The Energy of Essential Oils‏

Change your vibrations instantly - essential oils for holistic living

It’s been a long journey for me with various health issues, starting back from a child with strange things like having chicken pox twice when you are only supposed to get it once, mystery swellings each year under my ears, shingles at age 15, to severe hyperglycemia as a teen. Things kept accumulating… a blood clot in my head, infertility, depression, anxiety, autoimmune disease and my liver nearly shutting down.

It’s a journey – we all have journeys – some are more physical and others more emotional or trauma based, but we all have to navigate the challenges.

What I discovered along the way were a series of aha moments and insights, like peeling an onion, and it has been such an incredible gift! It opened up a whole new world to me. With each new thing I’d dive into the research and gain new insights and ways of looking at things, new questions to ask my doctors, new tests to ask for, new ways of eating, new approaches and ways of thought. I discovered and experienced almost every modality out there from chiropractic, to acupuncture, to homeopathy, to Mayan massage, etc. I started to find hope and my own power to orchestrate my health. But it was also overwhelming, conflicting, confusing and relied heavily on constantly seeing practitioners and spending an awful lot of money and time. Then one day a friend introduced me to doTERRA Essential Oils as an effective way to help my health and they honestly changed my day-to-day life – it was like someone handed me a box of little magic power tools and guess what – I can use them myself – it wasn’t dependent on a once-a-week appointment – I had access to them at any time and I could instantly change how I was feeling. Not only that, I also had something I could use when my family needed it. Essential oils didn’t replace going to see practitioners or solve everything, but they did help so much and put the power back in my hands - they are my little bottles of empowerment there to support at any moment! Later in life when I began to study Energy Medicine I realized the full energetic effect the essential oils have on us and how much of a profound impact they can have on our energy bodies, our health and our wellbeing.

Everything is energy from physical things - like our bodies, to a rock or a table, to our thoughts and emotions.

Everything vibrates at a specific frequency. As one of my teachers, Cyndi Dale says, ‘energy is information that moves’ (1) (www.cyndidale.com) In living things it is called life-force energy, chi, prana or many other names. We are energy, it is believed that we are 99% subtle energy (that which we cannot measure) – a collection of molecules and sub-atomic particles. Einstein too said that ‘everything is energy’, which is exactly what it all breaks down to even if we can’t see it all. Science can only measure things to the abilities of our current instruments, but it is getting better all the time and things like Kirlian photography can now photograph our auras. Quantum physics is able to measure the effects of quantum entanglement. Energy is expressed as electromagnetic frequencies. We only see a very small portion of the light and sound spectrum. Science is only just catching up to what the shamans, mystics and other indigenous medicine people have known for years.

So much of our state of wellbeing is determined by the conditions of our environments, and that includes the environment within our bodies and energy fields. Researchers such as Royal Rife (1888 to 1971) and Edward Rosenow (1875 to 1966) looked at the effect on organisms of changing vibrational frequencies around them, thereby showing the importance of the environment in determining the existence and vitality of microbes. Royal Rife also showed that every cell, tissue and organ has its own vibratory resonance. (2) If you apply this to our bodies and energy fields you ultimately want to keep them as clear, clean and healthy as possible. The higher our vibrations and frequencies are, the higher and less dense our energy is, and the freer everything is to move around and regenerate and the happier we are. A positive thought increases our vibration by 10 MHz. A negative thought decreases it by 12 MHz. (3) Dr David R. Hawkins (www.veritaspub.com) calculated the frequencies of different emotions and placed them on an energy scale called the Map of Consciousness. (4) The scale shows low emotions such as shame being 30 on the scale, fear 100-125, and higher emotions such as courage 200-250, love 500, gratitude, 500, joy 540-600, peace 600-700 and enlightenment 700-1000. 5 This doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t ever have lower emotions – that’s not part of the human experience – but we need to express, process and release our emotions in a healthy way so that we aren’t staying in those low emotions and can go back to being in the higher vibrations.

What does all this have to do with the energy of Essential Oils?

Well, essential oils have been measured as having the highest frequency of any natural things. Researcher Bruce Taino (www.taino.com) invented a machine to measure the bio-electrical frequencies of plant nutrients and essential oils. This showed that foods with low nutrients such as processed and canned foods had a frequency of 0 MHz whereas fresh produce could be measured up to 15 MHz. Dried herbs measured between 12 to 22 MHz and fresh herbs at 20 to 27 MHz. Now, here’s the amazing part – essential oils started at 52 Mhz with Basil and went all the way up to a whopping 302 MHz with Rose vibrating at the level of unconditional love. (6) Of course, these figures will vary depending on the quality of the food and the essential oils tested, as well as the sensitivity of the equipment but it does put the frequency of foods and essential oils into perspective. Taino further established that a healthy human body vibrates between 62 and 68 MHz and that illness begins below this. Our bodies naturally want to be in a harmonious, balanced state called homeostasis, but stress, emotions and illness can throw us out of balance. Essential Oils have coherent frequencies which can help bring our bodies back into a state of balance. Through the laws of resonance including the principle of entrainment the substance with the higher vibration will raise that of the lower vibration. Additionally, essential oils do not resonate with the toxins in our body or negative emotions and this helps to release them to be processed. (7)

The way the frequencies of essential oils work is fascinating, but let’s put science aside for a moment. When it comes to reading and understanding the energy of essential oils don’t forget about your intuition. There is so much value in researching which oil to use for each circumstance and following advice, but one of my favorite ways to select essential oils is through my intuition. Our energy and intuition instinctively know which oils are right for us at a given moment if we just learn to listen. It takes practice and trust to listen but the more we do it the easier it gets, and the best part is that if we don’t get it right, no harm done – just try another! When I work with animals it never ceases to amaze me how instinctively they respond to each oil telling me exactly which ones they need. This has been studied through zoo pharmacognosy and I get to watch it happen each time! So next time you go to use an essential oil see which oil jumps out at you – hold it close to you and see how it makes you feel, does your energy go up or down, how does it make you feel? When I work with applied kinesiology, I will muscle test the oils to see how someone responds to it. A very simple way to try this is to first not hold anything, close your eyes and say something you know to be true – I always like to simply say, “my name is Nicole” and then see if your body falls forwards or backwards – this is your truth or ‘yes’. Then hold the bottle of oil and see which way your body moves. This is a great way to start intuitively using your oils and also to practice listening more to your intuition.

Please always make sure you are using certified therapeutic grade essential oils to ensure they are free of toxins and have their purest frequencies. Remember too that our bodies recognize pure essential oils like food, which means they metabolize them quickly, so use them as often as you feel you need but within reason and following recommended uses. I recommend doTERRA Essential Oils and I would be honored if you chose to join my essential oil family. For more information please go here.

So for an instant, easy way to help raise your own vibrations grab a bottle of your favorite essential oil and nourish yourself. You will be so grateful and you’ll be nudging yourself towards 500 or higher on Hawkins energy scale!
