The aroma lures you in. You stand face-to-face with labeled dark glass bottles urging you with a TESTER. One by one you remove the caps and inhale, and your reactions differ with each one. Some you like, others are eh, and others give you definite yuck feelings. You notice a refreshing, relaxing feeling with bergamot, actually forcing your eyes to softly close while you deeply breathe. Rosemary wakes your brain up and you find yourself smiling from ear to ear. Lemon adds an instant smiley face and you feel happy. Patchouli catches your interest, taking you back to the days of hippies and feeling free, all the while feeling grounded. Why?
You scan the surrounding shelves, taking note of other bottles of oils under a category Carrier and Skin Oils. The section labeled DIY Aromatherapy has empty dark glass bottles, spray bottles, small glass measuring cups, the smallest funnels you have ever seen, pipettes, assorted jars with lids, blank inhalers, glass stirrers, and labels. The shelf below invites your curiosity with bottles of organic unscented body lotion, Epsom salts, bags of colorful Himalayan bath salts, and powdered clay in a variety of beautiful colors.
Your eyes return to the bottled oils, and, driven by curiosity, you remove the lids, inhaling and then replacing the bottles on the shelf. You want to know more about them. What is the history of these oils? How do I know which one to choose? Do they do more than just smell good? Are they safe? How can I make something just for myself with this favorite oil of mine? Can I blend other oils with it? How would my family benefit?
This is a familiar scenario. Once you begin learning about essential oils, creating and introducing blends into your daily life, your family will happily follow and look to you for support of their health and beauty needs. In this book you will receive answers to the above questions, be introduced to 100 essential oils, and have access to 100 easy-to-prepare recipes and/or uses for physical ailments, mental and emotional well-being, and beauty applications. In short, youll learn how to use essential oils in your home.
You can begin this most serendipitous journey by turning the page!
A plethora of information is available on aromatherapy and essential oils. A solid foundation is the way to begin using your personal collection of essential oils in a creative, safe environment. In Part 1 of this book you will learn the history of essential oils. Though essential oils are seemingly new, in actuality they have a rich and enchanting history; in recent years they have surfaced once again and grown in popularity. There is a reason why people need aromas, even if they have lost their sense of smell.
The word essential brings to mind something necessary, vital, and important. Learning what that means with regard to essential oils will be exciting. Well discuss choosing quality oils and how to identify them, along with common safety guidelines. Youll also receive important information about the relationship, interaction, and necessity of carrier oils, which are used with essential oils. Dilution of the oils with carriers is vital, and theres an easy-to-follow chart later on. When you know how to correctly store the oils, you will not only maintain their beautiful life, but youll continue to get a return on your monetary investment.
The variety of ways to apply essential oils will enhance different aspects of your life, and I hope it will encourage creativity with them. You will not need many tools to make great recipes with essential oils. Lets start building a foundation for your own world of essential oils!
Simply, an essential oil is the essence or life force that comes from the flowers, petals, leaves, roots, bark, fruit, resins, seeds, needles, and twigs of a plant or tree. A variety of methods are used to extract the oil, the most widely used being steam distillation. After the extraction, the liquid on top of the water is the highly concentrated oil; it will have the aroma of the plant along with all therapeutic properties particular to that plant. The liquid on the bottom is the hydrosol, which is a diluted but an equally important part. The oil on top is 100 percent pure and 100 percent natural. To receive the full benefits of the therapeutic, emotional, and energetic properties of the oil, you should make sure the oil you purchase is not adulterated. The oil is highly concentrated, so you will need only a few drops to produce the results intendedless is more. Essential oils are not oily like a fixed vegetable or carrier oil, which makes them volatile, meaning that they will evaporate.
