Chapter 1

In the past decade, essential oils have gained a lot of gained popularity for their many uses . They are being used for medicinal reasons, often replacing traditional prescriptions and mainstream medicine. They are also being used for pleasure, gracing homes and offices with their amazing and often therapeutic scents.

The use of essential oils has been around for thousands of years, as far back as 1500 B.C.

Before there was such a thing as traditional medicine, people were dependent on finding cures that came straight from nature.

Many botanicals and herbs were used for healing and for luxury as well. Then it was discovered that the essence of the plant, the concentrated hydrophobic liquid, contained a more potent version that, of course, magnified the effects. So, through a process of distillation, expression or extraction, the oils were collected and thus, essential oils were birthed.

Essential oils are used medicinally both internally and externally. They can be applied to the skin or inhaled (aromatherapy). They are used for pleasure in much the same way.

When applied topically, generally, essential oils are mixed with a carrier oil that not only makes the oil easier to apply over a large area, but also helps it to absorb into the skin. It is important to use a high quality and all-natural or organic oil when doing so because you dont want the oil to be contaminated with chemicals or toxins. That would certainly defeat the purpose.

Essential oils can be used in bath soaks, soaps, and scrubs. Not only does it sink into the skin by doing so, it also provides a scent that is inhaled that makes it double effective. It is a popular practice to make luxury essential oil projects, like soaps, for therapeutic reasons that also serve for pleasure. For example, a soap made from Lavender is of medicinal value since it is rich in antioxidants, great for calming the nerves, and promotes sleep. On the luxury side, the scent is rich and pleasurable.

When essential oils are inhaled, it is called aromatherapy. This can be done through many different methods such as infusing the oil into the air, steaming it, and using it in a potpourri. Again, the reasons can be medicinal, for pleasure, or both.

Essential oils can be eaten or can be mixed in a drink. Peppermint oil is often added to teas, or even to candy, and vanilla as well. The safety of ingesting many essential oils is questionable, so if you are thinking of doing so , be sure to research and then make an informed decision. The same is true when using essential oils in other ways as well. Some essential oils are considered unsafe to use in or even around young children-, babies, pets, and expectant mothers. There are essential oils that are thought to potentially cause reactions such as making you very sleepy, or others may possibly interfere with prescriptions. So, be wise in using the oils.

Not only do the individual oils hold special properties, they can be blended to concoct a product with certain qualities. A bath soak for achy muscles may include Peppermint essential oil, which is excellent to relieve pain, and Lavender to relax the muscles and for a calming effect on the mind as well.

You can make essential oil do-it-yourself projects for a multitude of purposes. You can do them for medicinal reasons, such as a headache remedy that replaces or enhances pain relievers. You may create a skin cream for anti-aging purposes or to get rid of a scar. Likewise, you may make up a bath soak for a therapeutic or a luxurious spa experience.
