STEP 3 – RESPIRATORY BLEND

broken image

Whether you’re running a marathon, jumping on the trampoline with the kids, or performing stretching exercises, one thing holds true—breathing is vital.

Breathing correctly can make or break a workout, race, or leisure activity. Think back to that day when you had to stop mid-jog because of an uncomfortable stitch in your side. Or the time you felt light-headed while lifting weights and realized you’d been holding your breath as you worked out!

It’s clear that breathing is extremely important. Without breathing, we can’t get oxygen flowing throughout the body. Without oxygen, we can’t move, think, reason, or even live.

So, what happens when we can’t get the oxygen our body needs to function into our respiratory system?

For one thing, our athletic performance suffers. But what can you do?

The RESPIRATORY BLEND ~ AKA BREATHE helps maintain feelings of open airways and clear, easy breathing. This blend can be used aromatically or topically and contains Eucalyptus, Peppermint, Laurel, Lemon, Melaleuca, Cardamom, Ravintsara, and Ravensara oils.

This is a great blend for routine topical application to the chest before exercise. You’ll feel your sinuses, airways, and chest open up. When you feel you can breathe deeply and easily, it will make breathing correctly for your activity that much easier.

The RESPIRATORY BLEND also helps minimize the effects of seasonal and environmental threats. After all, you can’t interrupt your training schedule just because a certain type of pollen is in the air.

This blend can help you get a good night’s sleep, too, which is important since rest is another component vital to athletic performance. Diffusing at night can help promote a positive sleeping environment.

PRACTICAL USES

• Diffuse, inhale directly from palms, or rub on chest or feet when seasonal and environmental threats are high.

• Use when outdoors to minimize the effects of seasonal threats.

• Diffuse at bedtime for a restful environment.
