The
fragrant flowers, energize air from the
towering trees, and all the plants that
purify our air. Think how the earth would be
if we did not have this in our universe. As
it is if we have so much smog in the earth
now and how much more we would have if we
did not have our plants.
Essential oils are extracted from trees,
flowers, seeds, roots, grasses and shrubs.
These oils contain a life force of the
plants. Aromatherapy oils promote the life
force in nature. There are many uses for
these oils to promote plant growth, repel
insects, and so much more. When we blend
them we have the most wonderful effect in
our life. Those who use these on regular
bases will hold them very highly in their
life for the effect of clam and relaxation
it brings.
We have been using Aromatherapy for
centuries. Archaeological have proof from
all over the world where they have been
used. They found uses from , religious
ceremonies, healing to in the tombs of
Egyptian pharos.
The sense of smell has a powerful impact on
our lives. We always remember grandmothers
cooking. The smell of the pies or cookies.
Maybe a fragrance of roses. It helps trigger
the past to help you remember those things
that you will never forget.
I hope you enjoy and learn to see that
nature gives us many things not just to see
but things that can help us in our everyday
life.

By magically blending your choice of
carrier oils with essential/fragrance
oils, we can create personal blends just
for YOU to fit your every need.
Blended Healing oils can be used for
massage, Reflexology, skin complaints
and conditions. Once absorbed into the
bloodstream externally through the skin,
healing oils can be highly beneficial to
the circulatory system.
Blended Healing oils can stimulate
certain systems of the body while
sedating or relaxing others. With proper
use, healing oils can be blended
together to assist the respiratory,
digestive, genital-urinary, endocrine,
immune, nervous systems and the mind.
Blended Healing oils have many uses.
They may be applied directly to the
skin, a few drops added to a bath or
foot soak, or added to the water of an
aroma therapy pot. Do not fill a
diffuser with only the blended oil as
oil and flames do not mix! The different
types of oil that may be used.
Carrier Oils are used for dilution of
the essential oil and is a most
important part of the application. Fixed
vegetable oils are used as carrier oils,
such as Sweet Almond Oil and Grape seed
Oil and combine with their own
properties with those of the essential
oil while creating the necessary
dilution. Other carrier oils: Olive,
Jojoba, Avocado, Apricot Kernel, Sesame,
Sunflower, Hazelnut, Safflower, Peanut
and Corn. Mineral oils are best avoided.
Infused Oils are carrier oils infused
with healing herbs such as Calendula,
St. John's Wart, Borage and Plantain, to
name a few.
Pure Essential Oils-It is best to use
essential oils as external remedies
only. DO NOT TAKE ESSENTIAL OILS
INTERNALLY! Some essential oils are
toxic if taken internally. Neat/Pure
essential oils SHOULD NOT be applied
directly to the skin. There are a few
exceptions to this rule, yet you will
need to research that for yourself. It
is best to always dilute them with a
carrier oil first.
Always do a patch test ! Put a few drops
of the blended healing oil on the back
of your wrist, rub together and see what
happens. If an skin has a irritation
occurs, bathe the area in cold water.
Essential oils should NOT be used at
home to treat serious medical or
psychological treatments.
Certain essential oils may also be used
to perfume linens and clothes or
rejuvenate potpourri.
An essential oil is extracted from the
plant material by two main methods: by
simple expression or pressure; or by
steam, water or dry distillation.
Essential oils are usually liquid, but
can be solid or semi-solid according to
temperature
Blended Oils are exactly that! Essential
oil blended with a carrier oil to apply
to the skin. Use as a daily perfume or
therapeutic-ally.
Combinations of blended oils depend upon
your creativity and fragrance you desire
to manifest. Fragrance Oils are blends
of essential and synthetic oils. They
blend as well as essential oils and are
treated the same as an essential oil
