cypress essential oil...
This was one of the first essential oils I tried for my emotions. I was tapering for my first hundred-miler and so scared. I felt stuck and the expectation to control my race was such a burden. I knew I needed to let go and be in the flow of the journey. Sans perfection. Being alive in the moment of a start line and moving through struggle and pain and all-that-which-goes-wrong in an ultra. I applied 2 to 3 drops over my kidneys. Added 3 drops to my bath. And diffused the oil in my office.
