Depression can be one of the most difficult challenges for anyone. And in today's world it can be more challenging than ever to stay positive and upbeat. Life is fast paced and we have many responsibilities such as raising families, household duties, working a job and for a lot of people, building a home business too. With all this can come feelings of being overwhelmed with so much to do that we just feel like throwing we are doing a juggling act. We feel as if we don't know if we are coming or going. No wonder we can easily get discouraged and depressed.
How do I know? Because it has happened to me in the past. And it makes it much harder if you are building a home business when you feel down.
This kind of depression can come out of nowhere fast and can SINK you just as fast.
What can you do…
I have been working from home now for over 7 years. In the beginning, I would listen to tapes of Jim Rohn, Napoleon Hill and others. It really helped me keep a positive attitude and more importantly it helped me keep going and not give up on what I loved. Our attitude is one of the few things that is totally ours and can never be taken away from us. Physical possessions can ALL be taken away tomorrow. But values and attitudes are ours forever!
How we think is really important in how successful we are. On the flip side of the coin however, is the fact that it's not always easy to stay positive. We all go through periods where we get depressed and discouraged. Fortunately, this is easier to deal with than other more serious depression issues.
One thing that has been a big help to me in keeping depression at bay is the use of Young Living Essential Oils. These organic essential oilsare nature's living energy or the life blood of plants. Their frequency or energy resonates with our own natural energy. Therefore, they have the ability to help the body energize, uplift, balance and renew itself. Very powerful indeed!
Essential Oils can be very useful tools for achieving your goals and dreams.
Have you ever felt like you just can't get started on the project or task that needs to be done? Do you find things on your to-do list that you keep avoiding? The essential oil blend of Motivation may just be what's needed. I use this blend to help me overcome procrastination and to get the job done. Use it to motivate yourself to exercise, to write that newsletter, work on your business, clean out the attic, or any job being put off. Keep a bottle by your bed for mornings when you would rather go back to sleep. I sometimes also use the En-R-Gee blend for that as well. I like to use these oils on my temples and on the sternum.
I always start my day with Valor, applying it to the bottom of my feet. If you have a fear of failure, lack or self-esteem or confidence in your abilities, try some Valor. Valor helps balance electrical energies within the body, giving courage and confidence. It also helps overcome fear and opposition. It brings a feeling of peace, relaxation and calmness which is absolutely wonderful if you are feeling overwhelmed.
Frankincense essential oil is another I use daily because it has the ability to lift you up from being down in the dumps. Also known as the Holy Anointing Oil, it is no wonder it increases your spiritual awareness. Just inhaling this wonderful oil makes me feel more grounded and able to take on the day.
Joy oil is another of my favorites because it has the frequency to bring joy and happiness to your heart. I apply a drop over my heart each morning, especially on dark dreary days. It helps to keep my spirits up! You can also wear as perfume. It does contain citrus oils, so be aware of that.
And of course the natural essential oil blend of Abundance. I can't be without this one! And the name itself says it all. It was created specifically to enhance the magnetic energy and create the Law of Attraction. I love wearing it as a perfume as well (also contains some citrus oils) and diffusing it. Try putting a few drops in cleaning water for your office or apply a bit on everything you mail for business. Many people have also used this blend to overcome depression.
There are several other essential oils to try as well including…
Highest Potential, Harmony, Magnify Your Purpose, White Angelica, Peace and Calming, and Lavender. Try a few and let me know your experiences. I would love to hear from you!
