A natural approach can be used alone or in conjunction with conventional treatment.
You don't have to make a choice between the two.
FOR THE HOUSEHOLD
A natural approach is beneficial and healing for the entire household, not just the addict.
HEALTHY LIVING HABITS
A natural approach is more than just using herbs and essential oils. It includes healthy eating habits, lifestyle changes and possibly other natural therapies like massage, cranial sacral therapy, acupuncture, etc. It’s remarkable how such simple things like diet, sleep and stress reduction can make a difference in someone’s mental state, emotional balance and physical well-being. When your body is more comfortable it's easier to feel motivated to stay on track and be productive.
USING HERBS & ESSENTIAL OILS FOR ADDICTION RECOVERY INVOLVES
TWO METHODS:
1) A few natural remedies are kept on hand to use on an as needed basis for the roller coaster moments of the day.
2) A few carefully chosen herbs and essential oils are used on a regular basis to support the immune system, support the liver, for hormone balancing, to keep emotions and mental states balanced.
PARENTS
Young people need help to implement these basic lifestyle changes. Parents, it would be in your best interest to experience these things yourselves. This will make your efforts to help your child more successful. Wholesome living habits are for the entire household not just the addict.

HERBS AND ESSENTIAL OILS
There are specific ways that herbs and essential oils can help with addiction recovery. Scullcap, Passion Flower and Valerian are herbs that relax the nervous system. These can be taken regularly or used on an as needed basis when cravings are a problem. Keeping more relaxed can help overcome anxiety and other difficult moments. These completely natural herbal extracts don’t cause bad side effects, as is the case sometimes with pharmaceuticals.
Regular inhalation of certain essential oils like Clary Sage and Bergamot can have a direct effect on depression, mental attitude and emotions.
Tonic herbs like Astragalus and Siberian Ginseng are taken everyday on a continual basis to mitigate the detrimental effects of long-term stress. Over time they give a sense of wellbeing and satisfaction that can replace cravings and feelings of emptiness.
Herbs and essential oils can become effective tools to help with all the roller coaster moments of the day for all members of the household. Parents and spouses can use these things to remain calm and stable enough to be able to take advantage of those precious moments of opportunity when you might be able to make a difference in someone’s life.
