More About Aromatherapy
Educate Yourself Although essential oils are well known to be great healers of all types of afflictions and maladies, it is in the user's best interest to educate themselves in the proper use of high-grade therapeutic essential oils before use.
Powerful Tool
Aromatherapy is a powerful tool that can be used to unlock negative emotions that you hold in your body from past experiences. On a subtle, energetic level, essential oils shift the vibrations of your body where it impacts the endocrine system. It seems likely our life experiences are coded by the aroma that was present during that experience. It is common to recall childhood memories when smelling essential oils. Scents
The sense of odor is more sensitive in human beings than the sense of taste. The flavor of food is a combined response to two of the chemical senses; taste and odor. The sense of odor is the major contributor to the perception of flavor.
