JUST A DROP OF EN-R-GEE

  • Has a lively, inspiring, powerful aroma that's a great way to start the day
  • The spicy-pine aroma hat can give you that natural boost when you need it most
  • Works as an aromatic pick-me-up in the afternoon
  • Helps pull us up from emotional exhaustion
  • Works well with other adrenal supporting oils like Nutmeg

En-R-Gee is a daily favorite for many reasons, but it is especially a favorite during times of stress. (Because stress and energy just might be related…) En-R-Gee has oils that are alerting and stimulating, help the physical body rebalance our adrenals, and help us release emotions that are weighing us down!

EN-R-GEE & THE ADRENALS The adrenal glands are small organs that sit on top of the kidneys. They maintain and boost our energy, kind of like a car shifting into first, second, and third gear as we go about our day. They also help our body survive during times of stress. Since many of us live in a state of constant stress, they wear down quickly.

Our adrenal glands aren't meant to always be firing. They are there to jump in when needed and not be running the whole show. But excessive caffeine, lack of sleep, emotional stress, demanding schedules, hormonal imbalance, diet, alcohol abuse, and always pushing ourselves to the max can damage the adrenals to cause them to fatigue. This pushes us into a ‘survival mode' both physically and emotionally.

  • Are you in survival mode?
  • Are you only giving yourself the leftovers?
  • Do you put off taking care of your body and mind?
  • Do you only pour out without nourishing yourself?

So many people are in survival mode. Hormones are out of whack and emotions are bottled up. Despite caring for those around them, they feel isolated. En-R-Gee can help us physically restore and nourish our adrenal system, release the emotion of isolation, and help instill a sense of connectedness.

  • Put some En-R-Gee on your wrists and in the diffuser while you journal or internally process. Write about what seems to zap the energy right out of you. Can you pinpoint the roots of what makes you exhausted, overwhelmed, full of dread, or frustrated about your day?
  • Next, start to write about the kind of person you dream of being. The attitudes, the priorities, the joy, whatever it is. Visualize it.
  • Continue daily, even if you don't get to journal. You can process this internally 24/7, the body knows how to work with whatever you give it!

We use these oils daily and in conjunction with supplements and good health habits. Oils are not a one time "quick fix"! Using them daily and consistently is when you will be able to see support and results!

EN-R-GEE & EMOTIONS En-R-Gee is also great for the emotion of Exhaustion – for feeling like you just don't have the oomph to do the things you really want to do. En-R-Gee can be a wonderful tool for helping our bodies catch up with what our minds and hearts want to do!

Every single one of the oils in this blend contain stimulating compounds to help energize our cells and wake them up! AND a couple are high in sesquiterpenes, which help with focus and clarity.

So if you are a go-getter, need more balance and energy, En-R-Gee can help you stay emotionally on track!

KEY INGREDIENTS

  • Idaho Balsam Fir: This woodsy, grounding oil has an empowering aroma that calms the mind and body to help us focus on what truly matters and work towards our goals
  • Nutmeg, Clove and Black Pepper: These spice oils have an energizing aroma that helps us stay alert and focused, plus these oils are helpful to the adrenal system which is often on overload when we are exhausted! Clove is especially high in antioxidants, which help to decrease physical damage to cells that often leaves us with no energy reserves.

KEY CONSTITUENTS Constituents are naturally occurring compounds in plants (and therefore essential oils) that give them specific health-supporting properties

  • Alpha-pinene: a powerful antioxidant, some studies have shown alpha-pinene to support the body through inflammation and to help calm the mind.
