Emotional Well-Being & Balance with Citrus Oils

​

​

Picture
 
Citrus essential oils can be effective physiologically, where they work on the actual physical condition, but also psychologically, where they work with the sense of smell and the effect that it has on the mind.  All of the commonly obtainable citrus fruit oils are used in the practice aromatherapy. Citrus scents are considered “invigorating” or “soothing” and can be utilized for symptoms of stress and depression.
​
​


There are various degrees of studies that demonstrate how essential oils can positively affect mood and the awareness of well-being, generating either uplifting or calming effects: grapefruit essential oil, for example, works to combat depression, and sweet orange is often referred to as the “smiley oil”.  I can honestly say today as a Certified Holistic Health Practitioner that the value and quality of life citrus essential oils have helped me to obtain and usher in to relieve stress and self-doubt is priceless.
