Open the heart, motivate and ground your energy – not just for inspiration but for success.  

Empower your feminine energy with our Goddess Blend Room Spray

A magical blend of Yuzu, Mandarin, Rose, De Mai, Vetiver and Frankincense oils to help open the heart, motivate and ground your energy for inspiration and success throughout your day.

Many mentors and role models today are speaking of “opening our hearts”, “showing up real and authentic”, and “being transparent.”  What a refreshing dialogue this is in the ever-changing world we live in. 

A board on Pinterest shared the following: “Feminine Energy – It’s what you feel when you are at rest, after a massage. When you feel soft. When you play and dance like no one is watching. When you feel radiant and somehow attract all attention to you, you know that feeling? That’s the feminine coming through you…”   author unknown

When is the last time you played? 
When is the last time you danced? 
Have you ever felt radiant? 

Yuzu, Mandarin, Rose, Vetiver – is a magical blend.  Let’s break that down a bit!

Yuzu is the Japanese cousin of lemon! 
Mandarin – The citrus fruit.
Rose – the flower of all flowers and love.
Vetiver, an oil obtained from the root of an exotic grass, evokes earthy, leathery and smoky tones.
Vetiver’s scent has been described as fresh cut grass but with warmer and richer undertones.

Now take all the above and add in Frankincense’s ability to calm and soothe emotions and you have an amazing winning combination.  It deepens the breath, helping you take stock of a stressful situation and grounds you. Part of its ability to relax the breath is also useful for respiratory conditions, and it can help soothe coughs and sinus-related discomfort.

Why use a room spray? 

The instantaneous results of course!  

With this product you do not have to wait for the candle to burn to the wax, you do not have to wait for the water in the diffuser to hit the oil, you do not have to shower to apply… You merely spray and the results are there. 

The results are there not just for you but for everyone sharing the space with you…  Impactful.

Imagine a room spray not filled with chemicals and potentially harmful products – but a room spray that is good for you both in smell and energetic properties.

How long will the 2 oz spray last? 

We did a bit of research and found that the average is – “a 2 oz bottle can provide approximately 300 to 360 sprays. If you apply 2-3 sprays per use, it could last you around 4 to 6 months with daily use.”

Order one today for your home and offices.

Empower yourself – and impact those in your space Winning combinations.

September is here!  Some of us may be having thoughts of the Fall Season that is heading our way. 

Some may be dreaming of pumpkin spice and their first latte, holiday gatherings, and cooler temperatures.

However, most when they think of the Fall Season, they think of leaves turning brilliant colors, covering to the ground in a blanket of color and those strolls in nature and the crunching of leaves.

September also brings about our Fall Essences.

 Sandalwood Teak Essence is our featured Essence of the month! 

The name says it all.  It makes you think of trees, nature, and woodsy essences.  This is a blend of Teakwood and Sandalwood.  This calming blend of teak and sandalwood is a grounding blend.

Do you meditate?  Many meditate and many strive to find that meditative ‘state’ as often as they can.  Craving that calm, peaceful, few moments can make the world of difference for us during our day. 

We ask – “Do you meditate?” because often Sandalwood Oil is commonly used in meditation practices.  It is known for its calming properties and is an oil that has been noted to quiet the central nervous system. 

Teakwood – We asked Google how one could describe this smell to those who have not experienced it, and we love the answer we received. 

“Teakwood Fragrance Oil: The smell of the log cabin where you
camped for a long weekend.”  *Google Resource.

Calm and grounding. 

On our website under the “About Us” section is something that was written many years ago. 

“My aromatherapy and body products were created to open and heal the body’s energy centers.” 
Nicholas Cappele, Alchemist

This has never changed.  This is our why.

Sandalwood Teak Essence = Calming and Grounding.  This blend as we go into Fall and what some may experience as a busy season with holidays, gatherings, year-end goals to meet can be a great tool to use to assist you.  A blend to ‘take you away’ – meditative moments, grounding moments.

H2E Aromatherapy offers a variety of products that contain the Sandalwood Teak essence:

Body Oil Roll-On

Shampoo/Conditioner

Candles

Body Lotion

Have you ever taken ‘action’ and felt the ripple effect of your positive giving/moment come back to you in ways you never imagined?  Have you had that ‘karmic’ moment?

We don’t share this to be boastful, but we always donate a portion from our Good Karma Collection to a local non-profit in our community. 

Why?  It is the right thing to do! 

We have been in business a long time and it is due to hard work; amazing customers (like you) and we believe it is also because of doing good and karma coming back to us. 

If you knew you could do something good for someone, something good in your local community and as a result start a positive great happy ripple of Karmic energy that will come back your way – would you not want to jump up and get into ‘action’?

Karma = Action

Is CBD legal?

All 50 states have laws that legalize CBD, but the number of restrictions can vary from state to state.

The 2018 Farm Bill made hemp legal in the United States, which is what CBD is derived from. With this bill, CBD is legal when it comes from hemp, not marijuana.

Hemp and marijuana plants are of the same species, and both contain CBD, but the difference between these two plants lies in their concentrations of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). This is a type of cannabinoid, and the one that is primarily responsible for the “high” associated with cannabis.

Hemp refers to cannabis that contains 0.3% or less THC. With such a low THC level, it is unlikely to result in a high, which is why the CBD that comes from hemp also produces no high.

Uses For CBD

There are numerous health benefits of CBD.

One significant application of CBD is for childhood epilepsy syndromes, such as Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) and Dravet syndrome. These conditions are usually unresponsive to antiseizure medications, but many studies have shown that CBD can reduce the number of seizures and may even stop them completely. Epidiolex is a medication containing CBD and is the first cannabis-derived medicine approved by the FDA.

However, CBD can also produce health benefits for conditions not so medically involved. For instance, clinical trials show that CBD can help reduce anxiety and help with falling and staying asleep. For mental health disorders, in particular, CBD is seen as an appealing treatment option that bypasses the side effects common in pharmaceutical treatments, such as sexual dysfunction, insomnia, and headaches. These medications may also become addicting, whereas CBD does not.

Those with chronic pain may also benefit from CBD, with animal studies showing that topical application of CBD may help with pain and inflammation from arthritis.

Research has also linked CBD with benefits for the heart, such as lower blood pressure, which is associated with a lower risk of heart attack, stroke, and metabolic syndrome.

Side Effects of CBD

CBD has some potential side effects, such as fatigue, nausea, and irritability. Additionally, it may increase the amount of blood thinning and other medicine in the blood, so it is best to talk to your doctor before taking it to ensure you are safe to do so.

Despite these few side effects, the World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that not only does CBD show no addictive qualities, but there has not been any evidence of public health-related problems due to the use of pure CBD.

Navigating Marketing for CBD

CBD is primarily marketed as a supplement, not a medication, so the FDA does not regulate it. With this in mind, it is crucial that you purchase your CBD-containing products from a reputable source, such as H2E Aromatherapy.

With H2E Aromatherapy, you are guaranteed to receive products with CBD (extracted from the hemp plant’s flowers and leaves), not hemp oil (extracted from the seeds). While hemp oil offers benefits, it does not contain cannabinoids, which is what offers the distinct benefits of CBD. If you’re interested in how CBD can help you, check out our online marketplace to find a CBD product that relieves aching muscles, rejuvenates your skin, or offers an improvement in your overall well-being.

Essential Oil Uses

Essential oils have many uses, such as improving the scent of a particular room or supplementing healing practices.

They accomplish this second feat because, when inhaled, the scent molecules travel from the olfactory nerve to the brain. From there, they interact with the limbic system, a region of the brain in charge of regulating memories, emotions, and sensations.

Essential oils can also be combined with a carrier oil and placed on the skin, where the body can absorb them into the bloodstream and distribute them throughout the body.

A Note on Marketing

While essential oils have seen heavy marketing recently because of their many benefits, it is important to remember where their true strengths lie. Namely, remember that they cannot cure diseases and are not a magic pill, but they can still be a helpful addition for anyone looking to follow a healthy lifestyle.

For example, essential oils cannot replace surgery or medications such as antibiotics, but they can still relieve unpleasant symptoms, making them an effective tool in your healthcare arsenal.

The Health Benefits of Essential Oils

When it comes to the health benefits of essential oils, they serve less as a treatment for various conditions and instead as a way to boost both your physical and mental health.

For instance, peppermint oil can help relieve headaches, likely from its menthol component, while has analgesic and cooling properties. Research has found that these benefits are at their greatest when the peppermint oil is applied around the head and temple.

Yet another way that essential oils can help your physical health is through nausea relief. Peppermint and ginger are the most effective in this regard, with peppermint, in particular, showing an ability to relax the muscles of your gastrointestinal tract. As for ginger, it helps to encourage the digestive process, keeping food from getting stuck in the gastrointestinal tract. These benefits can help those with nausea from chemotherapy, pregnancy, or indigestion.

Mental health can improve from essential oils, as well, because of their ability to reduce stress and calm anxiety. In fact, this is often the number one reason why someone may seek out aromatherapy. A review found that inhaling or ingesting lavender essential oil or using it in massage treatments can help lower anxiety levels, likely from its linalool and linalyl acetate compounds that have calming properties.

Side Effects of Essential Oils

Even though essential oils are natural, they are not always safe.

Some potential side effects of essential oils include:

–       rashes

–       headaches

–       asthma attacks

–       allergic reactions

To limit side effects, be sure to use them correctly, such as by inhaling them or combining them with a carrier oil before being used on the skin.

Try Essential Oils to Improve Your Health

Are you ready to supplement your life and promote overall health? Give essential oils a try and see how they can address minor aches and pains, improve your well-being, and make your medical treatments even more effective.

For all your essential oil needs, whether body oil, lotion, or general essential oils, H2E Aromatherapy has what you need.
