Hyssop - The Holy Herb

Hyssop - hyssopus officinalis is a bushy perennial shrub with small linear leaves and small clumping flowers. These flowers are very aromatic and attract swarms of bees and butterflies. It is from the Lamiaceae family.

Hyssop is a herb that is referenced 12 times in the bible. The chemical constituents that make up the essential oil of Hyssop are quite complex. A medicinal therapeutic grade  consists of 48% Ketones, which exert a very powerful action on body systems and are potentially toxic compounds that should be used in VERY small amounts; 30% Monoterpenes which are hostile to microbes and reprogram cells with correct information; 8% Sesquiterpenes which are oxygenating, mood elevating and can deprogram miswritten and garbled codes in the DNA; and lastly 4% Phenols which are antiseptic, cleanse receptor sites and detoxify our bodies.

Ancient uses of Hyssop include spiritual cleansing, purification from sins, help in focusing your mind in meditation, and expelling of evil spirits. During Passover, the Israelites stuck the post and lintels of their doorways with a branch of hyssop as protection.

Hyssop is used today to relieve anxiety, arthritis, asthma, respiratory infections, parasites, sore throats, cuts and wounds. It metabolizes fats, increases perspiration, detoxifying and emotionally balancing. The monoterpenes reprogram miswritten information in the DNA and thus promoting permanent healing at a cellular level.

Hyssop is a quintessential cleanser, enabling a clarity of spirit. It purifies and cleanses, awakening closed hearts and minds, all which is needed for the ultimate oneness with the Universe.

Integrative Wellness with Aromatherapy

I am here today to tell you about essential oils and how for hundreds of years, they have been used successfully for healing and deserve serious consideration as a current therapeutic option.

Briefly, the stance of aromatherapy as an alternative medicine in the present social and cultural landscape can be applied as a self care method, returning the power to the patient, lessening the dependency on the authority of the medical establishment.

With a population growing impatient with the expense and complexity of managed health care - it is time to return medicine to our communities.  The warlike fighting of disease is an expression of masculinity along with the creation of the "health care" system of the last 50+ years. Let's explore the realms of creatively solving problems of life through the feminine; our first mother - Earth.

God has laid before us a plethora of healing plants. In the garden of Eden, he provided absolutely everything we will ever need to keep ourselves well. To maintain harmony with nature and to prevent illness, we can take that first step by boosting our immune systems with essential oils.  These are the life blood of a plant and within each drop of essential oil are tiny molecules that can penetrate into every cell, administering healing therapy at the most fundamental levels of our bodies.

The medicines manufactured by man cannot compare with the healing capabilities of essential oils. Man-made pharmaceuticals lack the life force, the intelligence imbued by God and the vibrational energy found in healing oils. The point here is that essential oils are a gift from God to us, his children. They are special. They have been a gift too long ignored and misunderstood. The time is now to correct these misunderstandings and bring the art of aromatherapy back into the uses for which God intended.
