Pathway to Presence e-news: Sharing life-enhancing tips to raise your inner vibe!
Note From Gina
Happy Tuesday!
Hope everyone is enjoying the summer months. Can you tell Roxy is (that's her in the pic at my in-laws pool)? I'm just glad she didn't roll over or she'd end up IN the pool. :)
Few announcements.....
First, there's still time to sign up for the last two Aroma Talks of the summer series - the next one is a week from today. See below to sign up (they're fr.ee!).
Secondly, I have a new product at my website. I've been using this product for a couple years and love it. See link to product below.
Lastly, I have a guest article below in the Aromatherapy Luminary section. It was such a great article I thought I'd share it with you. I think we all have little inklings of resentment here and there and in her article, Marlena Field describes a useful technique to squash those resentful thoughts.
After the article you can check out my little blurb about what essential oils you can use to help you conquer resentment.
Welcome all new subscribers! So glad you're here :).
Empower yourself to have an amazing day!
To your blossoming inner journey,
Gina

Reverse Resentment
by Marlena Field, PCC, CPCC
Many of us would like to be more abundant in some area of our life, be it in the area of relationships, career, finance, family, recreation, health. We have dreams of what that would look like, what that would feel like. By embodying those thoughts, even for a few minutes, our body can feel the positive impact...we may even smile at the thought.
Yet, we often say disparaging things about people who have what we desire...or at least experience envy. If for example, you would like to be financially well off, become aware of any resentful thoughts you may experience to put those people down. Avoid using expressions such as "filthy rich", "they don't know what enough is" or "they think money grows on trees". Notice how these thoughts can be felt in the body as tension, a furrowed brow.
By debasing something that we actually want, we are giving the universe, and ourselves, a mixed and misleading message. On the one hand we are saying we desire more abundance...and on the other hand we are saying and thinking negative thoughts.
By bringing our contrary thoughts to awareness - the mixed messages we are thinking - we can begin to let the negative thoughts go. Instead of being resentful and critical of - a wealthy person driving by in a flashy car; a couple who are obviously very much in love; a successful professional at the top of their game; a person is good physical condition - try celebrating their success. Look at them and say to yourself, or to them, "Good for you!" It puts positive energy and good will into your day...and sends the universe the appropriate message...the message that you value the abundance that you desire.
Take time to reflect on how disempowering it is to have feelings of resentment - yet experience envy at the same time. Notice how these feelings, body sensations and thoughts do not support what you want to create in your life. Catch yourself in the negative habit and transform it. Make the necessary changes within yourself to reverse resentment...celebrate examples of what you want and move toward the celebration of what you most desire.

My Aromatherapy Luminary Tip on conquering resentment:
- Pick 2-4 of the essential oils below and mix a total of 9-12 drops into a one-ounce bottle with a flip or screw top
- Then add a base to fill up the rest of the bottle such as jojoba or sweet almond oil, then screw the cap onto the bottle
- Shake gently and use as a body oil, bath oil, rub a little on your pulse points or massage your feet before going sleep.....Ahh!
- Use daily, especially when feelings of resentment appear
- Sweet orange
- Bergamot
- Chamomile
- Rose
- Neroli
- Lavender
- Peppermint (strong scent-just a drop or two is usually enough)
- Fennel
- Basil
- Pine
- Vetiver
Enjoy!
*Important Note: Before using any essential oils, check with your medical practitioner if you have any health concerns or conditions or if you are pregnant or nursing.
