Can Smells Trigger Trauma - Part 2

Can Smells Trigger Trauma - Part 2
If you haven't read Part 1 find it here

We all know that smells can bring back memories. But did you know that smells can also trigger trauma? And, on the flip side, that smells can also help process and release trauma? It's true! The power of smells is something that shouldn't be underestimated. Thankfully, there are techniques and products that can help release past trauma so you move on.

How Smells Can Trigger Trauma
Smells are one of the most powerful triggers for memories and emotions. That's because the sense of smell is closely linked to the limbic system, which is the part of the brain responsible for processing emotion and memory. When we smell something, it can trigger a long-forgotten memory or feeling almost instantly. This is why certain smells can be so comforting—they remind us of happy times in our lives. But it also works in reverse. If we associate a particular smell with a traumatic event, that smell can trigger those same feelings of trauma.  This can be debilitating for some and make it hard to live a normal life.

How Smells Can Heal Trauma
Just as smells can trigger trauma, they can also help process it. When we use essential oils to intentionally create a certain atmosphere, we can help our brains process and release those negative emotions associated with trauma. This is why the Young Living Feelings Kit is so powerful. This kit comes with six different essential oils: Release, Forgiveness, Valor, Inner Child, Present Time, and Harmony. These oils can help create a sense of calm and peace, which is essential for releasing trauma. 

They are specifically chosen to help release past trauma and help you move on. They can be used individually or together depending on what you need in the moment. A diffuser will disperse the oil into the air so that you can breathe it in and reap the benefits. And you can also apply topically on certain areas of the body to enhance the process of releasing trauma.

If you're struggling with trauma, you are not alone.  Many people suffer, often in silence.  Don't underestimate the power of smells. Essential oils can be a helpful tool in your journey to healing. The Young Living Feelings Kit is a great place to start if you're not sure where to begin. This unique method can bring help that is not available any other way.

Need assistance with releasing emotions?

20 Creative Christmas Gifts for Homeschool Children and Teens

20 Creative Christmas Gifts for Homeschool Children and Teens
It can be tough to find gifts for homeschooled kids that are both fun and educational. But never fear! I've got you covered with this list of 20 great gift ideas. From learning games to creative art supplies, there's something here for every child or teen. Plus, they're all affordable and easy to find, so you won't have to spend a lot of time or money searching for the perfect present. So whether you're shopping for a child or teen, be sure to check out this list!

1. Learning Games
There are tons of great learning games out there that make education fun! Check out classics like Scrabble or Monopoly, or try something new like Qwirkle or The Settlers of Catan (These are some of our favorites). There are also lots of great card games and board games that can help with math, science, history, and more. Whatever your child's interests are, there's sure to be a learning game that's perfect for them.



2. Art Supplies
Creative kids will love receiving art supplies as a gift! Stock up on crayons, markers, paints, clay, and whatever else your child needs to express their creativity. If you're not sure what they need, a gift card to an art supply store is always a good option. Or you could put together a craft kit with everything they need to make a specific project. Either way, they're sure to appreciate your thoughtfulness!



3. Science Kits
Science lovers will be thrilled to receive a science kit as a gift! There are kits for all kinds of different experiments, so you can choose one that's perfect for your child's interests and abilities. There are kits for Earth ScienceChemistrySTEMGeologyEcosystems, and more!  Plus, it's a great way to get them interested in science and teach them about the scientific method. It might even inspire them to pursue a career in science when they grow up! 



4. Books
Books make the perfect gift for any occasion! Whether your child loves stories about princesses or dinosaurs, there's sure to be a book out there that they'll love. You could even put together a themed book set, like classic literature or folktales from around the world. And don't forget about non-fiction books! They can be just as engaging and informative as fiction books, and your child is sure to learn something new from them.  Holiday books are great, too! These are some favorites for my kids.



5. Puzzles and Brainteasers 
Puzzles and brainteasers are great gifts for kids who love solving problems. They'll have hours of fun trying to put together a difficult puzzle or crack the code on a brainteaser. And you can rest assured knowing that they're also getting some valuable mental exercise in the process! So if you're looking for a gift that's both fun and educational, puzzles and brainteasers are always a safe bet.



6. Educational Toys
 Another great option for gifts are educational toys. These are usually designed for specific age groups and focus on things like colorsshapesnumbersletters, etc. They're perfect for younger children who are just starting to learn these concepts.



7. Educational Subscriptions
There are so many unique subscriptions that encourage learning in a variety of ways.  I love those that help them learn new skills or be creative.  These are two we enjoy all year: Think Outside, Annie’s Kit Clubs. And if your kids like to cook - I'm The Chef, Too!



8. A personalized book 
Give your child the gift of a story this Christmas with a personalized book. There are many great companies that offer this service, and you can find a book for any age group. This is a gift that will be cherished for years to come.



9. A subscription to a kids' magazine
This is a great gift for the young reader in your life. Not only will they enjoy getting their own mail, but they'll also love having something new to read each month.  We like Learn Our History and Tuttle Twins.



10.  Sensory swing 
This swing is great for all kids, but especially if you have a child with special needs.  These allow for a wide range of motion, provide sensory pressure, and help with body balance and awareness.



11. Balls
SoccerBasketball, Football, whichever sport catches their eye.  This gift will keep your kids happy and active and outside!  Many balls have different sizes, so pay attention to the size your child needs.



12. A new bike 
For the active child, nothing beats a new bike! If you're feeling generous, you could even add on some training wheels or a helmet to help them stay safe while they're out riding around. Every child needs a bike at some point in their lives.  Encourage their outdoor activity with this special gift!



13. Essential Oils 
Did you know that there are essential oils specifically designed with kids in mind?  Help bring calmness, focus, and health with these amazing and kid-loved tools, and ease into bedtime with the owl diffuser that has nightlights and music!



14. A karaoke machine
Does your child love singing? If so, they'll love belting out their favorite tunes with their very own karaoke machine or a simple karaoke microphone! This is a great gift for family gatherings or parties with friends. 



15. A pet 
Pets are not only fun but also provide companionship and teach responsibility. If you're considering this option, be sure to do your research beforehand to find the best pet for your child and family situation.   Look for local rescue centers - we have had our little rescue for 13 years and love him!



16. Memberships 
A trip to the zoo, aquarium, national park, museum, or amusement park, or better yet, get the whole family a year’s membership! There's nothing like seeing animals up close and personal, learning about faraway places and history, or just having a blast together as a family! These make great day trips or weekend getaways, depending on how far away you live from these attractions.  The America the Beautiful Pass is great - and if you have a 4th grader - they get a free Every Kid Outdoor Pass.



17. Experiences
Sometimes the best gifts aren't things at all but experiences instead! Tickets to see a movie, play, or concert, or even just a gift certificate for an afternoon at the spa—these are all things that kids will enjoy and remember long after the holidays are over. So think outside the box this year and give your child an experience they'll never forget!  CertifiKid or Groupon are great places to find local experiences at great deals.



18. A special homemade gift
This could be crocheted or knitted, painted or colored, thrown on a potter’s wheel or even baked in an oven.  Get creative with your own talents and make it unique and something they will treasure always.



19.  A warm fuzzy blanket 
Who doesn’t love cuddling up with a fuzzy blanket in the winter? There are so many options and designs that this can be personalized to fit your child’s interests.



20.  Legos 
Legos are hands down, the toy that my kids play with the most.  They love to build and design, and there are so many options depending on their interests!  These keep brains and hands occupied and creative.  




There are tons of great gifts out there for kids! Whether you're looking for something fun or something educational (or both!), be sure to check out this list of 20 great gift ideas.
