Why I reach for Frankincense
In the past whenever I felt stressed I would try to think my way back to being calm. I started using Frankincense and I discovered that it works differently. First thing I noticed was the aroma. It’s deep and it grounds you. I would notice that I could breathe deeper and slower. My nervous system didn’t feel so nervous. I could literally feel the tension lift off of me. Amazing. So I’m reaching for it now because I feel overwhelmed with my to do list. It helps me pull my thoughts together. I appreciate that it doesn’t energize me like that fake caffeine energy does. And it also doesn’t sedate me. It just gives me some space to be me. I like that. I blend it in a roller bottle with jojoba oil. I usually roll it on my arms and neck and rub it in. Sometimes I put it on my feet. It’s so nice. Do you use Frankincense? I’d love to hear when you reach for it most.
