Hi,
I know this has nothing to do with Essential oils but when I was in grief over losing my two brothers, a friend of mine gave me a reiki treatment, it did help and I also had a good night sleep thanks to it.
But on the oils, maybe lavender would help to claim,and I also heard that Rose is a good one for grief.

Hi, yes, it's Rose Otto that you want.

It's expensive, about £20-25 for 2ml, but it's the oil for grief.

Hi, it's not an oil but in Homeopathy Ignatia 200c is the remedy for grief. I found it helped me. It's worth a try.

Yes, Ignatia is the remedy which helps with grief 9 times out of 10 (maybe more!). The potency (200c was suggested and this could easily be right)depends on your state, when the grief happened and what your symptoms are. The remedy doesn't take away the feelings, but it seems to allow you to cope with them - ie it will free you from being enveloped in grief and unable to do anything - also, it can often 'release' a fixed grief state which has been going on for years. Ignatia would certainly be the first remedy I would think of, without knowing any other details.

Hi Trinityx

When studying Aromatherapy, our tutor recommended Benzoin for grief. She called it a 'warm blanket to dry the tears' or something like that.

Patricia Davis A - Z says:

"It combines well with Rose, and I can recall being greatly helped through several crises in my own life by receiving massage with this blend"

Valerie Ann Worwood in her book Fragrant Mind recommends it for Bereavement also for sorrow in the following synergy - 1 part Benzoin, two parts Frankincense and 3 parts Sandalwood.

Hope this is of some help!

Love and Light

Hi,

You may have to order the 200c as not all chemists will carry it. Mine does but they have a very good stock of Homeopathic Remedies - better that average. If you go to this link, they'll post it out to you very quickly, I can recomend them www.freemans.uk.com They manufacture the remedies and stock a lot of the chemists.

Good luck
Muriel
