Are you one of those people who have tried everything out there to lose weight and have not found something that works for you? Well, this might be just what you are looking for.
Along with changes to your lifestyle, eating habits and your
approach to food, Aromatherapy can play a part in helping you to lose weight.
Research has been done with aromatherapy, putting your sense of smell into
action to help suppress your appetite.
If you inhale a strong spicy or food-related fragrance
for at least five minutes before you eat you can suppress your appetite. The
problem is, that if you inhale that fragrance for less than five minutes before
eating you will actually increase your appetite.
Suppressing Your Appetite
To help you suppress your appetite create an aromatherapy
blend that you can put on a tissue. Place the tissue in a shirt pocket or in
your bra. If you are someone that tends to graze or snack throughout the day
this will help keep that at bay. You only need three drops of each aromatherapy
oils you choose to use. Use up to 3 oils at a time on the one tissue, and
inhale it as required.
Best oils to choose
Some of the oils that have the most effect on appetite
suppression include Grapefruit, Vanilla, Benzoin, Peppermint, Cinnamon, Clove,
Fennel, Lemon, Marjoram, Orange, Mandarin, Ginger and Black Pepper. If you find
oils that remind you of the foods you like to eat it will make them more
effective. For me I like the sweet stuff, such as lollies, biscuits and
chocolate, so I would use oils such as Vanilla, Cinnamon, Grapefruit or Orange
on my tissue. Using this along with a healthy diet and exercise will help you
see results.
Losing centimetres and reducing
Cellulite
If you are looking to reduce your centimetres and
cellulite then these aromatherapy oils can help you with that as well. Use up
to three of these essential oils - Rosemary, Grapefruit, Juniper, Angelica,
Cypress, Lemon, Bergamot in 20mls of a carrier oil such as sweet almond oil.
Massage yourself in the areas you want to focus on such as your legs, hips and
thighs. Massage vigorously using plenty of percussion movements, like hacking
and cupping. If you do this daily you will see inch loss in about six weeks. If
you find you have an increased urge to urinate it means the blend is working.
Remember to drink plenty of water to help your body remove any toxins.
Motivation
Sometimes finding the energy to actually show up at the
gym is one of the hardest parts of dieting. The essential oils Frankincense,
Grapefruit, Juniper, Ginger, Peppermint will help to improve your state of mind
and get you moving.
Emotional Eating

when things go well, eat if you are bored or stop eating if you are very unhappy,
then you emotionally eat. If you know you do this, then you need to tackle these
habits too. Try any of the following essential oils to help you break any
habits you have developed as a result of emotional eating. Lemongrass, Melissa,
