Love the Copaiba Essential Oil from doTerra because…

Copaiba essential oil is derived from the resin of the copaiba tree which can grow upwards of more than 100 feet and can be found in tropical South America.
Copaiba oil is widely used in cosmetic products including soaps, creams, lotions, and perfumes. Since the 16th century, copaiba essential oil has been utilized in traditional health practices by the natives of north and northeastern Brazil.
Similar to Black Pepper essential oil, Copaiba can help soothe anxious feelings and it can be applied to the skin to promote a clear, smooth complexion.
Taken internally, Copaiba essential oil supports the health of the cardiovascular, immune, digestive, nervous, and respiratory systems.*
Although Copaiba does not contain psychoactive cannabinoids, the main component caryophyllene may be neuroprotective and have cardiovascular and immune benefits.* It’s also a powerful antioxidant that promotes immune health.*

Uses

Add 1 to 2 drops to water, juice, or tea to support the health of the cardiovascular, immune, digestive, nervous, and respiratory system.*
Provides antioxidant support when ingested.*
Take internally to help soothe and calm the nervous system.*
Apply topically combined with a carrier oil or a facial moisturizer to help keep skin clean and clear, and to help reduce the appearance of blemishes.

Yoga Frequently Asked Questions – by Gail Pickens-Barger

Frequently Asked Questions about Yoga

Question: Do I have to tie myself in a knot to do Yoga? Answer: Certainly no. The goal of Yoga , is not to do the head stand or the lotus pose but to “Quiet the distractions of the mind.” Something that most Westerners could certainly benefit from. The Yoga poses that you use should be selected to fit your individual needs based on your physical and mental condition , as well as your age.

Question: What are some of the benefits of Yoga? Answer: Perhaps the first and most profound benefit that most Westerners notice is stress reduction. The next benefit that all physicians support is circulation. Although Hatha Yoga does improve your flexibility, most people are not aware that Yoga poses are also good for strength. The whole idea is a balance of strength and flexibility. Once the system comes closer to balance, most practitioners notice an increase in vitality and an overall sense of well-being. The benefits of Yoga do not occur overnight but the results are lasting.

Question: Is Yoga safe? Answer: In most cases yes. However, if you select the wrong level of difficulty in a large group class and have some physical limitations, you could have some problems. It is very important to be sure you are in the right class and inform the instructor of any potential problems. Look for Beginners classes and private instruction, and chair yoga classes and private instruction.

Question: How do I find the right place to take a Yoga class? Answer: Since the Golden Triangle has so many places that teach Yoga, it is advisable to try and compare several places. Most important is, which place has the overall environment that makes you feel most comfortable. There are currently no city, state or federal guidelines for Yoga. There is a very wide spectrum of environments in Yoga classes. It is almost amusing. The biggest differences are between the physical difficulty levels of the classes. You need to decide if you want your Yoga class to be a work-out, and work-in, or some where in-between. A good Yoga class should incorporate the concept of body, breath and mind. In no case should you allow someone to push or intimidate you into doing something that does not feel intuitively right. I have a list of other yoga classes in the area. You may contact me for the list at yogawithgaileee@gmail.com.

Question: How often should I go to a Yoga class? Answer: Ideally, at least two or three times per week. Some people keep their life on track and make some progress by coming once a week, and many people get really motivated by Yoga and come everyday. It depends on the individual and his or her needs.

Question: Is Yoga Co-ed? Answer: Yes, on the average there are more women in Yoga classes than men; however, some of the more physical Yoga classes have an almost equal ratio.

Question: How much does Yoga cost? Answer: The least expensive Yoga classes are available at adult schools and community centers. In the Golden Triangle area, as low as $5 - $10, $14, $25 per class in a course. Or, your health club may include Yoga in the package. However, most Yoga centers average around $10 - $20 a class in a series. A one-time drop-in fee varies widely. Many schools offer the first class free, some charge up to $25. You can do research by using the internet and the phone.

Question: What do you wear to a Yoga class? Answer: There is a wide variety of clothing worn in Yoga classes, depending on how physical the class is and the temperature of the room. Women often wear leotards, shorts or sweats. Men often wear shorts or sweats. However, Yoga clothing, like that of other fitness classes, is also a personal expression.

Question: How long should a Yoga class be? Answer: The length of a Yoga class varies from 45 minutes to one and a half hours. Health clubs and corporate classes are usually close to one hour.

Question: What is Yoga? Answer: Yoga is a profound system of holistic health which originated in India over 5,000 years ago. It was first put into written form as the Yoga Sutra. The author was Patanjali (pronounced pa-tan-ja-li). Since the original work was in Sanskrit, there are many translations and interpretations. Yoga is defined in the sutras as having eight limbs or branches. It is the third limb “Asana” (pronounced a-sana-a), which refers to postures or Yoga poses that most people perceive as Yoga. The study of asana and physical culture is called Hatha Yoga, (pronounced Ha-ta with a soft T). There are possibly more people doing Hatha Yoga now in the state of California than in the entire country of India.

Question: What is Yoga Therapy? Answer: A simple answer is that Yoga Therapy is usually offered one on one for people that are not able to participate in a regular group class. Some of the many ailments successfully treated with Yoga Therapy are: lower and upper back problems, hypertension and heart disease, asthma and diabetes. I teach yoga for those with Osteopenia / Osteoporosis, Low Back Challenges, Yoga for Better Sleep.
