Aromatherapy for Women Part 1

Posted on Monday 13 May, 2013

Menopause

Menopause is a transition time for women coming from a childbearing stage to a greater maturity. It is also referred to as “Change of Life”, as the women are transiting from one part of her life to another.

At the stage of menopause or pre-menopause, a woman starts to undergo several hormonal changes in her body and sometimes this can be quite challenging. From mood swings to severe aches and pains to be very emotional. Men sometimes cannot understand this stage in their wives and sometimes shun them aside and that also makes the women more emotional, thinking that their partners to not understand them and what they are going through.

Pre-menopause is a time when a woman suddenly menstruates heavily with blood clots and suddenly she stops menstruating. This is a starting point of menopause, and it can be quite debilitating to some women. They bleed heavily, thus making them anemic and make them take iron supplements to help them bring red blood cells counts up.

Complaints during this time includes weight gain, sleep problems, fatigue, hot or cold flashes and night sweats (in severe cases, a woman might wake up completely drenched in sweat). Other complaints are decreased interest in sex, loosing mental clarity, forgetting things, mood swings, heart palpitations, vaginal dryness, anxiety, water retention and depression.

There are several essential oils one can use to help ease this condition and go through this life change in a more relaxed manner.  The oils we should choose are the ones that contain hormone-like chemicals that can be used to feed the body, or to be used to relive water retention, hot/cold flashes and emotional changes.

Suitable oils to use during this time are Roman Chamomile, Lavender, Mandarin, Marjoram, Neroli, Petitgrain, Rose (the best), Sandalwood and Ylang ylang. For night sweats, good oils are Cypress, Marjoram, Petitgrain, Lemongrass and Grapefruit.

These are some recipes that can be used for the following conditions:

Ease Night Sweats and Help with Sleep

• 8 drops Cypress
• 6 drops Grapefruit
• 8 drops Marjoram
• 8 drops Petitgrain orange

Mix well with a 30ml vegetable oil (Primrose and Borage are good choices). Apply on the chest and neck area during night time and inhale the oils from the hands taking in deep breaths.

Hot Flashes Formula

• 10 drops Geranium
• 10 drops Clary Sage
• 2 drops Jasmin
• 7 drops Bergamot

Mix this into 30ml base oil and massage over the chest, upper back and soles of the feet at night before sleeping and inhale the balance oils from the hands.

 Water Retention

• 7 drops Sweet Fennel
• 7 drops Juniper berry
• 12 drops Lemon
• 3 drops Peppermint

Mix this into a 20ml base oil and massage over the abdominal and lower back area.

 Sluggish Circulation

• 10 drops Geranium

From Surviving to Thriving with Anita Moorjani

From Surviving to Thriving – A Life Transformational Workshop presented by Anita Moorjani; 18^th December 2012 at The Holistic Institute

Anita Moorjani, as usual, was amazing with her straight forward and simple explanations to the many questions we have about Life, Fear, Anger and other emotions. The audience was taken on a beautiful meditation, and exercises on how they can improve on their own Life styles, health issues and much more. Anita with her amazing knowledge and wisdom was able to answer questions, from each member of the audience with clarity and empathy. Many people from the audience were awe-struck with her simplicity and direct approach that each and every one of us have a choice to what we need to accomplish in this life, and that ‘Life is a Gift’, take full charge of it and “embrace who you are”.  All these magical words gave a lot of insights to the audience who all made a collected decision that they are now to going live from a place of Love instead of a place of Fear. 

We were truly blessed to have her present this at The Holistic Institute and look forward to more in the future.

12.12.12- Loving Authentically Meditation with Anita Moorjani and Sandra Gonzalez

What an amazing day 12-12-12 turned out for all the wonderful souls (120 people), that came to The Holistic Institute to sit for the meditation and talk given by Anita Moorjani and Sandra Gonzalez.  The day turned out to be more than our own expectations, with people simply just Being in that beautiful energy that was created and co-created by each and every one who attended.

The 12 minutes past 12 noon meditation commenced with Sandra grounding everyone and taking them deep into their inner self, and continued with Anita taking them even deeper into their core.  The whole meditation was built around unconditional love for oneself, forgiveness and to truly live our higher purposes for which we each have come to this planet for.  Simply to fulfill our work is what Anita said.

Anita then went into her story about her miraculous recovery from cancer and near death which left many people awestruck about the fact that her story touched each and every one of us, plus people who have lost their loved ones to the disease felt so much at ease with Anita’s explanation that ‘Death is just a State, it is not the end’.  Her questions and answers at the end just flew by with many people still thirsty for more information.

After the question and answers, Anita signed books for most of the participants.  Her New York number one bestselling book “Dying to be ME” was almost sold out, there are still few books left if anyone wants to pick them up.

For her link to the meditation at 12 minutes past 12 noon on 12-12-12, it will be available in MP3 on our website shortly, so,  do click on that link once available under Tutors page under Anita Moorjani.

Following was the evening meditation at 6.30 pm which brought in new energies (90 people) and they too were amazed at the way the magical meditation was guided with both Anita Moorjani and Sandra Gonzalez holding the crowd.  Again, after the meditation Anita shared her miraculous story with the audience and left everyone satisfied and wanting more.  Book signing was next and the whole event left people feeling more grounded and much more in love with the fact that we are here for a higher purpose and we need to work towards that purpose instead of away from it.

Again the MP3 recording will be available on our website shortly for people to download or listen in.

Anita is here until 18^th December and her two workshops “Dying to be ME” is commencing today at 2 pm with a full audience.  Her last workshop will be on 18^th from 6.30 to 8.30 pm “From Surviving to Thriving”, so if you have not signed up yet, what are you waiting for?

Jin Shin Jyutsu

Posted on Friday 09 March, 2012

Jin Shin Jyutsu® is the pathway to harmonizing our bodies with the hands and the breathe.

How can we take care of ourselves when we feel emotionally down? How can we take care of ourselves when we are mentally stressed? How can I keep my body strong, clear, balanced so that my body can be in harmony with what my heart wants to achieve? Do I know what messages are being communicated when a certain symptom shows up in my body? The Gift of Getting to know and Help myself is truly enriching and empowering.

The Jin Shin Jyutsuself-help class with Wayne Hacket empowered the participants to take responsibility for harmonizing themselvesand bringing about total equilibrium to their bodies.It connected the participants with the awareness thatenabled them to create a balance for themselves by utilizing this powerful art of longevity. Thisself-help classwas conducted in English with Arabic translation, which attracted quite a good number from the community. The2 day class provided hands on tools, guidelines so as to understand  the deeper consciousness of thisArt and how can apply it daily to combat stress of all kinds.

On another note a 2 day Jin Shin Jyustu SpecialTopic Class was conducted todevelop practitioner competence and a much deeper understanding of this magical art.

For the first time in UAE a 3 day Jin Shin Jyutsu Mentoring classwas held for senior students to help them on their journey into this art. What a lovely way to end the program with the self-help and the Special Topic Class with Wayne Hackett our Senior teacher from Hawaii and Carlos from Brazil, the students received much knowledge and wisdom from attending these classes.  The Arab speaking community was all praise about how powerful this art really is and the simplicity behind it, and cannot wait for our next 5 Day practitioner class in November 2012 with Cynthia Broshi which will be in English with Arabic translation.

Open Healing Festival

Posted on Tuesday 15 November, 2011

We felt it was the right time after a successful year at The Holistic Institute to hold another beautiful Open Healing Festival where people could really get to know what we were all about.

Similarly to our Open Day we had each consultant around the rooms demonstrating and giving taster treatments to everyone who eagerly waited.

This truly was a beautiful experience to bring our energies together as ONE and it truly felt that way as we ended with a wonderful meditation by renowned spiritual healer Sandra Gonzalez.

What a wonderful day full of giving and receiving healing. I would like to thank all our consultants who participated and everybody who took time to come see The Holistic Institute at its best.

We look forward to our next Open Healing Festival in the near future.

Kundalini Shaktipath

Posted on Friday 30 September, 2011

The Kundalini Shaktipath was absolutely amazing!

With Master Pranaj and Master Raj facilitating the class, we all had wonderful experiences that really awakened the Kundalini in a very safe environemnt with all of us feeling wonderful after.

It seriously was a magical  moment when we felt the fire rising up the spine, especially on the area that was touched by the masters. It felt like an incense stick being placed on that particular point, fear came and went  as we allowed the energy to flow.  Each of us was happy with the outcome, and like any healing modality,  we have to practice the breathing and the exercises that were given to us so, we can always keep our highway (the spine) open and be a clear channel of energy when we offer healings and work on ourselves.

I am delighted that I did this class and hope we can invite them to Dubai again in the near future so,  all of you can experience this masterful awakening of the “Kundalini Shaktipath”.  Blessings

Sunita

Healing Festival, a Success!

Posted on Tuesday 05 July, 2011

After weeks of preparation and planning, it finally happened! It was a beautiful day and everybody who attended the Healing festival was greeted with a warm welcome upon entering the institute. You could feel the positive ambiance and the vibrant energies of the consultants, healers and the participants as well, who were so excited to see what The Holistic Institute can offer.

The rooms were filled with activities. Every corner was occupied by consultants and tutors who happily and willingly shared their healing knowledge to those who approached them. Participants waited patiently for their turn to have sampler treatments from our well -known healers and professional consultants. We showcased free healing and treatments using Clinical Aromatherapy, Clinical Reflexology, Quantum Energy Healing, Jin Shin Jyutsu, Pranic Healing, Theta Healing, Body Spin and more. They also experienced having a dose of Raw Food Workshop, Healthy Mind, Healthy Body, and Soul language, Energy Centers of the Body, Feng Shui and Spiritual Readings. Aside from receiving free treatments, each participant had the chance to win exciting prizes and the lucky winners received gift certificates from The Holistic Institute.

Though it was the first time to have this Healing Festival, it was indeed a successful event. People with the same passion gathered together to once again share their love in holistic therapies and natural remedies. Those who attended were amazed with what they saw and experienced. Everyone enjoyed having a taste of different healing modalities and they took the opportunity to learn great new things about alternative medicines.  It certainly was a fun event and many asked when the next one will be.

When I asked the participants if they will join our future activities again, they answered with a smile and quickly say “definitely!”
