New line of blends to balance your 5 elements!

“We are designed in & out to realize our natural abilities to heal.”

That beautiful quote is by Aromahead graduate Lindsay Luker. It reflects a core understanding here at Aromahead: the body is wise and essential oils can support its healing processes.

Lindsay created a new line of blends that reflect this understanding: Essential Elements, five blends inspired by the elements of nature and yoga mudras.

Mudras are hand gestures that encourage energy to flow through the body in different ways. They harmonize the body’s energies, helping to keep your entire being in a state of health and balance.

Are your 5 elements balanced?

Here are the five mudras/elements that inspired Lindsay’s new products! Do you have them balanced in your life?

AGNI fires up your concentration and lights up your whole being! Motivation and creativity blaze throughout the day.

VAYU | AIR

VAYU allows you to exhale deeply, releasing fears and worries so you can float in the freedom of the present moment.

AKASH | SPACE

AKASH supports your soul’s elevation to its highest truth. It expands your wisdom and connects you to the rhythms of your universe.

PRITHVI | EARTH

PRITHVI helps you rest. It eases your mind, restores your body, and opens lines of communication between you and your dreams.

JALA | WATER

JALA helps you go with the flow, staying connected to your intuition so you can move confidently through the world.

Lindsay’s Essential Elements line includes five signature scents named after the mudras. Each one is available as a lotion, roll-on, and room spray. They’re all handmade with essential oils and carriers from Aromatics International (so the products are all certified organic, organically grown, or wildcrafted). 

I was honored to interview Lindsay about her work as an aromatherapist. I wanted to share some of our conversations with you! 

Do you think most people have the 5 elements balanced in their lives?

People fluctuate around homeostasis, but I believe no one is ever perfectly balanced. Think of a day when you couldn’t shake irritation, or days when you couldn’t complete thoughts, days when your digestion was off, or when you were extremely happy!

I find a dedicated yoga practice and regular use of

essential oils guides my elements to a fairly balanced state.

You’re an optometrist, yoga instructor, and a student of biology, science, and medicine. What first attracted you to aromatherapy?

I was in a yoga class with an incredible teacher. 

During the savasana (resting pose) at the end of class, she applied a blend of essential oils to my forehead, neck, and shoulders. I remember feeling as though I floated home after class. As though my feet never touched the ground. 

I couldn’t pinpoint why, but I knew it had to do with the aromas. 

Amazing! And what inspired you to use aromatherapy professionally?

The relationship between biology and soul 

has always been a mystery to me.

That a human body made of matter can create 

and react to unseen thought blows my mind.

As volatile [aromatic] molecules enter our nose and reach various parts of our brain, we are immediately changed. Profound chains of reactions can positively affect the way we remember and learn, our appetite and sleep, and our emotions and mental state of being. 

What’s your favorite thing about working with clients?

My favorite thing is the guilt I often feel when they pay me! I learn more about life from them than I think I could ever teach them. The ever growing humility inspires me.

I have one last question! If you could only keep ONE of your new products in your pocket all day, what would it be?

You’re offering some tough questions! 

Well, I’m not sure it would fit in my pocket, but my instinctual answer is the PRIVTHI | EARTH Lotion. It’s created with Lavender, Cedarwood, and Vetiver essential oils. It’s also made with apricot oil, grapeseed oil, aloe vera, and vitamin E in the lotion. So it’s deeply nourishing for the skin, and the aromas are deeply nourishing for the mind.
