Essential Oils to help with Grief and Loss
Lava stones, formed from cooled volcanic lava, are renowned for their grounding properties, symbolising strength and resilience. But more than that, their porous nature makes them excellent carriers for essential oils, allowing for a slow, sustained release of aroma throughout the day.
You can add a drop of essential oils to a Lava Stone included in your jewellery, to a piece you hold during meditation or you can scent your home by adding drops of oil to a bowl of Lava Stones.
If you want to use Lava Stones for aromatherapy it is essential to buy the unwaxed versions - the waxed stones will not absorb the oil.
Always follow the usage instructions that come with essential oils and don’t apply undiluted oils directly to your skin.
Essential oils can offer gentle emotional support during times of grief and loss, helping to create a calming and nurturing atmosphere. Their soothing aromas may help to ease feelings of sadness, anxiety, and overwhelm, providing moments of comfort when emotions feel heavy. Incorporating essential oils into your daily routine can encourage mindfulness and reflection, allowing space for healing to begin.
Over time, their subtle yet supportive presence can help restore a sense of peace and emotional balance.
