We would get up and as we ate breakfast, I would diffuse the awakening and invigorating scents of Lemon and Peppermint. It is pretty much impossible to be in a bad mood when...

This is a controversial subject in the aromatherapy world. If you dare to do an online search, you'll encounter some pretty passionate arguments warning of the dangers of ingestion. In general, the American aromatherapy industry preaches that it is unsafe to ingest any essential...

It's summer vacation time. School's out and families are heading out to the beach for fun and relaxation. Have you ever stopped to wonder why the beach is such a popular destination? It's a great way to escape the heat. It's definitively a joy to watch your children play in the water while you dig your toes in the sand. But for me, it's more than that. The beach is the place where I can truly relax - where the mind and body are so completely at rest that not even a single thought can interrupt the peace of the...
