100 Essential Oils in 100 Days - Day 1 - Angelica

The scientific name for it is Angelica arcangelica. It has also been referred to as "Female Ginseng," which I actually find rather humorous. :D

Angelica is a very unique essential oil, as one would assume by it's name. In years past it's powerful effect on health and wellness caused the plant and its oil to be believed that it was of divine origin. It was even called the "Oil of Angels" by many Europeans. During the plague of 1660, the stems of the angelica plants were chewed and the seeds and roots burned as it was believed to purify the air and prevent infection.

Today we can see very easily through science that it is definitely a powerful oil, causing great support in the nervous system and aiding greatly in promoting emotional balance. Many people also use it to aid in healthy digestion and absorption as well.

Angelica essential oil is derived from the steam distilled from the seeds and roots of the plant. Suggested dilution ratios are 50/50, and as it is a photosensetive oil, it is advised not to use it when you will be in direct contact with sun light.

Young Living blends containing Angelica are: Awaken, Forgiveness, Grounding, Harmony, Live with Passion, Oola Balance and Surrender.

Systems it supports:
-Nervous System
-Digestive System
-Hormonal Balance
-Emotional Balance

How Essential Oils Affect the Body Systems - Yaasha Wheeler

Some people wonder: “Are essential oils like natural pharmaceuticals? Will they make my [symptom] better?” Okay, here’s the truth: Essential oils are more like vitamins than like medicine. Let me explain.

When you take a medicine, it is designed to target a symptom and help relieve that symptom. The problem is that just fixing the symptom may not fix the underlying cause, which is a compromised body system. Stomach pain, for example, may be temporarily fixed by medicine, but if the underlying cause (a compromised digestive system) is not attended to, that symptom will likely reappear even after treatment.


Vitamins, on the other hand, help the body to stay in good working order. They ensure that your body’s systems are balanced and supported properly. The painful stomach, for example, will be likely to improve when the overall health of the whole digestive system is supported.

Essential oils are similar to vitamins in that they are best at SUPPORTING, REPAIRING and BUILDING healthy body systems. A healthy system is one that is consistently cared for and given the tools it needs to maintain its optimum balance. Essential oils penetrate every cell to bring their healthful properties and, through consistent use, they can indeed become vital parts of supporting your body systems.

What are Essential Oils?

Essential oils are the means by which God created plants to communicate between themselves, animals and us as humans. We are made aware of their presence by the aroma God so uniquely bestowed in the essential oils of each individual plant.

-They are what is in herbs that causes them to be medicinal in promoting health and healing in our bodies.
-They are what rushes to aid in a plants healing process from the invasion of parasites and disease.
-They are what draws or detracts animals to their succulent foliage.
-They are what attracts us to the great outdoors.
-They are what God created to service our bodies, supporting and maintaining our body’s function through their many health-promoting molecules
   

“He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;
“And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man’s heart.”
Psalm 104:14-15

God created herbs for the SERVICE of man so that he is able to go forward in good health and supply for the needs of himself and others. The oil that makes his face to shine is not because oil is greasy, but because the different oils work to balance and encourage health in our bodies. You know how a healthy, robust person will literally glow with health? This is what it literally means!

So... What Can I Use Essential Oils For?

 There are so many different ways oils can be used! They can be used as a healthy, chemical-free alternative for any and every household product including cleaners, bath and body products, and cooking! They can also be used to promote wellness in our many pets. Last, but certainly not least, they can be used to encourage our bodies to function in the healthiest way possible and promote overall wellness in our families!

Let me say here that I absolutely cannot diagnose or treat any health issue, I can only speak about the education I have done to maintain a healthy balanced life both physically and mentally.

I have learned about the different body systems and the oils that can help these systems find balance. I have begun to encourage my members to do their own research. If you have a question about a certain health issue, type into google or some other search engine your health issue + body system, and then we can discuss what oils we can use to support that body system.

So how can we use our oils? To urge our bodies into an overall healthy, well-balanced way of life!

Why Essential Oils? Part I

We all know and recognize the fruits of plants as some of the healthiest things we can put into our mouths. Fruits, seeds, and vegetables are filled with countless nutrients and antioxidants that enrich our bodies and bolster our immune and other body systems. Whenever our bodies are compromised in any way, changing to a more natural diet is one of the first things we generally think of. Allergen free diets, anti-inflammatory diets and many other usually first encourage the increase of fruits, vegetables, and seeds.

One must wonder, if fruits, veggies, and seeds are so full of natural goodness, what about the plants that produce them?

“He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;” – Psalm 104:14

In all reality, because of the functions and duties of plants, they have an even greater ability to assist with natural body function and support. Dried herbs, spices, and essential oils have been used for their medicinal benefits for centuries. Scriptures and other ancient writings frequently mention the use of her, oils, and spices. They were valued very highly and were often kept with silver, gold, and other precious things.

“And Hezekiah was glad of them, and shewed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures:” – Isaiah 39:2

What are essential oils, and why are they so important?

Just as blood is the life force of our bodies that work as a defense system and distributes oxygen, nutrients, and other things throughout our bodies, essential oils are the life force of plants. They are a highly concentrated form of the nutrients, natural defense system protecting against bacterial and viral infections, cleansing agents, and function enhancing chemicals of the plants they are derived from. As you can see, there are some striking similarities between the functions of our blood and essential oils. This is part of why essential oils work so well in supporting and enhancing our own body system.
