Not only are we physical bodies, we are spirit, we are energy, we are a holistic unit that must operate on balance.<\/p>\n<p>It is when a body operates out of balance that the groundwork for diseases like cancer and many others can take hold.<\/p>\n<p>It is beyond the scope of this newsletter to discuss the many other more natural treatments that are available to those who face the battle of their lives. In researching this piece, I went to Google and typed in \u201cessential oils+cancer treatment\u201d and was boggled at the information contained there.<\/p>\n<p>Essential oils can be used during conventional allopathic treatments, though some physicians may prefer you do not. Ultimately the choice must be yours. Check out our recipe section for more ideas. Some oils that have been used on the skin before radiation treatments are Niaouli, Tea tree, Cajaput and Lavender (blended into all natural aloe vera taken straight from the plant is best as it is healing and won\u2019t leave the skin greasy).<\/p>\n<p>If you or someone you love is dealing with cancer try not to lose faith. Sometimes faith and a positive attitude can make the difference between beating the disease or allowing it to beat you.<\/p>\n<p><em>Get your dried, organic herbs, organic essential oils, bulk spices, loose leaf organic teas and aromatherapy supplies at the place where we shop \u2013\u00a0<strong><a href=\"\/recommends\/StarWestBotanicals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Starwest Botanicals<\/a><\/strong>!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Below is a list of essential oils which are considered safe (with no known contra-indications) to use externally and by diffusing in palliative care.
