Wow, what a weird time this is! We've got a lot going on with the global pandemic, social distancing, loss of income, health concerns, death, all the while TRYING to live as normally as we can. I could go on and on about my personal feelings, but bottom line is we're ALL in this together. And by all, I mean everyone around the globe.
If you're in my wellness community already or have stumbled upon this blog post because you're into essential oils then this post is for YOU!
Of course, I LOVE my doTERRA Essential Oils! They have been a source of comfort, empowerment and relief for me and my family in more ways than I can count. I've said it before, and I know it'll come out of my mouth again - these oils/products have changed my life. Sounds like I'm being overly dramatic, but I promise you, I'm not. When you start sleeping through the night and going to sleep quickly after over two decades of not sleeping - that's LIFE CHANGING, right!?!
Anyway, so you know I love the oils and I'm assuming you do too. So, I want to share with you a "new and different" way to use your essential oils - at least one that you may not have thought of yet. It's an amazing technique called Symphony of the Cells™ (SOC). Symphony of the Cells™ is a hands-on massage application technique for essential oils. You layer and apply specific essential oils, in a specific order on the spine and feet.
Oils on the spine is effective because they quickly hit the nervous system cells which travel throughout the rest of the body. Applying essential oils on bottoms of feet is effective because of the multiple reflex points, and the oils quickly absorb.
This essential oil application method is designed to help anyone bring harmony physically, emotionally, and spiritually within the body. Boyd Truman is the creator of SOC and he has developed 19 different protocols that are used to help us be proactive as well as reactive when our bodies undergo different challenges. One of the coolest parts about the Symphony of the Cells™ techniques are how quickly you can do them. The Basic protocol, consist of just four essential oils, can be done in just a couple minutes. The most complex, with 10 steps, still only take 5 to 7 minutes. So, you can imagine, the benefits of using this essential oil application method far outweigh the time it takes to do it. BONUS!
It's super easy too! And although it's enjoyed more when someone else can apply the essential oils on you, this is simple enough that you can do it for yourself, when necessary.
To apply the essential oils, you'll drop a few drops of oils on the spine. Rub the oils into the spine in a circular, clockwise motion from the lower back to the base of the skull. If alone, you'd simply apply the oils to the areas of the spine that you can reach - your lower spine and back of your neck.
If you'd like to learn more about Symphony of the Cells™ you should check out the FREE Online Learning with the SOC creator, Boyd Truman. If for some reason that link doesn't work anymore, or you want to get the Symphony of the Cells™ Application Book that includes 19 different protocols, then simply visit www.symphonyofthecells.com. The free training includes a video where the SOC Basic protocol is demonstrated so you can see how easy it is - if I haven't done a good enough job explaining how simple it is.
Although I cannot share any of the protocols here, if you have any questions or would like some suggestions, please never hesitate to reach out. Plus I'm AromaTouch certified, so if your local to Colorado and would like to schedule a FREE massage or SOC treatment, that's what I'm here for!
