After the Storm: Creating a Soul-Healing Essential Oil Blend for the Survivors
11 Oct, 2024
Hello Everyone,
Like most Americans, I was dismayed this past week by the scenes of utter destruction and despair left in the wake of the hurricanes that, like malevolent mythological creatures, laid waste to populated areas throughout the South.
I observed the razed houses and heard distraught survivor’s plaintive descriptions of loss. Soul-level healing is the focus of my work with essential oils. Thus, I reflexively began to analyze the toll the storm and its aftermath had exacted upon those left to pick through the ruins for loved ones and remnants of what had instantly become their former lives.
In Spiritual PhytoEssencing practice, one of the first things we do in the process of oil selection for a given customized blend is boil down, to a set of recurrent themes, all the diverse formative circumstances and symptoms (emotional and physical) in a person’s life-history.
This rendering of a personal history down to recurrent, standout themes serves to organize the analysis of a large, unwieldy database of case information. In so doing, it makes the subsequent process of oil selection more cohesive and allows the blender to penetrate the outward expressions of disharmony and engage with the core psycho-spiritual disturbances from which those expressions arise.
As regards, the survivors of the violent storms that destroyed their homes and neighborhoods, uprooted their lives and may have killed one or more of their loved ones, we can concentrate on four central themes: insecurity relative to the home, grief, crisis of faith and storms.
In this article from 2011, I have discussed four essential oils (cedarwood, cypress, rosemary and rhododendron) that are particularly relevant in reference to these themes.
My goal is to demonstrate how to prepare a blend that may prove of good service in providing deep-level for the survivors of the recent hurricane as they go about piecing their lives back together. You can find the formula that I have constructed that can serve as a basic guideline. The actual number of drops will vary from blender to blender because everyone is working with different oils (oils will vary in quality and soul essence according to where and how they were grown, how they have been handled and stored, etc.). Also, each blender, having a singular soul, develops a unique soul-to-relation with the oils. Nevertheless, you will find the ratios I have set out to be usefully orienting.
My hope of course is that some of you who are reading this, who also happen to live near the storm-impacted areas, or have friends or relatives that do, will prepare this blend and share it with those for whom it may prove to be a unique source of solace and strength.
Remember to eat healthfully, and exercise and meditate daily. Slow and deepen your breathing. Move through daily life mindfully. Self-discipline is one of the primary factors in achieving wellness and attaining wholeness of being.
I hope you take this opportunity to learn from me and sign up today to receive the invitation for the next class. The member zone will give you access to several resources and video classes to expand your knowledge and prepare some powerful remedies too. To join my regular classes, simply sign up for the NHSS/SPE Membership Program and you will receive a link to our next Zoom class along with the student and practitioners newsletter.
Please feel free to write to me if you have any questions. I hope to see you in class soon!

Essential Oil Blending, Surrounding Essence Alchemy Technique and Copaiba Oil
The various alchemy techniques used in Spiritual PhytoEssencing blending serve as a bridge between the physical and the metaphysical, the tangible and the intangible, heaven and Earth. Utilizing these techniques elevates a custom blend out of the realm of the ordinary and potentiates its ability to affect fundamental shifts in a person’s relationship with the inner and outer worlds. In this article, I describe the Surrounding Essence technique, one of the primary alchemy techniques that I have developed for Spiritual PhytoEssencing blending
One of the most basic and efficient measures for helping to ameliorate chronic constipation and inflammation of the stomach and intestines is this simple Morning Cool-Water G.I. Tract Reviver. This invaluable technique may also prove of good service in cases of chronic indigestion due to atony (lack of tone and strength) of the muscles of the stomach and intestines.
The carrot is an invaluable food and healing substance. Carrots have low glycemic index scores although they were originally, and incorrectly, reported as having a high glycemic index score.
Thanks to everyone who registered and attended the PEMF Webinar on Equinox Sunday. I find have found PEMF therapy to be very balancing, relaxing and supportive of recovery power. Many have reported improved sleep quality, better cognitive functions, reduced pain levels and a general feeling of better mind/body/spirit integration.
The focus of the webinar was on the home use of the high-intensity pulsed electromagnetic field machine. Over the course of a few months, I developed some very unique, easy-to-do protocols wherein I have adapted certain aspects of healing systems such as the Chakra System, early 20th century chiropractic and osteopathy, Chapman's Neuro-Lymphatic Reflexes, Tom Tam Healing System, Dr. Richard Tan's Balance Method, Dr. Reinhardt Voll's electroacupuncture, etc. to this PEMF therapy device.
High-intensity pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy has shown benefits for recovery, regeneration and healing various disorders in bones, cartilages and muscles, and also increases the levels of ATP in the body allowing the body to naturally heal itself. Additionally, PEMF is non-invasive, non-thermal, safe and easy to apply.
We covered the following topics:
The Human Being as a Bio-Electromagnetic Organism
PEMF Therapy and Rootedness
Potential Benefits of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy
The Mitochondria & PEMF
Electromagnetic fields and Body Cells
Hi-Tech Hi-Intensity PEMF Machine Review
Hi-Tech Hi-Intensity PEMF Machine Menu and Attachments

Both low-intensity and high-intensity units can provide distinct benefit. However, the benefits of the low-intensity devices are the product of cumulative use. In other words, regular use of a low-intensity unit will deliver a degree of immediate benefit, but their ability to exert a significant impact upon a deeply ingrained, inertial condition requires long-term, consistent use. In this way, the cumulative effects of the therapy sessions achieves a type of critical mass that, to some degree, overcomes the inertia of the case and propels it along a directional process toward deep-healing, rather than just transient amelioration of symptoms.
On the other hand, the Hi-Tech Hi-Intensity PEMF Machine, if properly and creatively employed can exert an immediately noticeable impact, even upon deeply ingrained states. With the Hi-Tech Hi-Intensity PEMF Machine, it is possible to experience an instant effect regarding symptoms such as deficient chi (vital force), fatigue, pain, restriction, mobility and range of motion issues. It also offers far greater potential for positive shifts in a depleted, dysregulating general state, and inertial, internal conditions from one session to the next.
