Improve Your Reiki Treatment Experience With Aromatherapy

Reiki and aromatherapy essential oils go hand in hand in a variety of ways. Reiki's entire function is to restore equilibrium to the body. The body has seven chakras or energy centers; think of them as spinning vortexes, or the body's own turbochargers. The body's energy is carried along the meridians, Nadi channels, and the aura that surrounds us, in addition to the chakras.

Aromatherapy oils are good for relaxing the mind and adding calmness to an environment. For example, if you have a sinus infection, eucalyptus combined with Reiki works well to restore equilibrium to the body.

Aromatherapy oils can be used in a variety of ways during Reiki sessions, including rubbing them into the palms of the hands, using scented burners, or spraying them near you.

What is aromatherapy, and how does it help Reiki practitioners?

Essential oils have potent scents that can transport us from the present to the past, reawakening our primitive instincts and connecting us to pivotal points of our lives. Aromatherapy is the name for this.

Before you begin your Reiki session, scent a variety of oils and choose one that appeals to you because it reminds you of a past pleasurable experience or a childhood memory, in order to enhance your Reiki treatment experience with even more enjoyment and relaxation.

A Reiki session with essential oils can be an extremely soothing experience. Many individuals become so comfortable that they go into a near-sleeplike state and must be softly awakened after the session is over.

To comprehend the relationship between Reiki and Aromatherapy, we must first understand that the chakras are the body's way of controlling organ activity and maintaining a stable immune system.

Your immune system would be less efficient if your chakras are out of harmony, and you will be more vulnerable to illness and disease.

Each chakra has its own color and frequency of vibration.

What is the meaning of vibration frequency?

To begin with, the body is made up of molecules; we may seem to be solid, but we are only molecules that vibrate continuously, producing various frequencies in the body. The normal human body vibrates at a frequency of 62 to 75 MHz; but, if you are sick, the vibrational frequency will most likely be smaller than 62 MHz. You will feel happier and stronger as you’re raising your vibrational frequency When you run at a higher vibration you strengthen your bond to source energy.

Aromatherapy oils, like Reiki, can relax the chakras to increase mental and physical well-being. By adding the appropriate essential oils to the chakra regions, aromatherapy oils can act in tandem with conventional Reiki treatments.

Essential oil scents can activate the amygdala region of the brain in a variety of ways; such scents and smells can improve your mood and mental well-being, which has a positive impact on your physical well-being.

Anxiety is caused by a Variety of Factors

A traumatic past

If, as a child, you have been abused, been a part of some kind of violence, or lost a loved one, this can trigger powerful imbalances and cause you to feel anxious.

Toxic relationships

If you're in an unhealthy relationship, you're more likely to devote more of your resources to one end than the other.

Stress that is harmful to one's well being and has a negative impact on one's life

While positive pressure can help us develop, we frequently encounter and fight negative pressure. One of the most common causes of anxiety is this.

Genetic Arrangements

The influence of our genetic code, which is the base of our energetic and moral self, is always underestimated. As a result, if your family has a legacy of trauma, you might have inherited some of their trauma.

This is by no means an exhaustive list, but it will help you figure out what you should do next. Remember that figuring out what's triggering a problem is the first step in resolving it; otherwise, you won't be able to heal or benefit from the experience.

Once you've pinpointed the cause (or mixture of sources) of your aches and pains, it's time to learn more about how essential oils can help you feel stronger.

What are the Benefits of Using Essential Oils?

When used as a medicinal tool, aromatherapy has a strong impact on the areas of the brain that control our anxiety, stress, depression, and terror. Although, even more importantly, each aromatherapy scent has its own resonance, which our energetic bodies can sense.

The Resonance Correction Effect aids in the restoration of your energetic system's proper vibration so that it can carry out its functions, and choosing the right scent for the right ailment is critical to fixing the problem.

Essential oils can be administered in one of two ways:

• Contact on the skin, directly
• Via the nose, inhaled

Here are the steps to take to ensure that using essential oils does not cause you harm:

• Examine the essential oils and see if any of them contain any additives to which you are allergic.
• If you're going to put it on your skin, make sure it's completely clean first.
• You don't want to put too much strain on your energetic system, so take it easy!

Here's what you can do while you're inhaling from your nose:

• Begin by doing some breathing exercises to prepare the body. When you breathe in and out, make sure you're doing it from your nose.
• Inhale the essential oil exactly as directed.
• Slowly and quietly exhale while gently exhaling the mineral oil

While this can seem to be a straightforward job, you'd be shocked by how many people get it wrong! You may be itching to try essential oils right now, so here's a list of four distinct scents to try with a variety of ailments. Put them to the test and see how well they do.

Lavender

Lavender-scented essential oils are by far the most widely used. It's been around for decades, and it was even used as a kind of currency in some countries!

Using lavender to soothe the soul when you're feeling down, lonely, or exhausted. Almost suddenly, you will experience a noticeable decrease in anxiety. If you use it as lavender oil or incense, you can get the desired effect.

To guarantee that I get a full night's sleep, I prefer to use lavender right before bed. Anyone who has ever struggled to fall asleep after a long day knows how tough it can be, but lavender oil and incense can be immensely helpful in this respect.

Also, this scented oil works wonders for the fifth chakra (the throat chakra), which is represented by the colors blue or turquoise and can create issues with communication and self-expression if it is blocked.

The throat, esophagus, shoulders, spine, and limbs are all represented by the fifth chakra. A blocked fifth chakra will make you afraid of the world and set you on a path of isolation from life and others, while an unblocked and healthy throat chakra will make it possible to express yourself and engage with others.

You can find this stuff on the internet, just make sure you do your research and make sure you're buying lavender from a reliable source. Otherwise, look for it at a local aromatherapy pharmacy.

Sandalwood

It will influence the ability to read people correctly if the third eye chakra gets blocked or unbalanced. The opportunity to see what is conceivable is provided by the third eye.

It allows you to have aspirations that can lead to personal accomplishment. The third eye is your intuition which plays a vital part in keeping you safe. It also allows you the power to see beyond malicious and deceptive people who might want to hurt you.

This oil promotes self-awareness as well as the opportunity to tap into the surroundings.

Inability to focus, trouble imagining a bright future, and narrow-mindedness are all signs that the third eye is blocked or unbalanced.

Vetiver

Vetiver essential oil is also known as "calming" essential oil. When you're having the onset of a panic attack or a traumatic situation, it's best to use it. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Vetiver is used to cool a 'hot' mind, and it has a similar effect in Ayurvedic medicine, where Vetiver is swallowed to alleviate stomach pain.

It's now available as an extract, an oil, and a perfume on the market. It has a deep earthy fragrance that can take you back in time. Since it's difficult to know whether you've eaten or added it to your skin enough, I consider using the scent on this one.

Inhalation, on the other hand, has almost instantaneous effects. Vetiver can not be used in large amounts so the body and energetic system may become addicted to it.

Vetiver is available for purchase online or at a local new age pharmacy. It's also possible that your local South Asian Market would have it! If you purchase the whole plant, make sure you are not allergic to it. The oil and extract may appeal to you, but the plant itself may not.

Bergamot

The bergamot orange, or Citrus bergamia, is a fragrant citrus fruit that is the size of an orange and has a yellow or green tint similar to a lime-based on ripeness.

It's widely available as a cooking product in areas of the Mediterranean. This means you'll probably be able to find it at your nearest Mediterranean grocer!

If you check in your own Southeast Asian store, you may be able to find it as well. If you don't want to buy the entire fruit, you can buy the extract and oil online.

If you do decide to purchase the fruit, apply cold compression to get the oil from the skin. It works as a relaxant to help people with chronic anxiety and stress. This falls lower on the energetic system scale since it is more acidic in nature.

To put it another way, using it on a regular basis will not overexpose you to its scent, and its effectiveness will not deteriorate over time. Bergamot Oil is a perfect choice if you're often stressed or need a refresher every once in a while.

Patchouli

A balanced root chakra will allow you to remain grounded, allowing you to experience peace, stillness, prosperity, physical wellbeing, a sense of protection and personal security, a sense of belonging, and the desire to live in the moment mindfulness.

If the root chakra is unbalanced or blocked, your physical body gets trapped in the present rather than being in the moment on a constant path, causing anxiety and self-loathing as well as hate and rage towards your own body. Other issues may involve a poor relationship with money and dependence on outside forces rather than being self-sovereign.

The root chakra can be brought back into harmony using Reiki and Patchouli, giving you a sense of personal sovereignty and a grounded attitude to life and those around you.

Frankincense

This is an oil that used to be highly sought after by royalty. It is now widely available commercially, but that does not alter the fact that it has a significant effect.

Frankincense oil is thought to alleviate physical discomforts such as tension headaches, digestive issues, and sore shoulders and spine. It's also a powerful antidepressant that will make you feel good for days after you've taken it.

Since this oil gets more involved with each usage (and you don't want to use it too much), use it sparingly. I recommend using this on the skin and it looks healthier and the flavor can be unpleasant for certain people.

There are also other essential oils that can be used, but these are the ones that are most closely associated with anxiety and can be used in conjunction with your Reiki practice. I recommend experimenting with it to see what fits better for you since different energetic systems respond differently to different stimuli.
