This winter has been rough in the
Raleigh area. We've had more cold weather, snow and ice than usual – which
means we've been cooped up more than usual.
I'm feeling a case of Cabin Fever today. Due to
snow and ice this week, I've been inside much longer than I like. I also get a
little ‘strange’ when there is no sun for a couple of days.
As always, I turn to my Young Living
essential oils for help:
·
Citrus oils and blends are uplifting and energizing!
Try
Lemon,
Grapefruit,
Hinoki,
Lime,
Orange,
Tangerine
and blends such as CitrusFresh and StressAway.
·
Florals offer emotional support. Some of my
favorites are YlangYlang, Geranium,
Jasmine,
Neroli,
Rose,
and Joy
or Harmony
blends.
·
If sleep is an issue, try Lavender
or RomanChamomile, or Peace& Calming, RutaVaLa
and Tranquil
blends.
If you suffer from SAD, try
some of the oils I've mentioned. Use light therapy and get outside for at least
a little while every day. Add foods high in tryptophan to your diet, such
as turkey and egg whites. Many fruits raise serotonin levels. Be sure to get a
good night's sleep. If it gets too bad, take a vacation to somewhere warm and
sunny. (Apparently people who live close to the equator don't have SAD.)
I'm off to reset my diffuser
with one of these uplifting oils! So looking forward to spring!!
