When Your Brain Keeps Shouting "WHAT IF?"

When Your Brain Keeps Shouting  "WHAT IF?"









We are living in historical times.

And, there is a lot of feelings of panic everywhere you look, and every time you turn on the TV.

So, how are you feeling?

What thoughts are weighing you down?

Because, that's just what they are, thoughts.

Mostly, your brain is constantly saying things like, "What if I lose my house, my car......?"

Or the worst one, "what if I get this virus?"

And, those thoughts are shouting in your head.

It's like that other person has come out from inside and has taken over every logical thought you can have.

Thoughts like these paralyze us.

They stop our momentum in all areas of our lives.

Yet, we don't have to have those thoughts.

We can see this time as an opportunity, not a crisis.

When we stay stuck in our worrisome thoughts we just keep pushing against the flow and start going upstream or uphill.

Our focus gets stuck.

But, it DOESN'T have to be like that!

I can tell you so many stories about when "crisis" happened in my life and when I really looked hard, that crisis became an opportunity.

I also know, at least for me and mine, this is the time to use all your tools to help calm your mind and have peace in times of trouble.

Now more than ever my essential oils are an absolute necessity!

And, doing my Aroma Freedom processes.  

These things keep me flowing in the Law of Attraction and keeps my focus on where it should be.

In the present.

Not the past.

Not the future.

But doing everything I can to stay on track with my goals and dreams.






Being present, knowing and being in touch with your inner spirit will give grounding, hope, and realization that there will be an end to the current situation.

I have wonderful blends of essential oils that truly help me release anxiety, calm, and stir up my creativity to keep focused.

I will post a wonderful DIY for you tomorrow to stay focused and be present.

In these times where worry creeps in, I have a special offer for you.

I want to be here for you!

So, I am offering a complimentary coaching or Aroma Freedom Technique session.

p.s. remember don't let your thoughts run away with "what if's!"






Does Your Mind Play Tricks On You

Does Your Mind Play Tricks On You









We live in a world that's full of constant news, most of it negative.

And, currently, we cannot listen to any media without hearing about the latest health crisis.

So, what does that do to our minds and what thoughts are coming at us?

Whatever we choose!

We do get to choose what thoughts we listen to, even when they are bombarding us!

Our peanut brain (the amygdala) would like us to dwell on past patterns of fear and anxiety.

But, we do not have to listen to it.

We spend a lot of time and energy dwelling on our past and also conjuring up "what might happen" instead.  What if we gathered all that energy,  and returned it to ourselves to focus on being happy and healthy?

I have had times in my life where I spent way too much time and energy on being "anxious" and it generally was about things that hadn't happened, and most likely would not happen.

So, what can I do when fear, or anxiety, hits?

For me, I love to use my senses.

The sense of smell is one of the best senses to use to calm and rationalize in times when your brain wants to panic.

Why?

Because that peanut part of our brain responds directly to smell.

We can use smell, along with choosing the thoughts we want to have, to change old patterns and beliefs that don't serve us anymore.

My favorite essential oils for locking in new beliefs are called "Believe!"

After using other oils, such as Inner Child, a combination of Lavender, Stress Away and Frankincense, or Clarity, Believe will help you to stay focused on your new thought patterns. And, when you continue to use it and affirm your new direction daily, releasing those unwanted belief systems will happen faster.

Mindfulness or Awareness? Which one?

Mindfulness or Awareness?  Which one?





Do you practice mindfulness?

It's truly the buzz word and a very in thing to do.

I practice mindfulness.

I try to diffuse situations from exploding by watching my thoughts.

Well, really my instant reaction, or thought reaction.

If that thought is going to make me upset or frustrated, I try to sit back and look to see if there's a better thought.

It works.

Sometimes, I have to sit and breathe for a few minutes to clear my head and my emotions.

When I do that, I always use an uplifting or clarifying essential oils, like Clarity, or a blend of Frankincense, Lavender and Stress Away, or even an essential oil from the citrus family.

It works.

It takes the immediate flurry of negative, or upsetting thoughts away and replaces it with more rational thoughts.

So, I'm not throwing Mindfulness away, but what if you added awareness to mindfulness?

Ok, well what does that mean?

Let's face it, we all have situations in our lives that arise from time to time, and they are not our cup of tea.

In fact, they can be quite toxic.

And, there are people like that too.  They're just are always negative Nellies, or whining or plain, downright rude.

Often, we can't eliminate all of these situations or people.

It may exist where you work, and there may be people at work or in your family, that you just can't wave a magic wand and make them disappear.

But, you are aware of those situations and those people.

And, you can be fully aware that when you encounter these people and situations that it might not be pleasant.

So, what if you took full advantage of being aware, or being present, and also of being mindful?

What if you change your thoughts and were mindful and aware of the probable situation?

Let me tell you a small story.

I have a close family member that is just unhappy with herself and the rest of the world.

I know this, so when I have to have the encounter, I clear my mind, I use essential oils and the situation does not have to be unpleasant for me anymore.

It works.

It's great!

Why?

Because I'm not trying anymore to change anyone, or any situation, other than myself and my reactions.

Phew!  You wouldn't believe the difference.

That unhappy person becomes just that, and you get to love on that and empathize instead of being frustrated or critical!

So, next time you find yourself suddenly frustrated, take a moment, excuse yourself and go and do some deep breathing for just a couple of minutes.

I know several methods of breathing but the easiest to remember is, breathe in for five seconds, hold for five seconds, and release for five seconds.  Do this until your mind feels clear and you have found a better thought about the person or situation. 

Remember, being present and being mindful will rock your world, and change it!

And, don't be tough on yourself if this takes a little practice.  Remember that part of your brain called the amygdala?  It's that small almond-shaped part of your brain that stores all your memories, patterns and beliefs. Well, it needs more than a few times to get the message and retrain the automatic response it's used to giving you.  

So, here's a couple of tips that I use and I hope helps you............

My secret formula for releasing negative thoughts, equal drops of Frankincense, Lavender, and Stress Away.

My most awesome oil for affirming and confirming new positive thoughts.  Believe.

For diffusing stress, get out the diffuser and put about  3-4 drops each of Lavender and Stress Away, and two drops of Peppermint.  You'll feel relaxed and uplifted!
