Essential Oils for Yoga class
As a Yoga Teacher and Aromatherapist I can offer some sound essential oil advice for use in a yoga class. Whether it's Power Vinyasa Flow or Yin + Reiki there is an oil to top off the practice with.
Quinntessentials products are already pre-dilluted in most cases so you can start utilizing them in class right away. I will go over the Room & Body Sprays that are the easiest to utilize for a group setting. I recommend using a spray in the beginning, middle, or end of the class when you have a moment to get to everyone as they are lying on their backs. In Yin yoga a great time would be supported bridge pose or any supine twist. There's always time in Savasana if you're in a fast paced Vinyasa class.
Your students will be getting the uplifting vibration of the essential oils that are still working with them long after class ends. It is another layer of healing benefits for your student to receive and for you to provide as an extra touch. It's also great to use the essential oils with your class theme if you have one. See some ideas below:
Smudge Ritual Spray: great for a cleansing theme and releasing old energy that no longer serves us.
Lemongrass: to get us in touch with gratitude. What makes us truly happy?
Sunshine Spray: Uplifting for depression and rainy day blues. A reminder to think positively
Lavender: For balance, soothing, calm, awakening intuition, and deep meditative relaxation
Eucalyptus: to cleanse & purify the air we breathe, for cleansing the room before & after yoga
Tea Rose: Grounding, spicy, earthy, happy, & uplifting. A great scent for Fall or Holiday.
Basil Bliss: to rejuvenate the senses and uplift the spirits
Moonlight Spray: Palo Santo is said to help us cleanse and purify while inviting blessings.Magical
Finally, there's an entire line of Chakra roll-on oils to help support your chakra themed classes. Check them out and try any of them in your special classes and workshops. I hope the Quinntessentials products help support your teachings.
Namaste,
