Balanced Life

Balancing all the areas of our lives can sometimes feel overwhelming, so let’s look at at the ways the oil for this month can help keep us grounded and strong, in our relationships with Allah Most High our children our loved ones and in our career  In sha Allah.

Rooted And Grounded

So why are oils from trees so significant in supporting us and firmly rooting and grounding our physical and emotional wellbeing?

Trees live in the present moment. They are not in a hurry, they are stable, they are deep-rooted in the earth, but their branches extend high up to the sky.

Each tree and plant has its own unique personality, which can be found in its natural chemical makeup. The primary chemical constituents of a tree oil are monoterpenes, which are very restoring in nature.

Start Your Day

After you wake up, apply one to two drops of doTERRA Balance to the bottom of your feet. This will help promote focus but also evoke feelings of calmness and tranquillity throughout the day. Repeat again in the evening.

Balance Blend helps us to:

• • Be focussed with Osmanthus
  • Stay in control with Blue Tansyflower

Relationships

When we have deep roots firmly fixed in our deen, and the sunnah of our beloved Rasool saw, our branches will extend upwards and in every direction, touching all those we love and who are in our care with the beautiful fruits of our good works.  When we are grounded and rooted, we can worship Allah and emulate His messenger saw in a Balanced state of mind, bringing all that is good in our daily actions and words and reaching out to Allah Most High, through dhikr and prayer. Balance oil really reminds us to have soft energy and reconnect to the Truth.

Balance Blend helps us to:

• • Be gentle with Ho wood leaf
  • Connect to our Inner Light and Truth with Frankincense

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was brought a dish with unripe dates on it. He said: The parable of a goodly word is that of a goodly tree, whose root is firmly fixed, and its branches (reach) to the sky (14:24 & 25)

As we breathe in the scent of an essential oil, it triggers specific reactions physiological and emotional reactions based on our own individual needs and overall health. This is why aromatic use is such a big part of mood management and wellness.
