AROMATHERAPY and ESSENTIAL OIL WELLNESS
Essential oils have been used in healing modalities for millennia. It’s a branch of herbalism that has a rich history of medicinal, therapeutic, and hygienic applications. Ancient civilizations used essential oils to treat various ailments, in beauty products and in religious ceremonies.
Plants, in general, can have incredible benefits when used as their chemical constituency suggests. So many lab-made drugs use plant extracts as a model for their chemical makeup and yet fall sadly short... simply because nature does it better without side effects.
Hippocrates, the father of medicine, was a lifelong student of botany and herbalism and prescribed aromatics in various forms, from essential oil blends and massage oils, to teas, infusions, ointments and baths. Aromatherapy applications based on the actual chemical components, are used in a wide variety of wellness applications: natural, effective home cleaning products, personal care products, support for pain, physical conditions, as well as for mood and sleep support.
WHY ESSENTIAL OILS?
Skin is our largest organ and easily absorbs the chemicals found in soaps, lotions, deodorants, shampoos, skin care products, makeup and any cleaning products that might touch our skin or that we inhale. It is then, up to our liver, kidneys and lungs to process and "clean" our body of harmful substances. How many people do you know who love the "clean" smell of laundry soap, clothes softener and dryer sheets, scented plug-ins and candles, cleaning products, and perfumes? All those scents, PLUS outside air... gasoline, fires, smoke, lawn sprays, car wash products are filled with toxic substances our body needs to clear out so we remain healthy. Essential oils are a natural product, when used in the proper manner and amount are excellent substitutes for their scented, and chemical-laden counterparts. Our bodies recognize the friendly, volatile oils as "natural". Likewise, when we use natural, organic products in place of products laden with chemicals foreign to our bodies.
Consider using fewer toxic cleaning products at home....for windows, laundry, kitchen, and counter tops.
Consider using fewer toxic products on your body... make your own hand soap with Castile soap, jojoba oil and essential oils of your choice (using different oils for face, hands or shower, based on their chemical constituents.) Instead of window cleaner, counter spray or floor cleaner, consider using Norwex products which use only water and their patented Backlock microfiber products to clean and disinfect your home. Our home has never been cleaner, and we're not putting toxic chemicals in our body or back into the enviornment.
