Three Ways Adding Essential Oils to Your Fitness Routine Will Help You Level Up!

Fitness and essential oils go together like peanut butter and jelly. So, let me show you how they can help you get into and even better routine!

1. EOs Get You In The Mood

SO much is tied to our sense of smell, other than making food super enjoyable!  Smell is the only sense that is linked directly to our brain.  Think about it, when you smell apple pie, your emotions take you right to the fall and apple picking.  (At least they do for my New Yorker heart!) 

Essential oils have the ability to improve your mood, help you to focus, take the edge off and so much more.  For example, when was the last time you were angry while eating an orange? The zest from citrus fruit is extremely uplifting and can help you find joy in situations you might not love. Try it!

2. EOs Can Help Improve Your Performance

​​Airways- Who here has trouble getting enough air in while you exercise? I know I often do. Sometimes that’s a deeper issue but most of the time a dab of Breathe blend, peppermint, or eucalyptus will help you open up your airways and feel SO much more comfortable. I especially like to have a Breathe lozenge on humid days to power through my exercise routine.

3. EOs Can Speed Up Your Recovery

Spasms? Lemongrass will knock them out.  

Soreness? Deep Blue blend will ease it away. Too tense after a workout? Try the soothing relief of lavender. You will be SO happy you did.

​Get sick easily? Try using OnGuard immune support blend after every workout to protect yourself from the germs that surround us all.  This is especially important if you are just starting a new routine as immediately post exercise your immune system is actually depressed for a little while before it gets used to the stress of exercise and up-regulates giving you a much more robust system!

I could go on forever, these little bottles have saved me from SO much stress and pain (including from my broken foot and severely sprained ankle!) but I’ll end here.

As always, I’m here if you have any questions!

Oh! And if you’re looking for a personal trainer in Miami that’s where you’ll find me! Otherwise I’ll see you over zoom!

​Be well,
