The nervous system is your body’s communication channel. The nerves send and receive messages that allow you to think, feel, process sensory information, and control movement. The nervous system is also responsible for emotions. Learning to manage negative emotions can help balance the nervous system. Essential oils can help calm the body, generate a positive mood, and support a healthy nervous system.*
• Diffuse recommended oils to promote a relaxing environment.
• Take select oils internally for nervous system concerns.
• Use select oils topically to calm the nerves and ground emotions.
• Massage oils into neck and shoulders, or in a relaxing full body massage.
The nervous system, comprising the brain, spinal cord, and a network of nerves, plays a vital role in regulating body functions. It processes sensory information, regulates involuntary functions like breathing and digestion, and enables voluntary movements.
For example, when you touch something hot, your nervous system quickly sends signals to your brain, prompting you to pull your hand away. Without this intricate system, fundamental abilities like reasoning, seeing, feeling, and processing emotions would be impaired.
The nervous system is highly sensitive and can easily become imbalanced. Stress, anxious feelings, or head tension can disrupt its function, leading to discomfort. Maintaining positive emotions and managing stress are key to nervous system health.
Essential oils can help promote relaxation, ease tension, and uplift the mood. Oils such as Lavender, Peppermint, and Wild Orange, which are available in India, are ideal for supporting a balanced nervous system.
By using these doTERRA products and practices, you can better support your nervous system and foster emotional and physical balance.
