I have been training in the Martial arts for about 16 years, and still going strong. Some days you have all the energy you want to kick to grapple to punch to throw. Other days however, there is much that is lacking in the energy and motivation.One such day when I was really feeling the lack of energy, was a day that we were doing our belt test. The Martial Arts school that I was attending, and now teach for, we do belt rankings like Karate with all the color belts and black belt and then degrees of black belt. This particular day was my blue belt test, which is the higher level of the Intermediate belt level. I was just plain tired from all the training and prep work.When I got there the Instructors had turned on this strange machine in the corner and a mist was rising out of it. That mist had a wonderful citrus smell, like oranges. When I inquired about it they told me that it was essential oils and that it would help with our energy levels and thus busting our motivation.I can tell you that it really helped I was able to perform the kicks, punches, grappling and sparing. Full force and without becoming exhausted. It blew me away, how much help a simple oil with a wonderful smell could affect the mood and energy of the entire room, and me.The process of using a diffuser is simple. You setup the diffuser following the instructions and usually will use water with only a few drops, about 3 to 5, of oil in the water and add the mixture to the diffuser. A diffuser can be anything from a piece of cloth with oil on it, to a heater, to a nebulizer. A nebulizer diffuser is the most effective, since it does not heat the oil, nor does it rely on the evaporation of the water/oil mixture.The oils that work best for boosting energy for me are: orange
