Weighless Aromablend Appetite Suppressant

Weighless Aromablend is a subtle and effective appetite suppressant. It allows you to eat and enjoy holiday and special foods without overeating. Modifying eating habits and amounts not only keeps the extra weight off, but also enhances longevity and quality health. Wear a few drops of Weighless Aromablend on your neck or throat 2-3 x daily and allow your body to let you know when to eat and stop eating. Weighless Aromablend also calms the mind so it does not over ride your natural appetite. The one ounce bottle will last for months and you will enjoy the way you look and feel.

For more help with keeping weight off, also wear Weight  and Cravings Therapeutic Blends. Weight  helps balance endocrine and blood sugar, while enhancing metabolism. Cravings helps reduce sugar and other cravings, such as salt. Too much of a good thing is.... !

For diet and behaviour modification Slice of Life Diet handbook will help get you into shape. I have clients who lost over 100 pounds in several months using the guidelines in this handy little book. Included are charts of vitamin and mineral content in food. Vegetarian and many menus are available with recipes you can enjoy while losing weight and inches.

Walking and exercise are included in Slice of Life Diet. However, recent research has proven exercise alone won't reduce fat and enough calories to reach your goals. It's a good time to team up with several stress free ways to get the results to tip the scales in your favor.

Cinnamon and Weight Loss

Aromatherapy for Weight, Diabetes and Heart Disease

by Dr. Judy Griffin

 

A recent study* by the USDA research agency at Beltsville, Maryland indicates a water soluble extract from cinnamon contains antioxidants that can reduce health problems from diabetes and heart disease. This cinnamon extraction is available in a nontoxic aromatherapy topical product called Weight. This therapeutic aromablend has been used in hospitals with patients suffering from diabetes, heart conditions and diabetes during pregnancyWeight can be used with medications and supplementation to help normalize blood sugar and bodily functions associated with heart disease and diabetes. Many patients experienced less desire to overeat or eat sugary and high fat foods, resulting in weightloss.

 

Cinnamon has been used by ancient cultures for hundreds and thousands of years to improve cardiovascular health and normalize blood sugar. Mexicans drink a cinnamon tea to promote cardiovascular health and improve circulation. (Mother Nature’s Herbal, Judy Griffin, PhD., p.59) Chinese and Asians use cinnamon to improve circulation, digestion, lower back pain, cramps and bronchial wheezing. (Mother Nature’s Kitchen, Judy Griffin, PhD., pages 71 & 220) Ancient Ayurvedic Indians used cinnamon with other seasonal spices to replace meats in vegetarian dishes. These foods are used to treat a variety of ailments and release serotonin, a relaxing neurochemical in the brain. Africans, Moroccans, and Algerians use cinnamon in a very spicy, hot chile curry to “cool” the cardiovascular system after an initial cleanse of perspiration. (Mother Nature’s Herbal, Judy Griffin, PhD., pages 197-212) 

 

Cinnamon, Cinnamon cassia, sticks contain chromium, a mineral that may help regulate blood sugar. Chromium is deficient in soil in the Western World. The newly discovered antioxidant properties of cinnamon show promise in complementary, self healing therapy, ingested or inhaled. Inhalation reaches the bloodstream quickly, as the oxygen-rich blood cells circulate throughout the bloodstream. Inhalation, as in the Weight aromatherapy product (found atwww.aromahealthtexas.com,) can impact the brain in 1/100th of a second, affecting the neuroendocrine and blood sugar hormones.

 

Whether you inhale or ingest this aromatic spice, it can initiate a self healing process beneficial to you.

Summer Fitness and Weight Loss

Grapefruit, Citrus paradisi, reduces appetite and stimulates fat metabolism and peristalsis.  It is an important essential oil for weight reduction.  Grapefruit also helps reduce inches, making it a perfect choice for summer fitness.  The grapefruit is believed to evolve from a Caribbean fruit, known as the shaddock. Today, grapefruit is grown commercially in the United States, Israel and parts of South America.  The ruby red, or pink variety, is preferred by aromatherapists and perfumers for its excellent, uplifting aroma. Essential oil is machine expressed from the peel of ripe fruit.  The aroma stimulates neurotransmitters resulting in a euphoric antidepressant effect.  It is a great essential oil to use when life is too much, or self doubt overtakes good thoughts and affirmations.  Just open the bottle of grapefruit and let the aroma lift you.

Good Morning Fragrance

In ½ ounce of jojoba oil, add the following essential oils:

                        15 drops Grapefruit, Pink

                          5 drops of Sweet Orange

                        10 drops of Neroli

                          3 drops of Styrax benzoin

            Bottle in dark glass with a tight fitting cap.

Allow to cure overnight, or up to 3 days.  Adjust the blend to “taste”.  Apply a drop to each temple and massage the oil into the hair near the temples.  Apply another 2 drops to the throat or neck, massage gently and enjoy the day.  Refrigerate blend and all the citrus essential oils.  Use the blend and essential oils within 6 months.  The blend will continue to marry over the following 3 weeks.  After completion, adjust the blend adding more of any of the desired essential oils.  Note:  Styrax benzoin has an amber aroma.  It is an excellent “fixative”, or base note for an aroma blend.  It dissolves easily in alcohol, which can be substituted for jojoba oil.  Best to use perfume alcohol, 190 proof.

 

 

 

Grapefruit is an excellent detoxifying essential oil.  The main effect is on the liver, claming irritable moods or angry outbursts.  In the body, grapefruit encourages lymphatic drainage.  It stimulates peristalsis, reducing constipation and sluggish elimination.  In a detoxification program, use it as massage oil and combine it with bath salts.  Grapefruit blends well with other citrus oils, palmarosa, rosewood, ginger and rosemary.

Detoxifying Massage Blend

            In 2 ounces of carrier oil, combine the following essential oils:

                        30 drops of Pink Grapefruit

                          2 drops of Ginger root

                          5 drops of Rockrose

                          5 drops of Lemon or Lemongrass

Bottle in dark glass with a tight fitting screw cap.  Allow to cure 3 hours or overnight.  Massage the limbs, moving towards the heart.  Then massage the back and front of the torso using brisk, circular, clockwise motions.  Apply cool packs to the back if it comforts the recipient.  Refrigerate remaining blend and use within 6 months.

 

 

 

Refreshing Foot Massage: If you enjoy foot massage, you will love using this blend during the hot summer months.  The addition of lime makes this blend a great deodorant.

            In 1 ounce of sesame oil, add the following essential oils:

                        10 drops of Grapefruit

                        20 drops of Lime

                          2 drops of Sandalwood

Bottle in dark glass with a tight fitting screw cap.  Allow to cure for 3 hours or overnight.  Slowly massage the blend onto the bottom of the feet, ankles and top of the feet.  Watch the recipient melt into a blissful relaxed state of mind.  Refrigerate any leftover blend and use within 6 months.

 

 

 

Bath salts are fun to make and even more enjoyable to experience.  Here’s one children will love, big “kids” too!

Fruity Bath Salt Blend: In a 1 quart glass jar with a screw cap, blend 2 cups each of Epsom salts and Dead Sea salts.  These salts are detoxifying for the muscles, joints and skin.  Add the following essential oils to reduce muscle cramps, promote relaxation and a good mood.  Stir and mix well:

                        10 drops of Pink Grapefruit

                        20 drops of Tangerine, Citrus Madurensis

                        10 drops of honey or Honey oil absolute

                          5 drops of Sandalwood

Cap tightly and allow curing for 10 days.  Add a cup of salts to a tub of warm water.  Stir the water with your hand to blend and dissolve the salts.  Soak for 15 to 20 minutes.  Avoid splashing the eyes.  Store leftover salts in a cool, dark place.  Use within 3 months for best results.

 

 

 

Grapefruit also detoxifies cellulite, removes excess fluid, and prevents fluid retention.  It has a tonic effect on the skin and tissues.  Massage this blend onto the skin you’d like to tighten and tone to enhance summer fun.

Cellulite Blend: In 1 ounce of jojoba oil, or double distilled witch hazel, add the following essential oils:

                        10 drops of Grapefruit (Pink grapefruit smells the best)

                        10 drops of Mandarin, Citrus riticulata

                          1 drop of Nutmeg, Myristica fragrance

                          1 drop of Coriander

Bottle in dark glass with a tight fitting cap.  Allow to cure overnight in the refrigerator or a cool, dark place. Briskly massage onto clean, dry skin.  Repeat, rubbing several drops onto the affected area.  Cover with a warm, moist towel.  Repeat daily, if desired.  Refrigerate leftover blend.  Use within 3months.  It is best to make small amounts of this blend.  Cellulite can take weeks to months to remove.  There is a tendency to accumulate cellulite in the same areas.  Use this blend to prevent further accumulation.

Gluten Free Diet

Gluten Free Diet

A gluten free diet has helped many clients with Crohn’s and colitis. Results for many irritable bowel clients and asthmatics have also been noticed. The proteins in gluten are large and difficult to digest for many people. Some people carry 1 or 2 genes for Celiac’s and their symptoms improve with a gluten free diet. Celiac sufferers can experience symptoms at any time of their life, due to unusual stress, as gene expression turns on and off during a lifetime of stressors. When a Crohn’s client does not respond to meds and other therapies, I suggest a gluten free diet. For those who continue to eat gluten foods, there are special enzymes released in the small intestine to help digest glutens. 

I create special blends for Crohn’s and colitis people. However, Allergy blend and Inner Strength blend are essence aroma blends to help balance and promote immune strength. For many people, these are life long foals. A gluten free diet may be necessary to support immune health. Rose Campion Petite fleur helps for those with a genetic condition.

The “cure” always involves personal responsibility and immune balancing therapy.

What will help motivate me?

I am a woman who will be 65 in a few months, due to a heart problem I have been pretty (try absolutely!) sedentary for the past year, giving me a perfect excuse for living off of fast foods, which I always found some excuse to do anyway before the heart problem flared up!
 
My husband and I are both extremely overweight, causing all the problems that go along with this. My personal weight gain does not come from overeating, snacking, eating a gallon of ice cream or a bag of potato chips; through much soul searching I have discovered that I have an actual aversion to cooking.
 
I don’t know what type of blend to turn to for this problem, I just know I have to overcome it and get our eating habits back in control, and this has to begin with me in the kitchen finding a love of preparing food for the two of us.
 
The heart problem was worked on this past month, and after a few more weeks I can slowly begin to find me an exercise program that will ease me out of lying on my couch for a year!
 
There is absolutely no use in exercising thou if you don’t eat properly. I probably can look back at my life and see how this aversion developed, but that doesn’t help take care of where I am at now.
 
Is there an aroma health product that can help me? - Leslee
 
Passion for a love to accomplish a goal and Tigers Jaw Cactus for the motivation.

Weight Control and Your Psyche

Weight Control and Your Psyche

 

Losing and keeping weight within normal limits is more difficult for some people than healing from a major illness. Food has a psychological control for a variety of reasons. Mother’s cooking always tops the list. However, very few kids were actually forced to eat unhealthy foods. If weight is a problem in your adult life, approach weight loss as an adult.

 

Portion control is a key to any diet. It helps to balance the insulin response. When blood sugar is imbalanced, a feeling of gnawing hunger causes overeating and leaves the feeling of not being satisfied. Low stress vegetables, also low in calories, whole grains and bulking agents taken before or after a meal signal the brain to stop eating.

 

Weight is an aromahealthtexas aromatic, topical aid to balance blood sugar and balance the endocrines.

 

Compulsive eating is associates with obsessive compulsive behavior. It is associated with low serotonin levels and/or lack of receptors to produce neuro-chemicals to quiet desires. Stress eating is often described as a reason for non-stop eating. Cravings is an aromahealthtexas aid for reducing compulsive eating. Knotted Marjoram Petite Fleur Essence aids obsessive compulsive behavior.

 

Stress also affects thyroid/adrenal response. Lower metabolism reduces proper digestion, energy and may result in weight gain. Toxic Thyroid is an aromahealthtexas topical product to protect thyroid function and lessen the effect of pollutants that reduce proper function. Those who prefer sweets have a propensity to thyroid stress.

 

Those who prefer fats, alcohol and creamy foods have an endocrine imbalance that involves the pituitary. This is a master endocrine gland in the brain, lodged behind the nose. Cherokee Rose is a Petite Fleur Essence antique rose that promotes endocrine balance affecting the pituitary and subsequently the liver functions involving cholesterol and essential fatty acids and phosphatydlcholine to produce sufficient neuro-chemicals.

 

Emotions are neuro-chemicals produced in the limbic brain. They limbic brain stores memories and data about everything you have learned. These memories are associated with natural scent. Aromatherapy, from distilled organically grown aromatic plants, has the ability to affect brain chemistry in 1/100th of a second. Nothing affects us so quickly.

 

Essential oils and flower essences support the psychological demands of the personality. The stress behind overeating and choosing the wrong foods must be successfully addressed. Having a success consciousness about everything you do supports healthy weight loss and management.

 

Self Image aromahealthtexas supports self improvement and a deep feeling of self satisfaction in everything you achieve. 

 

Pink Rose and Country Marilou antique roses help us to think thin and release uncomfortable feelings about the body.

 

Various forms of abuse during childhood and as an adult can also lead to weight gain that is very hard to control. Underlying anger is soothed by the Abate Anger aromahealthtexas blend. Japanese Magnolia Petite Fleur Essence releases feelings of being victimized.

 

There are many healthy diet plans to support weight loss and maintenance. There are over 150 Aromahealthtexas Blends and Petite Fleur Essences to support psychological triggers and promote peace of mind. Books include Slice of Life Nutrition and Diet Handbook, How to Master Special Diets and Flowers that Heal.
