Today, more than ever before, people are seeking natural alternatives for their health and well-being. We are remembering how our ancestors turned to plants to help any condition that would arise. People are discovering or rediscovering the incredible power of essential oils and aromatherapy for themselves and their families. Each plant contains a multitude of chemical components that are transferred into each essential oil. Each essential oil contains these beneficial components that transfer into incredible aromas as well as creating a bountiful array of properties that support us physically, emotionally and spiritually. It is absolutely amazing how our sense of smell is an incredible vehicle to help direct us back to our sense of wholeness.
Essential oils can be used to help us with various common physical conditions - Headaches and migraines, respiratory and digestive issues, pain and insomnia, just to name a few. Our physical bodies have an inherent understanding that plants can assist in restoring wellness.
Many emotional issues such as stress, grief, depression and anxiety respond quickly with the use of essential oils. Our central nervous system can find a sense of peace and harmony simply through the inhalation of the essential oil molecules. Aromatherapy is a simple, safe and effective tool to help ease these and so many more emotional concerns.
When our energetic bodies are seeking balance, essential oils can help us with finding clarity and a feeling of connection, or groundedness. Life will, at times, throw curves at us and essential oils can facilitate navigating the peaks and valleys that we may experience. Aromatherapy can help support your daily practices of meditation, yoga and mindfulness.
