Tolerance

“Resolve to be tender with the young,
compassionate with the aged,
sympathetic with the striving,
and tolerant of the weak and the wrong.
Sometime in life,
you will have been all of these.”

~George Washington Carver!

The word, tolerance, has a variety of meanings in today’s world.  The tolerance we will be talking about today is the ability to love people as they are while seeing them as they could be—or want to be.  Tolerance includes, in my opinion, not thinking that it is your job to “fix” someone else.  Tolerance never tries to force another person to your way of thinking or into being who you think they should be.

Loving others with a love that shines a light on their best qualities and helps them to see their own path ahead more clearly is tolerance.  This is the sort of emotional health that the essential oils listed in Butterfly Miracles with Essential Oils promote.

^LeBelieve  

This blend can help us be more self-forgiving and have more confidence in ourselves and our own abilities.  As a result, we feel more generous, compassionate, tolerant, and appreciative of those around us.

^LeGrace

Helps us find and move toward our place in the universe. This blend can bring us the assurance that we are right where we are supposed to be and all is right in our personal world. We can relax and enjoy our lives, while still accomplishing all that we need to and living to our full potential.  ^LeGrace extends to our ability to love and accept others as we wish to be loved and accepted.

^LeGrateful Heart

Being grateful for the things that we have and the people around us, also helps us to be happier and more tolerant of people all around.  ^LeGrateful Heart helps us to focus on the good in people and the good times we had with them in the past.

^LeLetting Go

By letting go of negativity and criticism, we find feelings of tolerance and compassion towards the faults and foibles of those around us and of ourselves.  Letting go of negativity has a healing effect on the kidneys, liver, and the gall-bladder—making the ^LeLetting Go blend a very beneficial blend for physical well being, as well.

^LeReconciliation

This blend helps us find perspective and peace by bringing us understanding and compassion. This empathy is like a warm blanket, covering ourselves and others, allowing us to stay connected even when distance separates us.

Anthopogon

This very exotic is oil from Napal.  It is an ingredient in both ^LeGrateful Heart and ^LeReconciliation.  Anthopogon creates a feeling of openness, love, and connection, especially to family members and old friends.  Anthopogon is wonderful for reflective meditation and helps us focus on the good.

Zanthoxylum

Another amazing oil from Napal.  The aromatic influence of Zanthoxylum helps us to accept that we, in ourselves, are enough and that what we can do is enough. We are not broken or damaged and no one needs to “fix” or “heal” us. This attitude is acceptance of ourselves, not apathy or lack of direction and inner drive. We will know more clearly what we need to be doing and what direction we need to be going in.

Essential Oils Assist Us in Healing

Essential oils do not over-ride our own personalities and desires.  They are not magic potions that eliminate all of our faults with no effort on our own part.  Essential oils assist us in being more of who we want to be.  They help us heal.  Are we determined to see the worst in people?  Do we absolutely want to hold on to grudges and feelings of judgment?  If so, essential oils—will help us do just that.  This tendency of essential oils is not often seen.  People who use essential oils generally want healing.  They want to be their best selves.  Essential oils are very helpful in helping us improve ourselves and our emotional responses.
