You want to
boycott the cold and humidity that make you feel tight and withdrawn? Call on
black pepper, jasmine and pink grapefruit essential oils in sesame oil with a
touch of vitamin E oil for a savvy solution.
This trio will perk Lady Kapha and
Dame Vata like no other. Everyone around them will notice that they are up
for the best pleasures life has to offer. Definitely can be worn under the
sexiest red lamé dress for a sultry night out while making you healthier.
Señorita Pitta, however
should avoid this powerful élixir unless she’s ready to ignite her inner
nuclear power. Here’s why. Pepper as you already suspect is one of the most
heating and drying essential oils in aromatherapy, jasmine is heating as is grapefruit. Although kapha and vata skin
loves it, sensitive pitta skin could break out in a rash. That’s the short story. But then it smells so tantalizing.
Black Pepper
The pungent peppercorn, from which essential oil can be distilled,
contains vitamins A and C, significant amounts of potassium, calcium, zinc, manganese,
magnesium, and iron. And that’s not it. Add pyridoxine, riboflavin, thiamin and
niacin of the B-complex vitamin group. Pepper fires up digestive and sexual appetite,
increases absorption of B-complex vitamins and other nutrients from food as
well as movement in the walls of the gut for easier elimination.
Believe it or not, it also has anti-inflammatory properties,
especially in the joints. It helps the body remove harmful free radicals to protect
from cancers and diseases, enhances free flow of oxygen to the brain, and stimulates
the activity of the heart. Ayurveda values it for its anti-aging properties.
Jasmine
Thick and heavy, jasmine essential oil is gently
warming, erogenous
(read «aphrodisiac») and is used to treat various problems
of the reproductive tracts like menstrual cramps, impotence, frigidity and
prostate problems. It even calms the uterus which is helpful during giving
birth.
This seductive oil reduces anxiety and depression.
Massaged over the heart center it generates feelings of hope. Of course it
works amazingly well on skin, slows down wrinkles and rejuvenates aging skin
and skin afflicted by eczema. In addition, jasmine has been used in ayurveda as
a means to increase immunity and fight fever.
Pink Grapefruit
Like all citrus fruit based essential oils, pink
grapefruit’s is uplifting, stimulant and tonic. A study by the Brigham Young University, «Small concentrations of grapefruit essential oil showed an 80.5% cell
inhibition value for skin cancer cells.» This essential oil has adequate
amount of spermidine, a compound that plays a significant roles in the
survival of cells.
Emotionally, it helps with anxiety, bad moods or
stress, all of which impact our hormones. In addition, the aromatic effects
support one's own sense of self-love and approval, especially in regards to
loving and honoring our bodies. Ayurveda recommends it to curb food cravings, liver congestion, excess body
fat, cholesterol and other toxic substances.
Together, these three essential oils ooze a
sense of powerful wellbeing and the desire to share that with others. They remind us of our original attributes; they help us reclaim and honour these as our truth in living to our fullest physical, creative, sexual, emotional,
mental and spiritual potential.
