Essential Yoga Practice

Essential Yoga Practice Of the many things in life that we have a great passion for, two go very well together: doTERRA oils and yoga.

We help new and seasoned yoga students incorporate aromatherapy and Ayurveda into their yoga practice to enhance mind-body-spirit benefits of the practice as well as to deepen awareness and self understanding. The interplay of these two very useful practices lend themselves to a myriad of benefits: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Some of you reading this may have a greater unde

rstanding and experience with using essential oils and some of you may be more connected to your yoga practice. Both are a “practice.” We practice to understand ourselves and our world better, to see where our efforts can be helpful and useful. We practice to learn much more than how to be strong and healthy physically, emotionally and spiritually. We practice to learn to be better human beings everyday, to affect positive change and to make our world a better place. And, as with the idea of what the word practice means, we must work at using these tools consistently, so that we refine what we are able to do and evolve along the way. Whether you are a new or a seasoned student, try using your doTERRA essential oils for your next yoga practice. To learn more, go to the blog and sign up to receive new posts. This site will provide great essential oil education as well as information on how to practice yoga, safely and effectively. Essential Yoga Practice will also be out in print soon!

A good grounding blend of essential oils is typically comprised mostly of tree oils, or bass notes. The blend can include such oils as spruce, ho wood oil, frankincense, blue tansy, and blue chamomile in a base of fractionated coconut oil. An effective grounding blend helps you anchor -- or center yourself -- as it promotes tranquility and a sense of balance.

Think of the steadiness of trees -- how they send roots deeply into the soil for solid anchoring. Tree oils support us as we strive to connect better to Mother Earth below us and open our minds to inspiration from our Higher Power above us. We become a conduit for the energy that flows all around us. What a beautiful way to start the day and open the pathway for additional essential oils.

Does your inventory need any of these oils to create a grounding blend? Check out our link for more info.

Happy Fall Equinox from Essential Yoga Practice! As we ease into the Fall, Ayurveda gives us great advice for smooth transitions.

Here are a few of our favorites:
*In your daily practice, work against the dryness of the season by oiling and massaging the body to remove toxins and to nourish the skin with carrier oils like almond oil and coconut oil.
*Depending on your dosha, consider a carrier oil infused with herbs or essential oils like tulsi, lemon grass, lemon eucalyptus and cedarwood.
*Massaging the belly in clockwise fashion to aid healthy digestion/elimination and massage the joints too!
*Incorporate healthy fats into your diet to boost energy.
*And, in your yoga asana practice, give attention to both the mobility and the strengthening of the hips with poses like Baddha Konasana, Bound Angle pose, stabilizing standing poses like Trikonasana, Tree, and Virabhadrasana, Warrior poses.
*Cultivate core strengthening with poses like Salabhasana, Locust pose and Navasana, Boat pose.
*End with a counterbalancing pose like Jathara Parivartanasana, Revolved Stomach pose and a restorative pose like Balasana, Child’s pose, before a longer Savasana, Co**se pose.

We encourage you to find a moment today and in every day this week to be in nature. Short, quiet walks or long hikes or just taking in the sunrise or sunset. You might be surprised at how nature might inspire you to strike a pose. Ayurveda teaches us to begin our day by going outside as soon as possible to breathe, meditate, and allow the sunlight to help calibrate our body clock. Let your body be refreshed by the beauty around you. Share your practice and inspire us too!
