Chapter 1: Essential Oils for Emotional Healing and Regulation

Understanding the Effects of Trauma

Trauma can have a profound impact on a child's emotional and behavioral development. Essential oils, such as lavender, frankincense, and chamomile, have calming and soothing properties that can help regulate emotions, reduce anxiety, and promote a sense of safety.

Addressing Anger and Aggression

Foster and adopted children may experience anger and aggression as a result of past experiences. Essential oils like bergamot, ylang-ylang, and vetiver can help balance emotions, promote emotional expression, and reduce irritability.

Establishing a strong bond with a foster or adopted child is crucial for their healthy development. Essential oils like rose, jasmine, and orange can create a warm and inviting atmosphere, fostering a sense of trust and connection.
