This girl has been waging a one person battle against sagging skin. You don't even have to be older to have it... no fair. Sometimes at 20 the skin around the knee begins to sag somewhat.wrecking the eye view between the thigh and the calf. Thankfully there are leggings that can be worn all year round, which give a glimpse of the shape of the leg if not the skin itself.
There are those who believe that phytodyanmic and botanical products can lift sagging skin on the body and face so it could be worth a try. Won't happen over night. On another disappointing note, excerise just can't tighten these little flaws. So what exactly is sagging, when its sagging?
The answer is elastin. Elastin is a protein which gives skin its elasticity, or its "bounce back," after being stretched or maniuplated. It tends to diminish as the body ages. Sadly there really isn't anything that can reliably restore elastin. Aromatherapists though believe that oil of primrose can help address or at least slow the deterioration of elastin with evening primrose oil.
Evening primrose oil is express from the seeds of evening primrose and is high in GLA or gamma-linoleic acid which improves cell structure and stregnthens the elasticity of the skin. It also contracts blood vessels.
A mix of essential oils such as cypress and lemon and blended with evening primrose oil, might be a good combination to try to see if it impedes further elastin loss and rebuilds the skin. Visit http://www.omstonearomas.com/ to view products and blends.

Hidden Hazards of Aromatherapy: Never give this oil to a baby!
Not all essential oils are created equal. Not all people are created equal either. Internet sources, books and health food store personnel can give you general information regarding essential oils, it makes good sense to consult with an educated, certified professional member of NAHA (National Association of Holistic Aromatherapists (http://www.naha.org/) before purchasing your essential oils and products. NAHA sets the gold standard for education.
Clinical or master aromatherapists who have earned certification through a NAHA approved curriculum complete a level one class of 30 -40 hours. Voting members of NAHA have completed approximately 300 hours of training including case studies, oil analysis and a white paper. This training includes contraindications to the use specific oils that are generally agreed upon.
Peppermint Mentha x piperita is a very popular essential oil. It is used to reduce nausea and tension headache. It is refreshing and stimulating and recommended for Raynaud's disease, travel sickness and stomach upsets. It can also be used in combination with grapefruit and eucalyptus in a rub for sore muscles. In high concentrations it can burn and should not be applied to open wounds. It is used for colds and flus and in over the counter preparations.
Peppermint, should never given to an infant or small child, or used around the child's facial region or nose due to the risk of spasms and respiratory arrest. Avoid use in children eight years old and younger and for children older than eight follow recommended usage amounts.

Phyting Fat with Aromatherapy
Think it can't be done? Well it can. Get those boxing gloves out and get ready to "phyte" fat by using aromatherapy to suppress your appetite.
Just let us know and we can create an inhaler which features spearmint as its main ingredient. Inhale and feel the craving slip away. Its truly magic. However, there's always a little trick to magic. In this case you must use use the inhaler when you begin to feel a craving.
The way this works is simple. It is thought that the chemical constituents of the essences can travel through the olefactory bulb directly to the hypothalamus which is our body's "controller." The hypothalamus tries to maintain equilibrium all day. The chemicals in spearmint will reach the part of the brain which is responsible for appetite and hunger. The spearmint will signal to the brain, that everything is under control. You don't really need that ice cream cone.

W**f My Dog Says! and Lavender Quiets Her Down.
Our coddled dog children deserve to enjoy the benefits of aromatherapy. After all, we do why shouldn't they? Well, there are plenty of reasons why direct application of essential oils on dogs is not in their best interest.
Dogs have thin skin that may not absorb oils well. They can also be allergic to oils and if they are pregnant it is advisable not to use any oils on them. Sort of unfortunate news especially when one's canine baby is anxious, doesn't like thunder storms and chews the furniture and anything else when left alone and uncrated.
So what's a devoted dog mommy or daddy to do when their precious hairy son or daughter is woofing for relief? Yes, there are anti-anxiety drugs for parents who believe their dogs may need them, however there are still efficient ways for canines to relax with aromatherapy.
The answer is lavender and the method of use is diffusion. Lavender is generally considered safe for dogs (if you have any questions, check with your vet). You may diffuse lavender during the day or evening. Lavender's fresh smell will also disguise some doggy odors as well. The drawback to this diffusion is that you constantly need to be on top of that diffuser ensuring it has it enough lavender. We suggest using an OmBone from http://www.omstonearomas.com/ or email omstonearomas@yahoo.com for special orders. This terra cotta inexpensive "bone" is actually a personal diffuser that is designed to be attached to your dog's collar. Simply infuse it with a drop or two of lavender and your dog will stay calm for days. The "bone" can be personalized with your dog's name, breed, astrological sign, mantra or a cool symbol. Your choice. It can also be washed when needed.
So not only will your canine child feel cool, calm and collected, he or she will also look cool when they show off their their attractive OmBone personal diffuser.

Facial Rejuvenation with Essential Oils Part 3
The texture of the skin can be a key give away to age. Youthful skin is smooth with tight pores, even if it is dotted by acne. Mature skin is characterized by the beginning of wrinkles, crows feet around the eyes and scar tissue. The appearance of texture of the skin can also be improved upon by brightening the skin tone.
Any topical application alone (including essential oils) are not enough to tighten sagging skin, however with continued use, they may be able to improve the way it looks.
Old scars, even minor scars can be aging. Here is a formula designed to address scar tissue:
1 ounce rose hip oil
3 drops vitamin e
4 drops helichrysum (addresses scars)
6 drops Neroli (addresses scars and wrinkles)
5 drops Patchouli (aging skin, scars, wrinkles and sagging).
Apply at night after cleansing and toning. Follow with moisturizer

Facial Rejuvenation with Essential Oils Part II
This three part series focuses on rejuvenating the face with essential oils. Lets face it girls and boys the very best way to get younger looking skin is a face lift, but barring that the right products and services can help rejuvenate on a topical level.
Tone, texture and hydration are three contributing factors to older looking skin. In the first article in this series we looked at improving the tone of the skin with essential oils. In part II of this series, we will explore how hyrdration can help improve the appearance of the skin.
As we get older the skin gets dryer. Guess what happens as the skin gets dryer? that's right wrinkles and flakiness. That is why it is so important to keep the skin moist and well hydrated. Even if your skin is oily, it still needs hydration. To add moisture to oily skin, it is important to add a carrier oil to to a cleanser or moisturizer. For oily skin I like jojoba, a rapidly absorbing liquid wax and for extremely dry skin, avocado oil. For inbetween skin opt for rose hip oil.
Essential oils that work well on dry skin include rose, rose geranium, frankincense, orchid extract, palmrosa. Orchid extract has no scent and is very hydrating.
This cleanser may also be used for skin that is being treated with heavy duty Retin A for acne. This gentle cleanser can be alternated with your perscription to keep the skin from becomming too uncomfortable dry.
2 ounces organic or natural gel cleanser (ensure there are no essential oils included in the cleanser)
1/4 teaspoon avocado oil or 1/2 teaspoon jojoba or rose hip oil.
10 drops orchid extract
9 drops frankincense
4 drops geranium (to brighten)
3 drops ylang ylang
4 drops palmarosa

Facial Rejuvenation with Essential Oils- Younger Brighter Skin Part 1
A facelift will immediately tighten saggy, baggy skin, eliminate jowels and restore youthful contours to your face. Neurotoxins and dermal fillers will tighten and add volume, but total facial rejuvenation depends on repairing the tone and texture as well as rehydrating the skin.
Improving your skin tone can go along way to taking years off your face. Aging skin can be sluggish, dull and gray with black circles under the eyes creating hollows. Age spots and sun damage and tiny capillaries around the nose can also add years to your face. Essential oils can be important weapons in the battle to polish the surface of your skin. Products must be used consistently for results. Here's how to make an anti-aging serum:
1 ounce of aloe vera gel
1/2 ounce distilled water
3 drops sweet fennel
4 drops frankincense
4 drops palmarosa
2 drops lemon
2 drops helichrysum
Blend oils with aloe vera and distilled water and funnel into a amber or blue pet or glass bottle with dropper top. Tap onto face before bedtime after cleansing, toning and hydrating.
Eye Cream to reduce appearance of dark circles under and smoothe wrinkles around eyes
1 ounce organic or natural unscented light facial cream
50 drops rose hip oil
2 drops cypress
6 drops geranium
2 drops lemon
5 drops sandalwood
Essential oils are already found in many treatment products you are currently using. Some may work for your skin and other's may not. At http://www.omstonearomas.com/ you have the opportunity to select the oils and the carrier (base oils that will work for you). Or you can ask the professional aromatherapist to pick the products she thinks will work best for you based on a detailed description of your complexion.

ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) - Pass the Essential Oils!
ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is a neurobehavioral development disorder found in 3-5% of American children. It is characterized by a child's inability to sit still for a length of time, impulse control (touching things, behaving inappropriately) and an inability to concentrate.
There are thought to be many causes to ADHD. Children with ADHD may also have a second diagnosis. Once kept hush, hush, ADHD is emerging from the closet, not only as a badge of honor, entitling kids to special priveleges because they learn differently, but also because children labeled with this condition are granted additional minutes and hours on timed tests such as the SAT or PSAT. I have observed children as young as 8 comparing the benefits of the patch to long acting ADHD drugs. There seems to be a new comaradry among children afflicted with this disorder.
I do not use the word afflicted lightly, ADHD is manageable but it is difficult. The inability to concentrate has a huge impact on a child's abilty to learn to read, process and spit back information and behave appropriatly. It can affect a child's ability to write, construct sentences and answer simple math questions. Despite this, some parents are reluctant to place their children on medications.
While essential oils cannot treat ADHD, it can provide a supportive, calm atmosphere, that in turn can calm a child. There are certain oils when applied to the sole of a child's foot (the most porous part of the body) can possibly make a strong difference.
There are four ways to offer your child some relief from the constant distractions of ADHD:
1. Diffuse - use during homework time to diffuse essential oils that encourage concentration.
Recommended oils are mandarin, chamomile, rosemary, neroli, and grapefruit. Grapefruit has the
chemical composition to stimulate the brain (ADHD brains need to be stimulated to relax) and
relax the nervous system. Neroli, while an expensive oil can create a soothing environment.
You can substitute clove for rosemary once in awhile to combat fatigue.
2. Topical Application - Mandarin and chamomile are gentle oils that can be applied to the bottom
of a child's feet -- to one ounce of aloe vera add 4 drops mandarin and 2 drops chamomile.
Add 3 drops of vitamin E to prevent oxidation. Patch test your child first for ragweed allergies
--apply one drop to a child's wrist, observe for
15 minutes and cover then cover with a band aid for 24 hours. Check for reaction. Suggest
using this combination for children 7 and older. PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR PRIOR TO
USING TOPICALLY ON CHILDREN. Use prior to leaving for school and at bedtime
3. Aromatic spritzer- This is excellent way to provide a supportive environment for your child and
at the same time signal to him or her that it is homework time. Can also be sprayed on
sheets. In a two ounce bottle add distilled water and 3 drops vitamin e. Then add 2 drops
chamomile, 2 drops neroli, 2 drops clove, 9 drops frankincense, 15 drops grapefruit.
4. OmStone terra cotta personal diffuser- doesn't get much easier than this: order a personalize
Omstone from Omstone aromas - can have your childs, name on it or symbol, skull, baseball
team Comes with a chain can be worn around the neck or wrist or tucked into a pocket for
subtle diffusion. Add a drop or two of mandarin or one drop of mandarin or drop of grapefruit.
Mandarin and chamomile are thought to be very effective in dealing with hyperactivity and challenging behavior. Try it and see what you think.

Hot Flashes? No Sweat. Try Cypress
Faqs.org reports that 52 million American women entered menopause in 2010. Let's tip our hats to those women celebrating their release from tampax, kotex, cramps, PMS and birth control. This calls for a collective hot flash in their honor.
Hot flashes are the second most reported symptom by women entering menopause, which marks the end of their fertile years and monthly periods. For many women this is a time of celebration. For others, hot flashes, minor memory loss, insomnia and other issues make menopause a very difficult time.
Hot flashes are not only uncomfortable they can be very embarassing. Hot flashes are caused by hormonal fluctuations and can be brief or last up to an hour, they can cause a mild heat or a sheet soaking sweat. Fortunately, cypress, Cuppressus semprervirens an under appreciated oil can help.
Cypress is a woody green tree that grows to 60 feet tall. It has been recommended for sweating as far back as Hipppcrates. Cypress is a vasoconstrictor and should be avoided by women with high blood pressure.
Cypress is rich in monoterpenes, particularly a-pinene with comprises 40% of its chemical makeup. The chemical structure of essential oils are important as that is how aromatherapists catergorize their therapuetic actions. Oils that have high monterpene content are refreshing and have a drying effect on the skin and mucous membranes. Cypress also contains 5% of the alcohol cedrol which has relaxing effect.
On a psychological level, cypress is effective for times of transition. This is one great oil for menopausal women. Cypress could be quite effective when used together with cooling aloe vera, rose absolute essential oil or rose geranium, or clary sage. A discreet roll-on comprised of aloe vera, cypress and rose geranium could slipped into a woman's purse and dabbed on the temples, behind the knees or anywhere that was needed to cool down a hot flash and calm sweating.
At home a synergy of oils that could dispersed in a basin of cool water to soak a soft cotton towel to create a heat relieving compress. Inhalation of cypress may also help to calm the mind and lower the panic levels when experiencing a hot flash. Visit http://www.omstonearomas.com/ to find the perfect product to blend with cypress.
