Mindfulness
Mindfulness is something we hear a lot about these days.
I am not a sensitive person who easily accumulates stress, but as I get older I am becoming interested in mindfulness and keeping both my body and mind in order.
Mindfulness simply means focusing on the present moment.
I'm still exploring, but by incorporating yoga and meditation, and paying attention to my intuition, I feel like I'm starting to get a clearer idea of the things I like, and I'm starting to feel more in tune with myself.
This time, I chose something based on my intuition, and I love it!
I would like to introduce some things that I have felt recently. 
SHIGETA's Essential Oil Sweet Dream
Needless to say, SHIGETA essential oils.
Actually, there was a particular oil blend I was looking for that had received high reviews, but I wanted to choose based on my own intuition, so I chose Sweet Dream from the several types available without even looking at the aroma blend.
It is a blend of lavender, marjoram, lemongrass, etc., which is effective against insomnia, and has a comfortable scent that removes anxiety and makes breathing easier. As the name suggests, it is a scent that makes you have sweet dreams.
To use, simply mix a few drops into body oil and massage, or apply directly to your neck, solar plexus, or soles of the feet.
My personal favorite way to use it is to put a few drops on the palms of my hands, press my hands over the mask, and take a deep breath.
How many times has it helped me relax while out and about or in a stuffy train?
Recently, I've been having trouble falling asleep, so this blend of oil may have been just right for me at this moment.
SHIGETA's essential oils range offers a variety of essential blends, including the popular Body Mind Spirit (a blend of ho wood, chamomile, sandalwood, etc., perfect for yoga and meditation) and Deep Breath, which is recommended for pollen season, so be sure to check them out if you're interested.
In these times when the news is full of virus infections and it can be easy to feel uneasy, it may be a good idea to take basic precautions to boost your immunity, and also to look for items that make you feel relaxed and comfortable, which may help you to practice mindfulness!
