  • Here are some of the most common ingredients for a home-made face mask and their benefits: Cucumbers -- Cooling, soothing and healing. The classic at-home eye pad. Or you can peel cucumber and put it in a blender with some other ingredients. Avocado - rich in vitamins A, B1, B2, D and E and oil. A good choice for dry and sensitive skin. Honey - Has hydrating, toning and tightening effects. Papaya - Contains papain, a protein-digesting enzyme that dissolves the dead outer layer of the skin. Don't use if your skin is already irritated or sunburned. Eggs - Egg whites tighten and tone the skin. Yogurt - Contains natural lactic acid, which helps exfoliate the skin. It can be used alone as skin softening face mask and is appropriate for all skin types. Potatoes - Use thin slices for oily skin or to reduce under-eye puffiness. Herbs - Herbs and teas such as chamomile (soothing) can be used as ingredients for face masks and compresses.

    interesante estudio sobre los tipos de consumidor,   personality was measured using the "Big Five" personality traits model, a scale psychologists use to describe how extraverted, neurotic, open, conscientious and agreeable a person is. People who spent most of their disposable income on experiences scored highly on the "extravert" and "openness to new experience" scales.

The smell of virtue is lemony fresh - thestar.com - 1 views

  • But a growing body of research indicates that smell strongly affects how we think and act, that it can make people buy more, favour certain locations, and even respond more ethically and charitably.
  • "They are small behaviours – it's not international peace – but they can have a significant effect on interpersonal relations," says Avery Gilbert, a research psychologist specializing in smell
  • Researchers found that people acted more fairly and generously when they were exposed unconsciously to that fragrance.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • Smell lights up whole concepts in the brain, through what psychologists call "associative networks," explains New Jersey-based Gilbert. The science of smell got a big boost in 2004 when American researchers Richard Axel and Linda Buck won a Nobel Prize for discovering the large family of about a thousand genes for odour receptors and clarifying how the system works. In his lab at Northwestern University, neuroscientist Jay Gottfried uses magnetic resonance imaging techniques to study the effects of odours on the brain. "Smell has very intimate access to parts of the brain involved in emotion and memory," he explains. "How a person perceives a smell is all about familiarity and cognitive context."
  • Another experiment, looking at charitable behaviour, found those in the lemony-fresh room expressed more interest in volunteering for a service project and donating money. Twenty-two per cent said they'd like to give money, compared to 6 per cent of those with unteased nostrils.
  • "Experiencing cleanliness through smell activated associations of virtue and moral purity and drove behaviour more that way," explains study co-author Chen-Bo Zhong, a business professor at the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management. His study was recently published online in Psychological Science.
  • As for improving personal behaviour, Gilbert suggests that students could use scents that get them in the right state of mind to study.
  • What fragrance says "work hard"? "That's a very personal choice," says Gilbert. "It's like what kind of music someone listens to while studying. Some might choose classical, others Metallica. College kids tend to use a phenomenal amount of Febreze."

  • God was the first aroma therapist creating the aromatic molecules of plants to not only reverse illness, but to preserve our health and prevent future sickness from manifesting
  • The molecular structures of essential oils are small enough to penetrate human skin, enter through the lung alveolar cells, pass through the blood brain barrier, pass through cell walls, even act as chemical messengers to communicate with cellular intelligence at the level of DNA.
  • The medicinal properties found in these molecules contain enough healing properties to cover every cell in our bodies. One drop of essential oil contains 40 to the 19th power. That’s 40 with nineteen zeroes in one drop of oil.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • When you breathe oil molecules they are detected by the brain olfactory center via the nostrils, which stimulates the central part of the brain called the amygdala that manages your storage and filing systems for emotions. The amygdala does not respond to spoken, heard or written language. It only responds to smell. Essential oils can communicate to that portion of our brain’s limbic system and release repressed emotions that have hindered us since childhood. Stored trauma or painful emotions, just like stored physical toxins, can make us sick and cause pain, illness and suffering on all levels.
  • Another remarkable property of essential oils is their ability to carry electrical charges ( negative ions) across cell membranes to increase the cell’s frequencies to vibrational resonant levels where disease cannot exist.
  • run between 52-320 MHZ with rose oil being the highest of all known substances
  • Life begets life and death begets death

Essential Oils and Aromatherapy: Raise Your Frequency with These Divine Gifts - 0 views

essential oils aromatherapy frequency divine spirit

shared by Irene V. on 22 Aug 12 - No Cached
  • The volatile essences of aromatic plants contain potent, complex, natural chemical compounds that work at multiple levels to catalyze physical, emotional, and spiritual healing.
  • the oils’ most important, and at the same time, most under-explored, factor, is their inherent frequency—their intact Life Force Energy and intelligence.
  • using oils purposefully for communion with your Spirit is powerful, not only because of the interaction between you and the oils, but because of the intention you are expressing with your actions and thoughts. Before meditating, praying, or shamanic journeying, try putting a drop of your favorite high-frequency oil in your palm, and then use the index finger of your other hand to activate it by stirring it clockwise several times, dab it on your third eye, temples, and heart, or wherever your intuition suggests, before rubbing your palms together, cupping them in front of your face, and inhaling deeply. This will catalyze an instant rise in frequency, so that the “rest of you” is vibrationally closer in frequency to your Spirit.

  • Some of my favorites for this purpose are frankincense, sandalwood, rose, and oils from conifers, as well as blends containing high-frequency oils.
