Two nights ago I had a dream that I forgot about until last night. In the dream I was frantically dabbing essential oils of all kinds all over myself. I was handed an essential oil by someone to use. I was encouraged to use it generously. I read the name of the oil several times, repeating it to myself with the intention of remembering it.
The oil I was given was Ylang Ylang. I do not own this essential oil and am not very familiar with it, but my research indicates it is the best essential oil for healing the heart and getting back in touch with one’s inner child. It helps to release bottled up and buried emotions smoothly while nurturing the heart. It also reminds one that joy can be recovered by allowing the heart to feel all emotion fully.
Talk about the perfect message and oil for me right now!
Since I do not own this oil, I searched my oil blends to see if any contained this oil. I found that my most favorite oil blend – Serenity – contains Ylang Ylang. It is said that we are drawn to oils that we most need. This is definitely true for me as I have used more Serenity oil than any other oil I own. lol
Here is the DoTERRA information page for Ylang Ylang for those of you who are interested.

The doTERRA ylang-ylang essential oil is a complete distillation of the fragrant flowers. Many perfumes and essential oils are partial distillations, selecting one of the five separate distillations for their light, wafty, buttery, or deeper sensual qualities. doTERRA chooses a complete distillation so the fragrance and beneficial properties wonderfully layer and often stand out more in one way or another to each of us when we smell it. For me, the smell changes from time to time (from the same bottle) and it’s always wonderfully nurturing and heart-opening–sometimes in a rather blissful way.

I “met” a Ylang Ylang tree in Costa Rica. They grow there, as natives or planted. Walking through a damp garden with Ylang Ylang scent in the air is heavenly. It is an oil that blends well with others, like rose and lavender. Enjoy it.

Costa Rica is an experience for all the senses… and challenging as well in some regards.
