Here at Stylish Magazine, we’re all about our mantra that #SelfLoveisStylish. And a huge part of that is embracing lifestyle practices that truly empower our wellbeing. And currently, we’re obsessing on the amazing benefits of crystals and essential oils as natural Zen-boosters!
The gorgeous-smelling qualities of essential oils matched with the healing power of crystals, like meditation and yoga, are tools to help us feel our best. Cathy Kathy, the beauty and lifestyle brand we first adored for its Japanese Gel Polish offerings, now offers the very first Crystal Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser in the Philippines, created to enhance good energy and balance that one can seek to create. It is under its new premium affiliate Cathy Kathy Home.
Both crystals and essential oils have natural healing powers made from the earth’s natural resources. Crystals are made of naturally-created minerals found all over the world, while essential oils are distilled directly from trees, plants and flowers. And combining the two, can you just imagine the feel-good vibe, gorgeous scent, Zen energy and healing powers they can give you?
Aromatherapy, or essential oil therapy, refers to a range of traditional therapies that use essential oils and other aromatic plant compounds. Essential oils have been used for nearly 6,000 years, with the aim of improving a person’s health or mood. The essential oils are usually inhaled as they evaporate into the air using a diffuser. Apart from providing a pleasant smell, aromatherapy oils can provide respiratory disinfection, decongestant, and psychological benefits. Inhaling essential oils stimulates the olfactory system that is the part of the brain connected to smell, which affects the limbic system linked to our emotions, heart rate, blood pressure, stress and hormone balance.
On the other hand, some gorgeous, sparkling pieces of crystals have energy and tons of healing abilities. Aside from looking so trendy and cute as statement pieces in your home, crystals can help you balance and reap the goodness of energy. Sleeping near your crystals can be helpful for calming your anxiety and improving the quality of your night’s rest, and can help in managing good energy around you.
Cathy Kathy Aromatherapy Crystal Stone Diffuser with Essential Oils comes with a handcrafted glass cover and container, with natural crystals and premium essential oils made with high-end fragrance specially formulated to be gentle on the natural crystals and you.
Using the Cathy Kathy Diffuser set is simple. Carefully place the crystals into the glass container. Feel free to put as many crystals as you like. Then add 10-20 drops of essential oils to the crystals. Then let it seep and spread on the crystals. Allow 30 minutes for the essential oils to be fully absorbed. Take the lid off if you want the scent to fully spread in the area you placed it to, or cover the glass container if you want to keep the scent to stay longer at your home.
