The calming power of sweet orange essential oil



My personal experience with the powers of orange essential oil: After a relaxing week at a wellness spa in Hotel Kurhaus training on herbal wellness with 30 colleagues from the USA in a small village nestled in the foothills of the Swiss Alps in Walzenhausen, Switzerland, we had a long stressful flight to Boston, Mass.  Once we arrived in the Boston area we had to circle the airport for almost an hour.  We were one of the last flights they allowed in due to a severe ice storm.  After we slid into a stop on the runway we entered the airport terminal.  Fatique and stress took a toll on me and I had blurred vision, nausea and the entire floor of the airport was rocking as though I was on a ship in the high seas in the perfect storm.  It was the quick thinking on the part of my traveling companions, my sister Susie and friend Val, that saved the day.  We had gotten essential oils from our herbal wellness company.  Sifting through their bags they found and cracked open a fresh bottle of orange essential oil and stuck it under my nose and made me inhale the oils right from the bottle.  Within seconds my panic, stress, blurred vision and sea sickness disappeared - true story!  Sweet orange oil provides a soothing and refreshing effect on your mind and soul, and reduces restlessness and tension as well as many other amazing uses.

Humor Therapy/Laughter Yoga ~ Laughter, the best natural medicine!

Image
There is truth in the saying "laughter is the best medicine". They say that children laugh about 400 times a day, adults only about 15 times a day.  Of course as an adult we have  many trials and tribulations and situations that aren't so funny (and nothing to laugh about) but that is even more reason to bring laughter into your life. Benefits of laughter: *Stimulates physical healing; *Relaxes  your whole body; *Boost immunity; *Lowers stress hormone; *Decreases pain; *Helps with circulation, good for the heart; *Eases anxiety and fear; *Relieves stress and alters your mood; *Strengthens relationships; and more .......Laughter is strong natural medicine for your body & mind.... Truthfully speaking I personally couldn't have gotten this far in life without a good sense of humor.  Of course I have taught my three sons that life is to be taken seriously but to also have a good sense of humor. (Lucky for them they inherited this from both of his parent

Islip Art Gallery at Brookwood Hall Mansion-A must see!

Image
One of my  favorite art galleries to visit is the Islip Art Museum located on 50 Irish Lane in East Islip, New York.  The location is one of the many reasons why I am drawn to this art museum in addition to the incredible art exhibits.  The art gallery is located in a section of a historical mansion called, “Brookwood Hall.”  This landmark 41 room mansion is full of history. That alone makes the trip to the gallery even more appealing.  It was built in 1903 by a very rich businessman from New York City that wanted a getaway for his family.  Over the years it changed ownership several times and was even an orphanage for children.  In 1967 it was sold to the town of Islip for only $385,000.00. The building is also the setting for municipal offices as well as the art gallery.  From the large windows within the gallery, you look out to a lake and large grounds that families can enjoy a picnic and tour the estate.  (Islip.org)           According to Islip Art Museum websit
