Flourish and Nourish with Darlene

One of my favourite essential oils. Reminds me of my Nanna’s garden.

Rose Geranium essential oil, steam-distilled from the fragrant leaves of Pelargonium graveolens, offers a fresh, floral, rose-like aroma known for its uplifting, balancing and soothing qualities. Widely used in aromatherapy to calm the mind, centre emotions and create a sense of harmony, rose geranium is cherished for its ability to ease stress, restore balance and support overall wellbeing.

Aroma & Benefits

• Scent: Fresh, floral, rosy and slightly sweet with soft herbaceous undertones.
• Emotional: Encourages emotional balance, uplifts the mood and helps ease stress, tension and overwhelm.
• Physical: Supports balanced, healthy-looking skin, helps ease PMS-related discomfort, and promotes a sense of calm throughout the body.

How to Enjoy Rose Geranium

• Aromatherapy: Diffuse 2–3 drops to brighten your space, balance emotions or refresh your mood.
• Massage: Blend 5 drops with 10 ml of a carrier oil for a calming, heart-opening massage treatment.
• Bath: Add 12–20 drops to warm water for a restoring, spa-like bathing ritual.
• Skincare: Mix into moisturisers or facial oils to support balanced, radiant skin.
• Haircare: Apply lightly to the scalp or ends to nourish, soothe and refresh the hair and scalp.

You Don’t Just Lose Someone Once.

You don’t just lose someone once.
You lose them when you close your eyes at night.
And as you open them each morning.
You lose them throughout the day.

An unused coffee cup.
An empty chair.
A pair of boots no longer there.
You lose them as the sun sets.
And darkness closes in.

You lose them as you wonder why.
Staring at a star lit sky.
You lose them on the big days.
Anniversaries.
Birthdays.
Graduations.
Holidays.
Weddings.
And the regular days too.

You lose them in a song they used to sing.
The scent of their cologne.
A slice of their favorite pie.
You lose them in conversations you will never have.
And all the words unsaid.

You lose them in all the places they’ve been.
And all the places they longed to go.
You lose them in what could have been.
And all the dreams you shared.
You lose them as the seasons change.
The snow blows.
The flowers blossom.
The grass grows.
The leaves fall.
You lose them again and again.
Day after day.
Month after month.
Year after year.

You lose them as you pick up the broken pieces.
And begin your life anew.
You lose them when you realize.
This is your new reality.
They are never coming back.
No matter how much
You miss them or
Need them.
No matter how hard you pray.
They are gone.
And you must go on.
Alone.

Time marches on, carrying them further and further way.
You lose them as your hair whitens and your body bends with age.
Your memory fades.
And the details begin to blur.
Their face stares back at you from a faded photograph.
Someone you used to know.
You think you might have loved them once.
A long time ago.

Back then.
When you were whole.
You don’t just lose someone once.
You lose them every day.
Over and over again.
For the rest of your life.
