TRANSFORMATIVE ANOINTING OILS

November 10, 2015

The practice of anointing the body with precious botanical oils and essences of flowers + gems is one of the most simple, and luxurious, ways we can remind ourselves of the preciousness of our bodies -- and even bigger picture, our lives.

By acknowledging and seeing our own bodies as sacred, we begin to see everything in our lives that way, transforming the mundane into the divine.

As the tool to make this transformative ritual of loving your body apart of your everyday, we created the Anointing Oils. Based in jojoba oil and infused with organic & wildcrafted essential oils, flower elixirs, and gem essences, these natural perfumes are completely free of harmful chemicals, phthalates and synthetic fragrances.*

Applied to the pulse points 5 times a day, these purse-sized perfumes work through the acupuncture meridians and are just as effective as our flower elixirs!

Wondering which Anointing Oil you need most right now? Look at the flowers in the quiz below to find out!

 

  1. JOY JUICE ::You take your life and your job seriously. You care about what you put out into the world and you want your actions to be aligned with your values. As a result, you have a tendency to get overly serious and forget the positive impact of play. African Daisyelicits joy, laughter + play, which clarifies life's purpose and effortless magnifies the impact of your actions. The aromas of jasmine, sweet orange, davana + rosewood will instantly bring a warm smile to your face.
  2. INFINITE LOVE :: You have a tendency to be hard on yourself. Hong Kong Orchid enhances self-love + appreciation, helps you be yourself & feel attractive. The exquisite bouquet of rose, mandarin + honey magnetizes love from all around.
  3. RADIANT ENERGY :: You may be feeling fatigued, weak or vulnerable to colds - from toxic overload (from artificial fragrances, pesticides or other harmful chemicals), or you may tend to take on stress from other people. Pomegranate Flower helps energetically cleanse the body + mind, boosts the immune system and balances the reproductive system. Radiant Energy is infused with palo santo fruit + douglas fir - the perfect balance of earth, smoke + fruit.
  4. INSPIRED ACTION :: You have something on your to-do list that you don’t feel like doing; Red Bird of Paradise inspires motivation and drive to help you focus + get things done. With aromas of pink pepper, Jamaican bay + citrus, a splash of this on the wrist is perfect when in need of a little extra push of motivation.
  5. QUIET MIND :: You have lots of ideas, but sometimes it’s hard to turn it off (especially at night, when you want to sleep), Bird of Paradise dissolves over-thinking & quiets the mind for more clarity + focus. In addition to the transformative flower essences, the aromas of geranium, lemon + coriander help the body relax + take more breaks.
  6. INNER PEACE :: When you have a lot going on, a lot on your plate or dealing with transition and change, Arctic Lupine induces deep peace, calm + a sense of support. The grounding aromas of lavender, cedar, vetiver + geranium also enhance a deep sense of comfort & centeredness in times of high-stress.
  7. FIERCE COMPASSION :: You tend to wear your heart on your sleeve and lately you may feel tender as a result of emotional wounds or environments that are not supportive. One of the best flowers for healing the heart, Red Rose triggers forgiveness + softens our hard edges. It enhances compassion, promotes a gentle strength + inspires us to nurture ourselves + others. Fierce Compassion is one of our most complex, unique + avant garde essential oil blends ~ we find the combination of rose, dirt, liquor and caramel extremely addictive.
  8. FULL BLOOM :: Are you yearning to make a huge leap in your personal growth? There may be fears or self-limiting patterns that need to worked through, however, in order to make that leap. They likely reside in your subconscious, so you may be unaware of how they are affecting your actions + possibly creating obstacles toward reaching your goals. Night-Blooming Cereus dissolves any subconscious limitations that may hold us back + encourages us to elevate what we’re working on in a big way. Aroma-therapeutically, it’s the blend that practically every person on the earth loves without hesitation, men and women alike, with its sensuous, yet accessible blend of citrus and spices.
  9. TRUTHTELLER :: Are you going with the flow too often, especially when what’s necessary is for you to speak your mind? You may be adapting too much, when what's truly necessary is for you to speak your mind and state your case clearly. Black Bat Flower gives us a burst of confidence, awakens our fearlessness + gives us the power to propel ourselves forward. Infused with Cardamom, Cedar and Douglas Fir, the aromatherapy of Truthteller is reminiscent of a sweetly spiced coniferous forest.
  10. WILD ABUNDANCE :: You believe anything is possible + you'll work your ass off to get there. This can lead to a sense of over-working, struggle + lack if you're not careful. Pink Peony is all about helping us experience the magic of everyday life. The lusciousness of this blend has the effect of inviting us into a world of abundance + magic -- where your wildest dreams will begin to unfold before your eyes.
  11. BOUNDLESS WISDOM :: You may long for a deeper connection with everything around you, be drawn to meditation or wish to develop your spiritual path more deeply. Alternatively, you may have moments where life feels harsh. Bodhi Tree catalyzes an all-encompassing love that pacifies negative emotions. It helps us embrace life as it is + perceive the sacredness that is woven into the fabric of everyday life. Infused with essential oils of Cardamom, Rose, Jasmine + Frankincense, Boundless Wisdom is an earthy floral scent that smells like you’re taking a walk in the woods.
  12. GAMECHANGER :: There may be an area of your life that feels heavy or stagnant, like you're trudging through the mud. You may feel weighed down by a heavy to-do list and constantly spinning your wheels and not getting enough done. Giant Spider Lily shines light into our blind spots, illuminating areas of our life that are stagnant or in need of fresh energy. It helps us streamline life by cutting out unnecessary busy work so we can share our gifts with the world in a simple way. Highlighting the essential oils of Ylang Ylang and Vetiver, the aroma is exotic, sweet, smoky and rich.
Already using these transformative Anointing Oils? Here is a ritual just for you:

Visualize the entire universe inside your body. As you're anointing yourself with precious botanical oils and elixirs of flowers + gems, you can visualize making offerings of endless fields of flowers, gems and delightful fragrances that awaken minds + make everyone happy.

As we visualize everyone, including ourselves, becoming happy and clear - it naturally shifts how we see the world in our everyday life, because we activate our broader awareness of all beings in the world and how we're all interconnected. What we wish for another, we wish for ourselves.

A simple act of self-care transforms into a profound prayer for humanity.
