drunk on bergamot
Years ago, I got interested in aromatherapy and started using essential oils in the bath. Somewhere in the process, I got addicted to lavender. Although I read somewhere that too luch lavender could lead to a sort of internal metaphysical imbalance, I loved it too much to quit. Lavender in the bath, in my lotion, on my sheets. And eventually, I did start to feel ... off. And then very off. I was drunk on lavender. So I backed off it and then things were fine.
Lately, I find myself similarly bewitched with bergamot. It started with some double-bergamot Earl Grey. Then this week I picked up a bottle of bergamot body wash at Body Shop, and it makes a lovely bubble bath. I’m looking for a bergamot body scent, I think. I am drunk on bergamot, at least for the time being.

If you're looking for energy in the morning, I'd try something citrusy, like grapefruit or orange essential oils. Peppermint is also soothing, without lowering energy levels.
Actually, I break out whenever I use citrus oils in the tub. But I do love peppermint and rose and lemongrass!
