Hi Roger and Sheila,

Roger you had mentioned in my forum to stop by here in regards to essential oils and stress. Essential oils are in my opinion one of the very best things to use when dealing with all types of emotional issues. I have seen them work within seconds to help people transition from negative emotions to more positive ones. Some of the ones that I have found that have worked especially well for stress are: Acceptance, Harmony, Joy, Peace and Calming, Tranquil, Trauma Life and Valor. Essential oils work well not only for people but also for animals.

Here is one experience I will share with you for the benefit of all:
I recently went through a significant change in a close relationship, which resulted in my having a lot of anger, fear and anxiety come up in my face. I used the oils of Release, Joy, and Gratitude to support me in my process of change. They helped me immensely, as I could feel in my physical body and my emotional body the assistance they gave me! I am grateful for these supports in my life!

Dear Barb thank you so much for the  information and for the beautiful picture, the words truly do say so much.

Barb,

Thank you for your prompt and useful contribution.

I have an aromatherapy colleague who uses these oils to wonderfull ends. I do not have the knowledge  but I trust my colleague's judgement.

I am sure that this will help somebody.

I was thinking today about Oils and Crystals, both of which have been a large part of my early training in Vibrational Kinesiology, and although I use a specific range of Crystals I remembered making up a broader list of Crystals and their uses some years ago when I spent an afternoon speaking to a group of care workers who were involved in a fairly intense program with abused and neglected children.

The management of this group gave their team a regular 2 days away with a variety of speakers and modalities to assist them to 'de stress' at the end of the day.

I was invited to speak to them and spent a pleasant day travellng, lunching and speaking in a pretty part of Victoria Australia which was then my home state.

So these may be of use to you if you would like to work with / relax with Crystals. I am not an expert by any means and there is a good deal of information out there for any one who is interested.

As a practitioner I would often 'send' a client home with a specific crystal, or a recommendation to purchase one for their own use. For children I had a 'treasure chest' from which they could choose 'their' favourite crystal to take home.

One small boy used to 'bring' his crystals to visit with me when he came with his mother.

**Remember that you can keep a / your crystal in your pocket, hold it in your hand, for the ladies rose quartz for unconditional love inside your bra is a good place especially for the heart centre, put one under your pillow, or where you can see it eg your desk, window sill etc. Thay do not need to be huge, a small piece works very well and can be inexpensive.

Peace Love and Light
