Aromatherapy for Our Well-Being

Do you know………I was visiting a health club and saw this written on their entry way, ‘Fitness is not about being better than someone else, rather being better than what you used to be’. We can take it physically, mentally, or emotionally being better than in past.

Together with regular exercise, healthy diet, and positive mental attitude, Aromatherapy through the use of Essential Oils with their diverse therapeutic properties, could be our best friend for the maintenance of our well-being. Essential Oils are pure natural aromatic essence of plants that have been used since centuries to heal and cure different ailments. Specific aroma has profound impact on our brain and can invoke long-term memory that could be relaxing, upsetting, stimulating, or stressful to our mind-body-spirit. As people are opting for natural, holistic lifestyle, Essential Oils are gaining the popularity. They can be applied with proper dilution (refer to aromawellness.net); Topically, Inhaled, Steam Inhalation, in Bath, in Massage, in Room Spray, in Diffuser. Popular Essential Oils used are:
