Supporting Anxious Feelings with Essential Oils

My feelings are felt in my stomach like I have been kicked. I become hot, hyper sensitive to being touched and movement around me. I often have a feelings of being out of control or trapped. I can’t think clearly, my mind races with irrational thoughts and fear.

Just as our anxious feeling are different so are the oils we go to for support. As we explored what oils best support our emotional well-being we turned to Emotions & Essential Oils: A Modern Resource for Healing and the Emotions & Essential Oils Wheel by Daniel Macdonald 

We like the following essential oils to support our feelings of anxiousness:

Please remember everyone has his or her own journey. No one experience abuse exactly the same. We each have our own triggers and my intent is to aid in the healing process and it is to add awareness to a growing problem not cause anxiety or pain. . Our experience may be similar but they are each unique. Even though many people could have been at the same event each person experiences and remembers those events through our own eyes and will recall the event differently. The information provided is from my perspective. I am a daughter, sister, wife, mother and friend. I am not a Doctor, Counselor or Therapist. I believe it is important to work with Doctors, Counselors, and Therapist along with Energy Healing, Essential Oils and spirituality to find health, healing and balance.
