When people think of aromatherapy, one of the first aspects to come to mind are the essential oils. Extracted from various parts of plants, aromatherapy essential oils have a myriad of uses. Many possess various medicinal qualities from helping to treat acne to the ability to boost your immune system. They can also be used in aromatherapy diffusers and aromatherapy oil burners to fill a room with the essence of the original plant. The plant's essence molecules are approximately 75-100 times more concentrated as an essential oil than in the dried plant. In aromatherapy it is held that simply inhaling an essential oil elicits an immediate olfactory response and provides for ready absorption in the bloodstream.

Aromatherapy Essential Oils

Essential oils are the most common form of aromatherapy because they are so versatile. You can use them in an aroma lamp or add a few drops to your bath water or shampoo. However, they are great for bath products. You can create bath salts, natural perfumes, massage oils and many other all natural aromatherapy products.

What is aromatherapy used for?

Aromatherapy may promote relaxation and help relieve stress. It has also been used to treat a wide range of physical and mental conditions, including burns, infections, depression, insomnia, and high blood pressure. However, so far there is little scientific evidence to support claims that aromatherapy effectively prevents or cures illness.

Aromatherapy provides health and body care on a completely natural basis, and the subtle qualities of the oils lend themselves best to a gradual experience. Always mix essential oils in glass, porcelain or aluminum bottles as the oil will react with plastic. Essential oils are very concentrated substances and should be diluted before applying them to the skin. Add about 12-15 drops of essential oil to one ounce of carrier oil, such as jojoba oil and shake to blend. Add & mix 3-5 drops of essential oil to a bowl of warm or cool water. Soak a wash cl! oth, wri ng and apply.

Disapproving Faces: Not Everybody Will Like You

Image
Not everybody we meet will like us and it is ok to move into acceptance rather than trying to make somebody like you. It is not necessarily a pleasant experience, but there will be times in our lives when we come across people who do not like us. As we know, like attracts like, so usually when they don't like us it is because they are not like us. Rather than taking it personally, we can let them be who they are, accepting that each of us is allowed to have different perspectives and opinions. When we give others that freedom, we claim it for ourselves as well, releasing ourselves from the need for their approval so we can devote our energy toward more rewarding pursuits. While approval from others is a nice feeling, when we come to depend on it we may lose our way on our own path. There are those who will not like us no matter what we do, but that doesn't mean that there is anything wrong with us. Each of us has our own filters built from our experiences over time. The...

Azurite and malachite

Image
by The Online Jeweller Magazine Article by Jimmy Reinard Azurite and malachite are both crystals formed by the weathering process that breaks down natural copper ore deposits. Azurite is a striking brilliant blue colour, with a hardness of around 3.5 to 4 on the Mohs scale as well as a specific gravity of around 3.77 to 3.89 and a refractive index of 1.655-1.909. Azurite is mined for use in paint pigments, often producing a range of blues dependent on the mineral's natural color.Malachite is the Greek translation of moloche, meaning mallow, due to its color.Unfortunately, azurite is unstable in most conditions and loses its brilliant blue color over time or is replaced by its more stable cousin, malachite. Malachite shares the same properties as azurite but appears as a vibrant green mineral. Unlike Azurite, malachite does not require the special handling making it more suitable for use in jewelry but i...
