Using Parasympathetic® as a Primer

By Jodi Cohen

A hand holding a paintbrush applies a streak of bright blue paint on a white background, creating a vivid contrast.

Parasympathetic® oil drops the body into the parasympathetic rest and digest state where all natural healing processes turn on.  As such, consider using Parasympathetic as primer on which to layer other essential oils.

“I always apply Vibrant Blue Oils Parasympathetic® blend as a base coat before layering additional oils or healing remedies on the client.  It is amazing in its ability to balance the body, making it more receptive to other healing modalities and set the stage for optimal healing.” – Jennifer, NTP

 

Parasympathetic® as a Primer

Just as you might think of applying paint primer to create a sturdy interface for the paint to bind with, Parasympathetic® lays the foundation for optimal healing.

As you may know, the parasympathetic nervous system is one of the two main divisions of the autonomic nervous system. It controls the body’s rest-and-digest response and helps return the body to homeostasis after the fight-or-flight response has been mobilized by its counterpart, the sympathetic nervous system.

Many of us live in that a constant state of stress, known as sympathetic dominance (Read More HERE).  We lock into that stress response and that locked down state blocks our receptiveness to healing.

Parasympathetic® helps to unlock that door.  Layering it onto the body, ideally behind the earlobe on the mastoid bone, drops our system into a state of homeostasis where we can receive healing.  This state is commonly called open regulation and the body needs to be in this parasympathetic state of homeostasis in order to heal.  For that reason, applying Parasympathetic® as a base layer or a primer for all other oils helps to amplify all healing efforts.

So just as paint primer helps prepare the surface to ensure better application of paint to the surface, applying Parasympathetic® helps prepare the body for better application of other oils or healing remedies.

Primer can help paint dry properly and prevents it from looking blotchy or flaking off.  Similarly, Parasympathetic® oil can open the body to the state of homeostasis, allowing other healing remedies to integrate more fully and maintain their healing resonance for longer.
