Discover Your Spiritual Side with Aromatherapy

When it comes to aromatherapy its all about the mind, body and soul.  A lot of the physically ailments we suffer from are directly or indirectly caused by our mental status.  When you are able to control your mind, many times we can control the body as well.  Howe we handle Stress is the best example of this.

Ever watched the movie called “The Secret?” Rhonda Byrne’s discovery of The Secret began with a glimpse of the truth through a 100 year old book. She went back through centuries, tracing and uncovering a common truth that lay at the core of the most powerful philosophies, teachings and religions in the world.

The Secret teaches us that we create our lives, with every thought every minute of every day. Living The Secret offers tools and ideas to help you live The Secret and create the life of your dreams. Basically, if you just THINK about great things to come your way, they will actually happen.

The Safest Way To Enjoy The Benefits of Aromatherapy During Pregnancy

The remarkable and very scary changes our bodies undergo during pregnancy lead to many discomforts.  Just the morning sickness and fatigue is enough to lower a pregnant woman’s spirits.  And since nearly all medicines and traditional remedies are off-limits to expecting moms, natural methods come as a great relief to help ease these symptoms.




While some pregnant women feel great during pregnancy, this is unfortunately not the case for many.  In addition to proper nutrition and regular exercise, the use of herbs and aromatherapy during the later part of your pregnancy can alleviate many common complaints.

Note: as recommended for most things, it is important that you do not use essential oils during the first trimester of your pregnancy. However, they have many wonderful uses in the last two trimesters and especially during labor.  Most importantly, inhaling essential oils rather than directly applying them to your skin,  is the safest method  to positively affect your overall physical and emotional well-being.

The most frequently used scents for pregnancy are:

• Lavender
  restores unbalanced states to a more harmonious state, and has been said to strengthen contractions. Also helps calm the irritated, fretful or nervous person.

• Bergamot A “ray of sunshine.” This is said to be uplifting, light and refreshing.
•  

Sleep Scentsations Aromatherapy Pillow Liners are the safest aromatherapy diffusers and you can take them with you everywhere you go.  Including the hospital – ANYTHING to help with that crazy thing called Labor!

Treat Yourself and Your Pet to Aromatherapy Relaxation!

The trend toward natural health consciousness in humans is gaining popularity in the animal world, too. Many veterinarians are beginning to introduce natural therapies in their practice, including osteopathy, homeopathy, acupuncture, massage, flower essences and more recently aromatherapy. Aromatherapists and vets have begun to recognize how animals can benefit from this wonderful natural therapy.

For humans and animals alike, essential oils are powerfully antiseptic, detoxifying and revitalizing, thus increasing resistance to disease while strengthening the immune system. Essential oils can also be used to control pet odors and to purify the air from dust, dander and allergens.

Once inhaled, the large nasal cavity of the canine gives plenty of area for the aromatic essential oil molecules to be absorbed into the bloodstream, not only through the nasal cavity, but also the sinuses, throat and lungs. It is in this way that essential oils act so quickly, exhibiting varying degrees of a calming effect. Perfect for super hyper dogs and to also calm barking!

Sleep Scentsations Aromatherapy Pillow Liners are the perfect choice when thinking about trying aromatherapy with your dog or cat.

Hyper Dog?  Try Relaxing Lavender

Smelly Dog?  Try White Tea and lily

Dog that is stuck in the house but  loves the outdoors?  Try Fresh Cut Grass

The “Dream Diet” Lose Weight While You Sleep!!!

According to WebMd, losing weight while you sleep seems to sound too good to be true.   It sounds like something you’d hear on a late night infomercial — just around the time you are reaching for that bag of cookies because, well, you can’t sleep.

But as wild as the idea sounds, substantial medical evidence suggests some fascinating links between sleep and weight. Researchers say that how much you sleep and quite possibility the quality of your sleep may silently orchestrate a symphony of hormonal activity tied to your appetite.

While doctors have long known that many hormones are affected by sleep,  it wasn’t until recently that appetite entered the picture. What brought it into focus, was research on the hormones leptin and ghrelin. First, doctors say that both can influence our appetite. And studies show that production of both may be influenced by how much or how little we sleep.

In fact, have you ever experienced a sleepless night followed by a day when no matter what you ate you never felt full or satisfied? If so, then you have experienced the workings of leptin and ghrelin.

Leptin and ghrelin are two hormones that have been recognized to have a major influence on energy balance. Leptin is a mediator of long-term regulation of energy balance, suppressing food intake and thereby inducing weight loss. Ghrelin on the other hand is a fast-acting hormone, seemingly playing a role in meal initiation.
Ghrelin and leptin are both produced in the body. 

It has been found that thinner people have higher levels of ghrelin production during certain nighttime hours which is lacking in people who suffer from obesity. People who fail to sleep properly over-stimulate their ghrelin production which increases the desire for food. 

Simultaneously, lack of sleep reduces the production of leptin which is the body’s appetite suppressant.
So in short, if you don’t get enough sleep, the hormones in your body get all out of whack and you think that you’re hungry when really you don’t need that food. Caving in to such hunger will lead to excess weight gain.
So now it is safe to say the 3 necessary factors for a healthy weight are:

• Diet
• Exercise
• and SLEEP!

Just another reason to try a natural and inexpensive sleep aid product like Sleep Scentsations Aromatherapy Pillow Scents.

Sleep is 100% necessary to our lives. Every human being has this major basic function in common. Though we all have different sleep patterns, sleep different amounts, and the quality of our sleep varies greatly, sleep is literally necessary for EVERYONE to stay alive.

Unfortunately,  many people live with agonizing and life altering sleep disorders and the importance of sleep is often overlooked.

There are many reasons our bodies need sleep. Sleep is our bodies’ way of rejuvenating. It is the period in which we lower the energy levels expelled each day, our muscles and soft tissue are repaired and revitalized, and our mind is able to process memories and things we have learned for the day. 

Although one day of sleep deprivation is not fatal, it will indeed cause alterations in mood, physical well being, and overall cognitive function. Increased periods of time without sleep with further these negative changes into hallucinations, poor mental clarity, and often provoked disease, or even death. 

 

6 MORE Reasons You Need Better Sleep NOW!

The Harvard Women’s Health Watch suggests six reasons to get enough sleep:

1. Learning and memory: Sleep helps the brain commit new information to memory through a process called memory consolidation. In studies, people who’d slept after learning a task did better on tests later.
2. Metabolism and weight: Chronic sleep deprivation may cause weight gain by affecting the way our bodies process and store carbohydrates, and by altering levels of hormones that affect our appetite.
3. Safety: Sleep debt contributes to a greater tendency to fall asleep during the daytime. These lapses may cause falls and mistakes such as medical errors, air traffic mishaps, and road accidents.
4. Mood: Sleep loss may result in irritability, impatience, inability to concentrate, and moodiness. Too little sleep can also leave you too tired to do the things you like to do.
5. Cardiovascular health: Serious sleep disorders have been linked to hypertension, increased stress hormone levels, and irregular heartbeat.
6. Disease: Sleep deprivation alters immune function, including the activity of the body’s killer cells. Keeping up with sleep may also help fight cancer.
