Despite the fact that I have been studying anatomy and biology for the last 4 years, hormones are still a bit of a mystery to me. Our creator was definitely a great bio-engineer when it came to designing our hormonal system. For some reason the most burden of hormonal balancing lays on women, as well as pregnancy, childbirth, monthly cycle and other 100 things we need to deal daily with. So no wonder our hormones do get tired along with our nervous system.
About 8 years ago, when I was first introduced to Aromatherapy in Europe and started using essential oils for severe back pain and stress, I noticed almost instantly that my monthly blues and moodiness improved and became much easier to deal with. There was less crying and my desire to “want to kill all male species including my boss and neighbor” also subsided. My aromatherapist explained to me that some oils, which she blended for me to deal with stress and nervousness, also have good hormonal balancing properties. I guess that was another reason why I became interested in studying Aromatherapy.
However, my biggest motivation for creating a special blend, which I called “Moon Cycle Harmony” and is now one of our best sellers, was my beautiful daughter Katie. When she starting her transition into teenage years, she had bad cramping and pain during her cycle days. Naturally the first thing I did was to blend her some cramp-relieving oils, I was overjoyed when 20 minutes after applying this blend she got of the bed and told me that pain was gone! And started thinking of 2-in-1 formulas, which could help other women and girls to relieve all the unpleasant symptoms of monthly cycle including PMS. I tested few various essential oil combinations, gave few bottles for free to my friends and family and eventually "Moon Cycle Harmony" therapeutic blend was born. I carefully combined essential oils, which would be beneficial to female hormonal system as well as would help with blues, nervousness and even cramping when applied on the lower abdomen. Essential oils used in this formula have proven themselves to work every time anyone uses this blend. One of my favorites - is an essential oil of Clary Sage (Salvia Sclarea), I love its smell and the effect it has on me, besides being an excellent nervine, it also balances hormones and helps tonify nervous system so we feel less tired during “those” days. Clary Sage also helps to increase creativity, enhances dreams, it soothes the spirit and balances over-active mind
Dear Readers, it is important to remember, that a single Essential Oil in most cases in simply not enough to deal with physical or emotional issues like PMS. Essential oils are at their best when are carefully blended by an educated aromatherapist or naturopath and can work in synergy with each other. And that’s exactly why we are here for, to deliver you the best of our knowledge and experience of using essential oils as an effective remedy that Mother Nature provided with love for all of us.
