Aromatherapy… the skilled and controlled use of essential oils for physical and emotional health and well being! Not only do essential oils smell superb (because they are pure), they have an abundance of healing properties.  They are naturally anti-bacterial (fight infection), naturally anti-viral ( influenza, herpes), expectorants (get rid of that phlem in the chest), and can be used for anything.  I believe there is a place for everything and drugs were created to provide a cheap synthetic version of what is available naturally.  During the fall and winter, when people suffer with head colds, sinus infections, chest ailments…try an inhaler…when you breathe in the essential oils, they go into your nose, sinuses, into your lungs, cross the blood brain barrier and carry good little molecules all over your body to help fight the viruses and can nip an infection in the bud.  Plus, they smell great and relax you when you are stressed.  Plus, you body isn’t working overtime to try to get rid of they fillers that are typically put into a tablet.  Tis the Season… if you haven’t tried true aromatherapy yet…don’t wait!
