Essential Oils for Grieving

Grieving can come in many forms and essential oils can be comforting and helpful tools when experience times of grief.

Mostly we think about grieving when we have lost a loved one or a beloved pet. But we are also grieving transitions in our life, when going through a breakup, separation or divorce, loss of a relationship that was important to us, loss of our job, moving to a new location and losing the support network we had, even the loss of our youth and experiencing changes our body is going through can cause us to experience grief.

Whatever transition or loss you are experiencing, it is important to allow yourself to grieve. Some essential oils that I have found to be especially helpful during times of grief include an essential oil blend called Console which is deeply soothing and calming, a blend called Forgive as it can help us with processing our thoughts and feelings, and Bergamot essential oil as it helps our inner strength, our resilience and confidence in ourselves to be able to cope with the change we are facing and it can help us feel a little bit lighter, bring a little bit of joy when we need it most.

Simply apply Console and Forgive to the inside of your wrists, rub wrists together, and over your heart area, several times a day as needed. It can also be very soothing to apply one or any of the oils individually to the inside of your palms, rub hands together to create a little heat, cup hands 6″ from face, close your eyes, and inhale for a couple of minutes, several times a day. Diffuse 4-6 drops of Bergamot whereever you spend time during the day. Should you have a cat, please read this article for safe use of essential oils around cats.

These oils have been so comforting to me during difficult times, I hope they’ll bring comfort to you, too.
