Elevate Your Practice: Aromatherapy for Deep Meditation
Aromatherapy is a potent tool to deepen and enhance the meditation experience. Throughout history, spiritual adepts have used plant oils to help raise their vibrations and prepare for their spiritual practices. Essential oils and crystals help the energy centers (chakras) decontaminate and purify rampant thought forms in the energy information field (aura). It can sometimes be a battle to quiet the mind to experience stillness—oils can be the bridge to silence.
Essential Oils for Spiritual Preparation
Specific oils target specific energy centers to clear blockages and prepare the physical and energy bodies for higher frequencies.
- Sandalwood: Used for thousands of years for its spiritual effects. Inhaling it or applying a drop to the ajna (between the eyebrows), chest, or under the nostrils is excellent for preparation.
- Spikenard: Highly recommended for grounding and purification. Applying spikenard oil to the feet before meditation cleanses them energetically.
Insight: When the feet are energetically clean, you can move easily in the inner world (like Hermes with winged feet). Dirty energy in the feet anchors you to the earth, which can manifest in dreams as being unable to fly or take off.
- Lavender: Apply to the front and back solar plexus, ajna, and meng mein energy centers to energetically purify them.
- Blue Chamomile: Known for super relaxation. It helps rapidly shrink the solar plexus energy center (often the seat of stress) and helps open the forehead energy center.
- Rose: Applying two drops to the ajna and front and back solar plexus helps relax the mind for deeper meditation.
- Clairvoyance Oil: Using one drop of Pranic Lifestyle’s Clairvoyance Oil on the forehead energy center can help expand consciousness.

4. The "Rhythmic Breathing" Anointing
- Apply one drop of Jasmine oil on the forehead and the crown.

During & After Meditation
Clearing Cords
Before you begin, it is crucial to cut negative connections attached to your energy centers, internal organs, and the sides of the body.
- Spray Technique: Mix 30 drops of Lavender oil with 4 oz of vodka (or use Ananda Spray). Spray the energy centers sideways to disintegrate negative connections.
- Visualization: You can also visualize using a crystal knife to slice away anger cords or negative threads from the chakras and bottoms of the feet.
Rooting After Meditation
After a deep session, you may feel "spacey" or ungrounded. To function in the physical world and protect your finances, you must re-root.
- Apply 2 drops of Patchouli, Rosemary, or Prosperity/Money Oil to the bottoms of the feet immediately after finishing your meditation.
