EPA-registered essential oils are plant-derived botanical extracts officially evaluated and approved by the Environmental Protection Agency to kill or repel pests.

These registered versions are legally classified and labeled as pesticides. Two of EPA registered essential oils are:
– Catnip oil (Nepeta cataria)
– Citronella oil (Cymbopogon nardus).

Catnip oil, the most potent of the group, can run expensive, but a little goes a long way. A 0.1% concentration was almost twice as effective as 0.1% DEET on the mosquito species ‘Aedes aegypti’ landings, and a 1% concentration stayed effective for almost as long as 1% DEET (Reichert et al 2019).

The oils mentioned below have been identified in the research as promising and potent enough to be considered in formulations.

“Some are selected for their similarity with already established repellent oils, some because they have consistently shown to be strong candidates in their own right.
Cinnamon bark, Clove, Peppermint, Lemongrass and Geranium.”

“Both Cinnamon bark (Cinammomum verum) and Clove (Syzygium aromaticum) oils have shown efficacy in research, both as repellents and as pesticides, killing off various stages of mosquito development”.

Clove oil was the most potent with complete protection lasting 112 minutes. Cinnamon bark and isolated geraniol (the major constituent (80%) of Palmarosa oil) provided protection for over an hour.

Peppermint, Geranium and Lemongrass were the next in line for duration, followed by Spearmint and Citronella, Turmeric, Mandarin, Eucalyptus globulus, & Ylang ylang.

Mandarin (Citrus reticulata) showed very good potential – with both the peel and leaf oil providing protection. The peel oil was more efficient, preventing 100% of mosquito landings for 30 minutes (Haris et al, 2023).

Looking to try the single versions yourself? You’ll find them at The Oromocto Galleria, with Catnip only being available in our pre-bottled blend Bug Spray.

Are you “too nice”— a chronic people-pleaser, lack of boundaries, and emotional suppression? It can invite disrespect and be perceived as a weakness or a lack of self worth.

It triggers illness by keeping the body in a constant state of stress (high cortisol/adrenaline), leading to inflammation and immune system dysfunction.

Suppressing emotions like anger or frustration to stay agreeable keeps the body’s sympathetic nervous system (fight-or-flight) on high alert.

Constant stress disrupts immune signaling, which can trigger autoimmune diseases, where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues.

The persistent “fight-or-flight” state leads to elevated cortisol and adrenaline, increasing inflammatory cytokines, leading to heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.

People pleasing also causes burn-out and leads to neglecting personal health (diet, exercise, sleep), which can result in weight gain, obesity and other lifestyle disease.

The KEY DISTINCTION is that true kindness is a strength rooted in healthy boundaries, whereas “too nice” is often a fawn response—a trauma-based attempt to ensure safety by appeasing others. Always be kind, but not a pushover.

Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is generally considered the MOST EFFECTIVE ESSENTIAL OIL for simultaneously calming high cortisol levels (stress hormone) and reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines, through its active compound Linalool, which reduces inflammatory markers.

Frankincense: HIGHLY EFFECTIVE at reducing inflammation, and is used to lower cortisol and provide emotional grounding.

Clary Sage: can SIGNIFICANTLY lower cortisol levels and increase serotonin, making it a strong choice for managing anxiety-induced stress.

ANXIETY- NOT BORN IN YOUR HEAD. ITS BORN IN YOUR GUT.

You've been taking sertraline or paroxetin for 3 years. Anxiety got better at first, now it's moderate but it's still there, especially in the mornings. Your psychiatrist is up the dose. But no one ever asked you how your gut is. What neuroscience published in the last 10 years completely changed where your anxiety comes from.

The gut-brain axis is bi-directional. But the data changes everything: 90% of the fibers of the lame nerve go from the gut to the brain, not the other way around. Your gut sends signals to your brain, not the other way around. And 95% of your body's serotonin is produced in the gut not the brain.

When there is intestinal dysbiosis (excess of pathogenic bacteria, Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium deficiency), serotonin production is low, short-chain fatty acids (propionate, butyrate) that modulate the vaginal nerve decrease, and bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) pe*****te the intestinal barrier and inflame the brain literally. The result is anxiety and depression of intestinal origin that SSRI only patch, because they do not treat the cause.

The Psychobiotics (L. helveticus R0052 + B. longum R0175) are the strains with direct evidence in reducing cortisol and anxiety, published in the British Journal of Nutrition (PMID 21073761).

Psychobiotics: L. helveticus + B. longum 3
billion UFC/day, 12 weeks
Sodium Butyrate 600 mg -supports the intestinal barrier and the lame nerve directly
L-tryptophan 500 mg night - precursor to intestinal serotonin
Intermittent fasting 14:10 - dietary restriction increases microbial diversity

DO NOT suspend psychiatric medication at once, the protocol is complementary, talk to your doctor.

Bloating is usually a result of hormonal or mineral imbalances that trigger excess fluid retention in the body. One of the best natural remedies for bloating is progesterone. Add it to creams or carrier oils, and it is then absorbed transdermally (through the skin).

Raise progesterone naturally? YES! Essential oils that help with bloating are JUNIPERBERRY and CLARY SAGE. Both oils have hormonal properties that can naturally raise progesterone levels, and can help with organ detoxification and hormone imbalance.

Topical applications can benefit the entire abdomen by using equal amounts of a carrier oil and both essential oils blended together. Use daily until bloating subsides. Clary Sage is also cholesterol reducing.

Juniperberry & Clary Sage oils are stocked at The Oromocto Galleria, and carriers oils may be ordered to pickup at the Galleria by calling/texting us when needed.

LEMONGRASS essential oil (Cympobogon flexuosus) - is an effective flea & tick repellent for humans, and for dogs, and different safety dilutions, and applications apply for both!

Historically, used for purification and digestion problems, as for salmonella or parasites. Applied topically, it also has powerful antifungal properties, which when used in shampoo, helps with dandruff and itchy scalp.

Medicinally, lemongrass is antiinflammatory - topically applied for water retention. It’s been shown to regenerate torn connective tissues, ligaments and muscles. It improves circulation by dilating blood vessels, thereby helping varicose veins.

Lemongrass is a powerful oil and deserves respect. When applying topically, always dilute 4-6 parts carrier oil to 1 part EO. Never use on broken skin. Get yours at The Oromocto Galleria .
