For my oil enthusiasts, here is a great blend to calm the  nerves and soothe the soul. I always suggest a high-grade,  medicinal-quality oil because the body quickly metabolizes  these through the skin. So many brands in today’s market are  full of synthetics and things that have no business in healing.  While I personally use the Young Living brand, this isn’t a  commercial for them. It’s what works best for me. If you have  a really good, pure oil you love, go for it.  131 Balsam copaiba resin – This is a fabulous oil for its antiinflammatory, analgesic, and antiseptic properties as well as  its ability to help foster a connection with your community  and the natural and supernatural world around you. It helps  give one a sense of grounding and protection and it will open  your roots for stability.  Vanilla – This delicious bit of heaven is an old staple for  personal empowerment, amazing luck, calming, soothing,  and nurturing the soul. It’s probably found in just about every  good love potion and creates a space, like a pause in time, for  us to catch our breath.  Cedarwood – Cedarwood lends us confidence and personal  empowerment. It soothes that one poor, frayed nerve you  have left and helps repair the rest of them. It helps the neuron  sheathing and promotes brain function while fostering  security with a high-frequency shield ability.  Lavender – This is so often used that I must make sure I  don’t subconsciously discount it. I won’t belabor what you  probably already know. Every soothing thing that can be  done for us seems to be in this versatile little flower’s job  description. I recommend you not to overdo it. A little goes  a long way.  Hyssop – A magical powerhouse oil that I love for making  radical shifts, this diamond of herbs has been used as  medicine for the gallbladder, liver, and gut. It has also been  132 used to control and command spirits, and in the Bible, it was  used for exorcisms. I suspect that when illness in the bowels  and liver is alleviated, the snarly grouch dealing with those  issues is relieved, so that would make sense.  1. Gather your oils and use either a pipette or drop-pour  bottle to blend them into a 10 mL roller bottle. I love to mix  crystal chips in my roller bottles, and you can find ones where  the roller is made from crystal, too. Rose quartz is always a  great option for this, but feel free to run with it if a particular  crystal calls to you.  Below is a suggested ratio, but if you have a special affinity  (or sensitivity) for one or another, make the blend work for  you. If you want it really strong, you can double the recipe. 10 Drops Copaiba – 5 Drops Vanilla – 7 Drops Cedarwood 3 Drops Lavender – 6 Drops Hyssop 2. You can add your favorite high-quality carrier oil. I use a  blend, but use whatever high-quality oil that you love here. 3. Tighten the bottle, flip it over, and with all the intention of  your Highest Sorceress(or), tap it 77 times on the bottom.  4. When you use it on your skin, aim for the heart, points  along the meridians and wrist.  133 If you are sensitive to smells and incense, you can just put a  little in your hair and allow the gentle whiff every so often  to work your olfactory senses. Health comes through the  frequency. It doesn’t take a lot to work a lot.
