Do you have aches and pains? Ongoing pain is one of the leading causes of sadness, hopelessness and feelings of despair. When we are in constant pain is wears out spirit down and actually increases our cortisol which leads to many diseases.

I was diagnosed with an autoimmune diseases about 17 years ago that attacks my joints and causes pain nearly every day. I also have had multiple hip surgeries and my job as an adaptive yoga teacher requires so much from my body. Basically, I hurt most days somewhere in my body.

Of all the blends I have found this one to be one of my favorites. In fact, marjoram is my number one pain relieving oil. the relief I get along with the mood support gets me through the hardest of days.

Here is my favorite blend:

10 drops frankincense

10 drops lemongrass

10 drops marjoram

Top off with fractionated coconut oil and apply up to every 30 minutes to affected area.
