Parents need all the help they can get, especially during puberty and the teenage years, when hormones and emotions can make one feel like they’re riding an emotional roller coaster. When it comes to dealing with your child’s emotions, what every teenager needs is essential oils! That’s right, I said, ESSENTIAL OILS!
Parents… would you like to bring a sense of peace, stability and calmness to your home? Would you like to help build your child’s self-esteem and confidence? Help reduce stress levels in the home? I can’t think of a better way to help everyone in your home than to use essential oils on a daily basis. Essential oils have a remarkable ability to help one deal with emotions in a healthy way. They can help one move past emotional setbacks and barriers, raise self-esteem, and so much more!
What you may not realize is that your sense of smell is the only way to stimulate the emotional brain. That’s right! There’s no better way to help support everyone’s emotional state and there’s actual science to back up these claims.
“Essential oils have the power to change the atmosphere and mood in any room! Your sense of smell is directly connected to the limbic lobe of your brain, which is the emotional control center. It is responsible for your mood, memory, behavior, feelings, and emotions. Diffusing essential oils in your home provides far more benefits than just a nice smell.”
Start incorporating the use of Young Living essential oils in your home and experience first hand what everyone is talking about.
Where To Start?
The following three essential oil blends… Valor™, Believe™ and Highest Potential™ are a good place to start with teenagers but definitely not your only choices.
Teenagers are not “children” anymore but they’re also not adults. They’re trying to find their way and step out on their own. The use of essential oils can make all the difference when you make them part of your everyday life. The only way you’re going to know that is true is to give them a try and start using them on a consistant basis.
When wanting to affect the emotions diffusion is best. But when you can’t diffuse try applying to shoulders, the back of the neck and the throat/chest– the four points of the body that create the energy field of protection around you.
VALOR®
