Albert Einstein said it best when he said: “Everything is energy.” It’s true, we literally live in a sea of vibration! Colour, sound, smell & taste all are represented by bands of frequency. All our senses (except smell) receive sensory data from the environment which is transferred through the nervous system to the brain. At the brain level, data is interpreted based on our beliefs.

The sense of smell is received by the receptors in the nose and that signal is transferred to the olfactory bulb which is part of the limbic brain. Because smell goes directly to the brain, it is the brain’s direct link to the environment. Everything is energy, everything has its own signature frequency, be it colour, aroma, sound, food, thoughts... And these frequencies are multidimensional.

Even, and most importantly, water has its own frequency depending on where it comes from, how it is treated, what is said to it.  Dr Emoto demonstrated time and again that the frequency of water can be changed easily with the use of words and feelings.  Remember that the human body is made up of around 80% water, we can change our frequency easily with thoughts and substances. 

At the same time, all dis-ease in the human body has a frequency. The key is to match the frequency of that which you are attempting to heal, with a substance that emits a frequency in the correct direction of healing for you.  It sounds simple, yet remembering that every part of the human body has a different frequency, if the body were to be bombarded with just one frequency in the effort to heal an illness in one part of the body, you may well cause disease in another if not applied in a targeted manner. One way to segregate the body to approximate frequency zones is using a Chakra system, I use the Pranic Healing chakra system in my work.  In my book “Natural Prescriptions” I give list of essential oils which work best using the PH Chakra system.  

As an example, let’s look at the Throat Chakra and the essential oils associated with it. 

The Throat chakra controls and is responsible for the Thyroid, Voice box, Trachea, Parathyroid, Lymphatics, Mouth, Saliva Glands, Oesophagus, Carotid Arteries & Shoulders. 

Useful essential oils for this area of the body include Angelica, Lavender, Sandalwood, Neroli, Sage, Frankincense, Orange, Basil, Bergamot, German Chamomile, Cypress, Menthol, Peppermint, Spearmint, Cinnamon, Wintergreen, Petitgrain, Immortelle, Manuka, Kunzea, Cumin. 

Energetically this chakra is responsible for expression, communication, higher creativity & knowledge and is the “pressure relief valve” for the entire energy body.  It is the abyss and is referred to as Daath in the Kabalistic tree.  It is the bridge between your higher and lower self.  Its colours are blue, violet and green.  When other colours are introduced into the throat chakra from other chakras in the body (via thoughts or actions) imbalances to health can occur. A congested solar plexus could introduce incorrect frequency to the throat chakra manifesting an illness such as hyperthyroidism.  Depletion of the sex chakra will cause the throat chakra to become partially depleted perhaps creating an illness such as hypothyroidism. 

These imbalances can be gently corrected energetically with essential oils applied (correctly diluted) to the throat area (but of course you can see other chakras would need correction also from these simple examples), and of course you could layer the healing with the use of sound, colour and other dimensions of frequency. 

How do you choose which essential oil to use?  You let your body choose. Which appeals to you, smell them, let your body decide.  Just as animals know which herb to eat to make themselves feel better, so we have the ability to do the same.  Your body knows what frequency feels best.
