Why Don’t we Shower After Raindrop?
by David Stewart, PhD, DNM

When we teach or do raindrop technique we normally advise receivers not to shower till the next day in order for the oils to continue their work. The question has been asked as to why we do this since essential oil molecules are readily absorbed through the skin. Hence, it would seem that within a short time, they would all have been internalized and no longer on the skin surface. If they are no longer on the skin surface, then why would it matter if one showered or bathed or not? That is a very good question, and a thoughtful one, too.

The truth is that when one receives raindrop, not all of the oils applied are aromatic or essential. There are a variety of vegetable and nut oils also applied which are not aromatic and not entirely absorbed. Among the fatty oils used in raindrop are those contained in Valor, Ortho Ease, and V-6.

The oil blend of Valor is composed principally of the essential oils of spruce, rosewood, blue tansy, and frankincense, but also contains the fatty oil of almond.

Ortho Ease contains a variety of essential oils, which are absorbed through the skin, but its principal constituents are fatty oils of coconut, grape, almond, and wheat germ.

Another YLEO oil often applied during raindrop is V-6, which
is composed completely of fatty oils.

When fatty oils are combined with or layered over essential oils, the rate ofabsorption of the aromatic oils is considerably slowed down. Hence, it may take 12 hours or more for all of the oil molecules to findtheir way into the body. This is the main reason for recommending that clients wait over-night before showering.

There is another reason for waiting to shower. Only part of
the magic of raindrop has to do the absorption of therapeutically active molecules through the skin.
The other part is inhaling them. Inhalation allows healing molecules to enter the blood stream through the lungs and to pass directly through the olfactory organs across the blood-brain barrier. Thus, raindrop addresses all of the systems of our bodies via several routes.

Due to the layering and mixing of fatty oils with the aromatic ones during raindrop,
the fragrances linger for a good 12 hours or more, which continue to administer healing to the receiver via the nostrils throughout this time, as well as through the skin. You don’t want to wash this off until it has all of the tiny therapeutic molecules have been absorbed. To bathe too soon will wash away and reduce some of the therapeuticbenefit and potential effectiveness of the raindrop received.

Now you know why we don’t wash
after a raindrop.

Aroooooo! Dr. Stewart teaches all ’bout the Healing Oils of the Bible too and also God’s Love Manifest in Molecules
. You can get his books and learn all ’bout this! WOOF!
