Aromas
to Heal a Broken Heart
by Francoise Rapp |
Too often people write
off break-ups as just
another page to turn in
the book of life. There
is some truth in that,
but break-ups should be
taken a bit more
seriously. After all,
this is the end of a
relationship. And this
loss can be as painful
as losing a loved one in
death. To heal it takes
time, self-care, and
conscious processing of
your emotions. It is
vital that you allow
this healing process to
occur, and take
advantage of the
situation to treat
yourself with gentleness
and nurturing.
Here are some other
things to keep in mind
during this
transformative time:
· Avoid any big
decisions.
· Go into the pain and
the feelings. There is
no way out but
to get through it...and
you will!
· Take long
aromatherapy baths with
appropriate holistic
blends. See recipes
below.
· Cry when you need to.
Don't let others tell
you to just
get over it.
· Be VERY selfish.
· Surround yourself
with positive and happy
people.
· Dare to ask for a lot
of hugs.
· Get a dog or cat, or
cuddle with the ones you
have.
· Write really awful,
bitchy, letters to your
ex. Write
everything you would
love to say. Burn them
in the sink.
Run the water to make it
go away.
· Love yourself. Look
in the mirror as often
as you can and
say wonderful things
about yourself aloud.
· Write your way
through the feelings.
· Connect with other
people who understand
and can relate: friends, counselors,
message boards on
websites, etc.
· Have a healthy
lifestyle: eat well,
exercise (at least get
some fresh air on the
beach, at the park,
etc.).
· Nourish your soul
with beauty: watch
movies, read poetry, go to museums.
· Meditate.
· Stay alone and
appreciate the
tranquility of your
aloneness.
There's no rule for how
long the pain of a
heartbreak will last. It
may take weeks, months
or even years. But using
the following special
aromatherapy blend and
ritual will soothe your
heart, nurture your
wounded soul, and
envelop you in comfort.
I recommend following
this bath ritual every
night until you feel the
pain has faded.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your Daily Bath Ritual
to Ease Your Broken
Heart
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Prepare your
aromatherapy blend by
adding the following
essential oils to a
10-oz bottle and filling
with organic vegetable
oil:
· 4 drops Rose
Essential Oil
· 15 drops Sandalwood
Oil
· 9 drops Lavender Oil
---------------------
Order what you need to
create the blend
yourself:

---------------------
Run some warm water for
your bath and add 10
drops of your aromatic
blend. Light some
candles and turn off the
lights. Close your eyes
and place your hands on
your heart. Visualize
yourself filled and
surrounded by a pink
color. Take a few deep
breaths. Feel the color
soothing your being. Say
aloud, "I am love
myself." Take a few
deep breaths again. Soak
for at least 15 minutes.
After you get out of the
bath, pour a few drops
of the aromatherapy
blend into the palms of
your hands and anoint
your heart chakra (the
seat of love: healing,
grieving, acceptance),
and the third eye
(integrating,
detachment, connection
with your Higher Self).
In Good Health,
