Aromatherapy Blog - Essential Oils Blends for Meditation & Spiritual Health

Breathe ...breathe breath deep, we all hear its the be all, and end all to get us into a deep meditative relaxing state. But how do you turn of the busy mind that's constantly chattering. Telling you, reminding and niggling that the washing needs folding, to pick up the dry cleaning, that your sons karate uniform needs washing for training tonight. Or that you haven't paid the car registration. Or taken the fish out for tonight dinner. Or maybe your mother in laws coming over for dinner and your wondering how on earth, your going to get the house tidy and vacuumed in under an hour before she arrives. All while smiling and seeming like you've got every thing under control.
