you research the seller to ensure it is ethical and sustainably sourced, as this tree is endangered. When used respectively and responsibly, Palo Santo cleanses your meditative space and helps to ground your energy, for chakra yoga meditation, this essential oil clears the root chakra.

Sage

Though white sage should be avoided due to its sacred nature in indigenous tradition, there are hundreds of other varieties of sage that anyone can freely use. The most common is garden sage, which cleanses and replenishes energy and enhances alertness and memory recall.

It is important to note that, while aromatherapy has wonderful healing benefits to us, it can harm certain pets. Be mindful of your furry, feathered, and scaled friends in order to safely and effectively use aromatherapy for your yoga and meditation.
