| 02/15/2017Aromatherapy and yoga work wonders to calm the mind. The two tools are among many used by alternative healthcare practitioners seeking healthy options for their patients. If you work a high-stress job or have experienced some obstacles in your life, you’ll find rolling out a yoga mat and getting into different poses very freeing. You’ll also learn how something as simple as scent enhances your experience, eases tension, improves concentration, and even soothes maladies such as stomach upset and headache tension.
Aromatherapy to Calm the Mind
A regular yoga practice takes patience. As a newbie, it can be difficult to ease into positions right away. Through staunch determination, however, you’ll let go of the need of doing poses perfectly. Instead, you’ll ease into your practice, priding yourself for having the courage to try something new.
When cleaning your yoga mat, you can use a simple spray that you create with essential oils at home. Tea tree, lavender, lemon, grapefruit, and geranium are all scents you can work with easily. You’ll want to use distilled water and witch hazel to create your spray and shake it vigorously before spraying your mat with it. This ensures that all the ingredients combine together.
Bioesse Tech’s Aromatherapy Inhalation Patches enhance your yoga practice. Worn discreetly, they can be taken to yoga classes outside your home so you can continue to benefit from their uplifting and soothing scents. One patch lasts up to 8 hours, meaning you can also wear one to work or school as part of your self-care routine.
There are a number of options to choose from including Lavender, Healthy Me, Sweet Dreams, Mandarin, Peppermint, Spearmint, and Blank Patches that you fill yourself. If you have an essential oil blend that works well for you, you can use our technology to take it with you wherever you go without needing to apply oil directly to your skin.
