Western medicine can take a back seat for a moment here. When it comes to truly owning your health and vitality, let’s remember that your plant allies are the ultimate (and ancient) healers.

Going as far back as the age of Egyptians (yes, that’s B.C my friends,) we have been intuitively drawn to the use of essential oils as a natural and earth centred remedy. Whether it be for medicinal properties, aromatics or some simple beauty techniques, oils have been tried, tested and true since long before any modern day wellness trend.

Here’s a few must haves to get your collection started.

Peppermint - Most well known for aiding headache symptoms, this versatile oil has more than just a couple tricks up its sleeve. Use this oil either topically or internally when dealing with digestive issues, inflammation or muscle pain. The scent itself is ultra energizing and adds a nice cooling touch!

Arnica - Practically known as the mother of all oils. Every mother with an adventurous toddler likely has some of this stored somewhere in the medicine cabinet. Known for its ability to quickly reduce bruising and pain, Arnica offers a fast track healing for sprains, pulls, muscle aches and several other injuries.

Bergamot - Not only does it smell ahhh-mazing, the scent will instantly bring you from your funkiest of funks to some higher elevation in a jif! Bergamot is the most delicate of the citrus plants and offers up a sweet, uplifting and rejuvenating essence. Use this bad boy when you’re feeling stressed or lethargic and feel instantly renewed in both mind and body.

Three steps to creating a ritual with your essential oils...

Step 1: Make the space sacred.

The first step to making even the most mundane feel ceremonious? Create the space. It doesn’t have to be complicated—a few candles, maybe an altar, and a cup of tea set out in your favourite room of the house will do. Setting the scene is the first step to feeling safe and held enough to drop into your innermost self.

2. Set an intention.

Intention is so powerful! Energy will always flow where your attention goes—which is exactly why having a clear intention is a vital aspect of ritual. Once you’ve set the space and grounded into it, choose an intention that you’d like to work with. You can even infuse your oils into your intention in a way that feels sacred to you. For example, if your intention is to open your heart to more love, you may choose to incorporate your rose oil into your ritual.

Check out this blog and learn more about how to infuse essential oils into your personal daily rituals.

3. Sing, meditate, dance, celebrate!

Now that you have your space set and your intention clear, it’s time to bring it all to life through the power of your offering!

There are a number of ways you can bring forth your intention in the way of ritual—you may choose to write out your feelings and burn them in a ceremonious way.

Maybe you choose to dance and sing mantra and celebrate what you’re calling in! Or perhaps you simply sit and breathe—allowing yourself to feel, cry, let go or laugh off any emotion that arises. Whatever it may be, the choice is yours and yours alone. Empower yourself through the art of ritual.

Check out our podcast, Essentials of Wellbeing where we talk about spirituality and wellbeing as a science and a way of life. We dive into earth based practices and how to infuse the elements into our daily lives.

Hey there! I’m Juan Halico and it’s been my soul’s highest mission to recover our most basic natural healing abilities since 2002.

Having spent the first half of my life in the hustle and bustle of advertising, I certainly wasn’t always one to “listen to my body.” Half the time, I was hopped up on lorazepam to deal with my crippling anxiety and a Zoloft cocktail was a Friday night regular for me.

It wasn’t until I had a nasty wake up call in 1999 when I was called to visit the Peruvian jungle and sit with plant medicine. The healing I experienced was immense and profound. In that defining moment of my life, I felt the pull to explore plant medicine, holistic remedies and the art of essential oils as a modern day healing modality.

Through my obsessive research and obscene curiosity, I’ve experimented now with thousands of different blends, using my body as my temple and my playground for natural healing. As my healing progressed, my vision for service became more clear, and in 2002 Essential Life was born!

It’s my dream and honour to help people heal and to inspire each person that crosses my path through the art of essential oils.

Whether you’re looking for just the right blend to treat your pain, or simply looking to oils as a pathway to better health, I am here for you! I look forward to meeting you and working together.

Mountaintops, Fir trees and fresh air! These are likely just a few things that come to mind when you think of your ideal remedy.
