An awakening disrupts your assumptions. It\u2019s the moment you start to spot patterns you never noticed before. For the next 60 days, use Awaken\u2122 essential oil blend, or any of the oils included in it, while we shake off old patterns and let new possibilities take shape.<\/p>\n

As part of our Blend of the Month challenge, we invite our community to focus on a different intention\u2014along with the associated essential oil blend\u2014for two months, then share their experiences. We started with Gratitude\u2122 blend, moved to Abundance\u2122 blend, opened ourselves up to Believe\u2122, reflected on our Highest Potential\u2122, and stepped into Humility\u2122. Now we\u2019re switching our focus to Awaken\u2122.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The challenge draws inspiration from the legacy of Young Living Founder D. Gary Young, who discovered that blending essential oils could unlock additional benefits from the individual oils. His creations can be used during personal wellness and transformation rituals.<\/p>\n

What does it mean to awaken?<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The word \u201cawakening\u201d gets thrown around so casually in wellness and spirituality that it can sound like a vague glow-up. Underneath the aspirational language, the idea usually points to a very specific psychological shift, one that many traditions, researchers, and therapists describe in surprisingly similar ways.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Awakening as a psychological shift<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every transformation is preceded by an awakening. An awakening disrupts your assumptions; it\u2019s the moment you start to spot patterns you never noticed before. The disruption can come from insight, pain, loss, serendipity, boredom, or hitting a ceiling. However, the results are the same: You see freedom where once you saw constraints and come away with a new vision of yourself. Awakening allows you to walk down paths you didn\u2019t permit yourself to imagine were ever possible.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Awakening and identity<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

An awakening doesn\u2019t give you a \u201ctruer\u201d self. It loosens the grip of the self built from fear, younger patterns, default scripts, and habits running in the background of your mind. It helps you see old stories in a new light and paves the way for new stories to be written.<\/p>\n

What the psychological shift of awakening can do for you<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

People who have experienced this type of shift described having clarity come to them about what was no longer acceptable in their life, things they were no longer willing to put up with. Curiosity can replace resignation. Realizing that you\u2019re responsible for shaping what comes next isn\u2019t scary; it\u2019s exciting. That\u2019s why Gary Young described it as awakening to a sense of passion and joy in your heart!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
