Greetings
& Salutations my Friends!! I’m
delighted you chose to join me this fair day.
Today I would enjoy sharing some of my personal experiences with
peppermint.
We’ll
start with the fact I’m spoiled. I tend
to act in that way occasionally. It’s
never pleasant & I’m always embarrassed by my lack of control once I calm
down. I’ve been looking for effective
ways of gaining the control before acting like a two year old & in
peppermint oil I may have found my answer.
Work
seems to be the place that frustrates me the most, so I keep a bottle with a
small amount of peppermint oil. It’s
right up next to my monitor where I see it.
When an event occurs & I feel the negativity bubbling up, I grab my
little bottle, holding it close to my nose & inhale slowly &
deeply. I enjoy the freshness of the
aroma. I feel my positive self rising to
the top. Then I exhale slowly, letting
go of the frustration, letting the heat out.
I’ll usually do one more inhale/exhale, then return the bottle to its place
& go about my day. I’m starting to
notice now, that at other times, when I feel unreasonable, I can stop, focus on
peppermint & bring the peace back to me.
The joy of seeing this growth is overwhelming.
Another
use I have found for peppermint is my ear.
Here’s a bit of background. For
the last 10 yrs or so I’ve developed an itching in my ears. The doctor I’ve had for the last few years
recommended a natural cortisone I could pick up at a health food store. It did alleviate the itching, but it never
went away.
Then
in March of this year, after flying to Montana & back I developed a
horrible ear ache. I went to urgent care
3 times for the same issue. Their ways
did not fix the underlying issue. The itching has stopped though. 😊 I was finally able to end the aching using a
home remedy.
As
of today, I am still having occasional issues, but most are gone. But when my ear does start to act up, I use a
drop or two of peppermint oil on a spot of cotton. I place the cotton against my ear opening,
not inside the canal & go to bed.
When I wake up in the morning all the symptoms are gone.
Peppermint
has become one of my favorites to drop in my little tealight warmer. I get home from a hectic day & a little
peppermint warming next to me turns my evenings around. It gives me that second wind to get through
making my dinner, feeding my animals, doing[H1] [H2]
some dabbling in my on-line store, https://www.lbelitearomas.com/,
ending it with yoga & meditation.
Thank
you for spending your time with me this day.
I do enjoy it. Please leave any
comments, I would love to hear from you.
In
the meantime, Be Blessed.
