The effect of essential oils on humans is complicated and not completely understood.

We do know that plant essences can have wonderful,powerful and even a toxic effect on the body depending on what and how much is used.

Essential oils affect the body in two ways. psychological and physical.
Essential oils are attrracted to oil and have a natural affinity to our skin. They are small in molecule so they can penetrate the skins tissue easy. They have a very profound effect on the body and mind.

On the skin.. they can disolve dead surface cells, help to increase cell turn over, stimulate metabolism add softness, tone,and improve our texture.

On the Blood and lymph.. essential oils can help create a smooth flow, help in detoxing, help elimination of our wastes and help to increase our motabolism.

On our glands.. They have a sedative effect. Essential oils help normalize our glad function.

We know that essential oils have a powerful effect on the body. In a recent experiment at the studio 2/21/2002.. we rubbed garlic oil on the feet of a willing staff member ( we promised her a pedicure if she'd let us do this....with in a 1/2 hour we were able to detect the garlic ordor on her breath.

Essential oils have survived the test of time. As far back as Adam in the Bible..essential oils are found and were used.

I encourage each of you read the oils in your lotions...see if you can find the smell of what it is in the ones you use..
Watch how your mind drifts and emotions arise. ...
To learn more about the effects of Essential oils pick up an aromatherophy book at the health food store and start creating a whole new world inside your body and out.

Caution... Some oils when mixed together are toxic.. be sure you check out first with a specialist what can be mixed together and how much..

Keep us posted as you explore the world of essential oils.. Look Good Feel Good Be Good HAVE FUN!!!!

We didn't believe this experiment could work.. but it did..
try it.. we found it mind blowing..
It goes to show how esential oils travel through our body..
Garlic has healing propoties in it..
Some believe you should only eat it when you are sick.. It acts as a anti-biotic.
Garlic Feet.. your too cute.

If you eat garlic on a regular basis it will help you if you are sick..

If you are a naturalist and use oils and herbs as medicine.. you would consider garlic an antibiotic..and only use it when necessary..

Just like if you took an antibiotic all the time your body would be immuned to it when you needed it to fight infection..

I will be the ginney pig on the rose petal experiment!!

Love, Chris

Chris:

This is probably a "Dumb Don" question.

What is meant by the word "essential" in essential oils?

Essential to what?

Don
