The Natural Aromatherapy Benefits of Essential Oils

What is Aromatherapy?
The Natural Aromatherapy benefits of essential oils support both physical and emotional health. Aromatherapy is defined as the “therapeutic” use of plant-derived, aromatic essential oils, to support health.
Essential oils provide their health promoting benefits aromatically and fragrantly but they are also beneficial when applied topically on the skin. They can be taken internally by adding them to food and drink. They even provide benefits when they are ingested in capsules as dietary supplements.

So What are Essential Oils?

Essential oils are highly concentrated, volatile liquids (meaning they evaporate quickly),  they are distilled from flowers, stems, seeds, bark, and other various other plant parts.
They are not oily or greasy like vegetable oils that come from the seeds of plants. They are absorbed quickly into the skin and travel throughout the body within minutes.
They contain protective, healing, and re-generative properties to protect the plant from bacteria, viruses, fungus, parasites, and even predators.

They have the amazing ability to regenerate plant tissue when it becomes injured or damaged.
Their function is to keep the plant healthy and strong and they are often referred to as the life force, liquid immune system, or even the vital essence of the plant. They are essential for the plant to live, thrive, and have vibrant health.

Why is “Therapeutic Grade” so Important?
"Therapeutic grade" essential oils are not the same as "Perfume Grade." Therapeutic grade oils undergo rigorous testing to guarantee their purity and safety. They must meet strict standards proving that they contain the correct properties needed for therapeutic benefits. For “therapeutic” aromatherapy benefits we highly recommend that you purchase from a trustworthy source.

Ancient Medicine and the Natural Benefits of Aromatherapy
Since ancient times, historical texts from all over the world mention the use of essential oils. Recorded accounts tell how they were used for beauty, embalming, cleaning, purifying, fragrance, gifts, food, healing, meditation, and as protection against disease.  It has been said that Aromatherapy was actually mankind’s first medicine.
We find Egyptian hieroglyphics depicting essential oils for embalming, for healing, for beauty. Avicenna, a Persian physician is known to have distilled essential oils, Biblical Moses was given a formula to protect the Israelite's from the plague, the Story of the "Four Thieves" recorded in the Royal English Archives, and even accounts of essential oils being used by American Indians for meditation and other spiritual practices.
Two of the first gifts given to Jesus at his birth were the highly prized oils of frankincense and myrrh.

“There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise…" Proverbs 21:20
