Aromatherapy will explain how your sense of smell triggers thoughts and how it affects your emotions and your mood. Learn how you can use this information to improve your health, your feelings, and your life. Aromatherapy is the art, and science, of using oils extracted from aromatic plants to enhance health, relaxation, and inner peace. These oils are the most potent form of herbal use and are known for their healing properties. The sense of smell is 10,000 times more sensitive than the sense of taste.
Aromatherapy uses that sense to promote healing.
Potpourri is a mixture of dried, sweet-scented plant parts including flowers, leaves, seeds, stems and roots. You can add a few drops of an appropriate oil to refresh old potpourri. Sweet-smelling potpourri can be used in arrangements and sachets to provide a calming effect and reduce stress. The natural chemicals found in aromatic plants are derived from the same naturally occurring chemicals in our own bodies. Essential oils are concentrated.
