The Oil of Honoring the Body
Grapefruit is often used as an appetite suppressant, but it has often been overused in strict dietary and weight loss programs.
The reason this oil helps curb emotional eating is because it actually encourages a positive relationship with one’s physical body based on love, tolerance and acceptance.

Back to our emotional side. Learn to love your body by taking care of it daily. Appreciate your body temple. Allow yourself to be a conduit for loving and teaching others. Grapefruit encourages integrity by respecting one’s physical needs. Grapefruit also assists in listening to the body’s true physical needs and impulses.
As a woman takes ownership of her feelings and gets the help needed in addressing them, she no longer finds it necessary to hide her feelings behind food, body abuse, strict regiments, eating disorders or other forms of addiction.
All is well as you inhale your Grapefruit oil and use it for healthy alignment of body, mind and spirit. Add this oil as a tool in your alternative and natural health care tool box.
