Aromatherapy 101
Author: Karen Downes
In this beautifully illustrated, alphabetically organized book, Karen Downes introduces you to the fascinating art and science of aromatherapy, which has been used since ancient times to enhance health and well-being.
Aromatherapy 101 empowers you to utilize the extensive medicine cabinet provided by Mother Nature. From "her" flowers, trees, bushes, and herbs, oil is extracted to create "aromas" to aid in the healing process. Our sences can be tantalized, our memories and emotions evoked, and our bodies seduced into relaxation by the power of the aromatic, volatile plant extracts known as essential oils.
