7 – Crown chakra
This is our connection to others and to the world outside of ourselves. With this we greet the divine in everyone. When this chakra is open we see ourselves in others, we experience without prejudice. We are brought knowledge and wisdom and an understanding that promotes peace and a spiritual connection. We are better at manifesting desires.
If this chakra is closed, we are probably rigid in our impressions. We likely feel unaware of our own spirituality as well as that of others. We may have low energy, feel depressed and isolated and generally anxious and worried. We may have a negative feeling about our self and feel inefficient and forgetful. Physical problems can be related to the bladder and cramping.
Essential oils for opening the crown chakra are benzoin, cistus, frankincense, myrrh, sandalwood, spruce, angelica, bois de rose, opopanax, lavenders, spikenard, rose, ravensara, basil and rosemary.
I grew up across the street from the Village Sauna and up the hill from the American River in Fair Oaks, California. Native plants and
salves and tinctures were ever present. Victoria Edwards was a massage therapist at the Sauna and lived next door to us on Harmony Hill.
Her handmade massage blends of the 70’s grew into Leydet Aromatics, a world-wide supplier of essential oils and aromatherapy supplies
recognized for quality and customer service. I began working for Leydet in 1995, years of focused learning and growth followed. When Victoria
began a sabbatical in Southern France in 2004, there became a need for a restructuring of the business that she had built. Out of this, Emily’s
Oils and Essentials was born; a company dedicated to continuing the legacy of Leydet by serving customers in the spirit of healing and the
rightful use of plants. I intend to provide a seamless transition for loyal Leydet customers and to continue to introduce people to the sensory
pleasures and healing properties of nature’s gifts
