Essential oils for confidence

Essential oils for confidence

As with most phobias, (meaning fear of), we are dealing with a perceived fear of something. This situation is very real to the person who is affected by the condition.

Essential oils are natural aromatic compounds found in plants that can be extracted and used for a variety of purposes. There is increasing evidence that these oils may help with mood, anxiety, sleep quality, and more.

Essential Oils for Emotional Support

Essential oils are the aromatic, volatile compounds of plants. They exist in the leaves, stems, roots, bark, flowers, and other parts of plants. If you’ve ever smelled a flower, you’ve experienced aromatherapy and essential oils. Essential oils can be used internally (if labeled for this use) aromatically and topically.

Aromatic Essential Oils

Aromatically is simply smelling the essential oils. You can do this by using the oils in a diffuser, a personal inhaler, or by simply opening the bottle up and taking a sniff.

Topical Essential Oils

Topical use of essential oils is diluting the oils and applying them to the skin. Essential oils can be diluted in a carrier oil or unscented lotion.

You’ll want to ensure that you’re using high quality, 100% pure essential oils, free of fillers, to experience the maximum results.


How do essential oils affect emotions?

When we smell an essential oil, we have what’s called an olfactory response. The essential oil travels through the olfactory system and reaches the limbic part of the brain. The limbic area of the brain is thought to be one of the oldest parts of the brain and has a direct connection with emotions and memory. It stands to reason then, that using an essential oil that is calming and relaxing can have very positive benefits when dealing with anxiety and depression.

In addition, lipid soluble substances, such as essential oils, can cross the blood brain barrier and produce rapid effects in the brain. There is much research linking the effects of essential oils to producing calming, feel-good, neurotransmitters in the brain.


My suggestion is to use any oil or blend, that bolsters confidence, and a sense of self to the person with the phobia. A few come to mind, and I have listed them in my preference order.

The location for application of each of these oils can be found in the essential oils reference book.

* Valor oil blend - To gain emotional strength and bring the body into balance.

* Acceptance oil blend - reset negative and emotional thought patterns.

* Gentle Baby oil blend - To nurture the Gentle Baby within all of us. Brings a moment of peace when used aromatically

* Peace & Calming oil blend - To bring us into a state of peace within ourselves, and to calm oneself from external forces.

* Release - To release that which seems to hold us back. Has a powerful aroma that lulls the mind into a sense of comfort

* Trauma Life-  Can be diffused during times of difficulty or grief for a calming atmosphere

* White Angelica oil blend - To protect our aura, from external forces and entities that work to rob us of our energy, to enable us to be strong and feel protected.

Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for.
