Aromatherapy and Essential Oils for Healing: 120 Remedies to Restore Mind, Body, and Spirit

This book is great, the oil substitutes are what got me to buy this one. The oil profiles and recipes are informative and easy to follow, giving easy to understand instructions and what ages are safe to be used for. I have been using essential oils for over 20 years, but I will confess, I am not an expert. This I believe is a great book to have in your library. Beginners and the seasoned will be happy with this one. The only downside to me, is that so many other oils could also be included in the profiles. Maybe she will publish another separate one with other essential oils, I would certainly purchase it!

I have so many essential oil books. This book helped me take my time to understand what essential oils meaning and what they do. It's helping me in my healing and spiritual journey. Thank you😊

this is a great book, it helped me mix the proper oils together for my needs. worth the price. thanks

Basic good knowledge for many ailments - simple yet valuable

Truthfully, when I got my review copy, I was a bit intimidated by the title. It sounded like it was going to be above my level of knowledge. However, I was delightfully surprised to find that it was perfect for my needs.I have very little factual knowledge in essential oils or aromatherapy except for the hype and drama we all hear and read about in the media. I was happy to find this book laid out in such a manner as to engage me right away, at a beginner's level of inquisition and existing comprehension without talking down to me. The author emphasized safety and caution and slow progression, which told me that she wanted her audience to have a positive experience, safely, and that she wasn't just a salesman selling a product. I appreciate that, thank you!I recommend this book highly.

Great book and very edifying !!!!

The day I received this book (as an advance copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review,) I had woke up that morning feeling like I was burning up, my skin was all flush and I felt shaky and sick. I was quite upset and worried I might have to go to the hospital because I felt very unwell. Because I have had a good experience with essential oils before and keep a supply at home, I turned to this book and looked to see if she had anything that could help me. Lo and behold, I immediately saw 2 recipes... one for diffusion to help with viruses, colds, etc. and one to use for cold compresses to bring down a fever. My fever wasn't high enough yet to want to do that (it's better to allow the body to burn the pathogens out and only modify the fever if it becomes too high) but I did mix the recipe for diffusion and I actually decided to apply it to an aromatherapy necklace placed against my chest. I also took some information on one of the oils being great to diffuse during flu & cold season, etc. and I also added just that herb in my diffuser for the day. I feel both helped me, I began to feel better and by mid-day, I was feeling much better. I had the chance to look more through the book that day and I really liked it... it contains a lot of information for those using essential oils to know plus LOTS of recipes with some additional text added to each one that was informative and also individual pages on various oils. All in all, a great and handy reference for anyone and loved the recipe I used! And btw, I am still wearing that diffusion necklace and it's still helping me. ;)

I received this book from the publisher as a review copy and am writing my opinion for them. This book is awesome! It is very rare that I can pick up an aromatherapy or essential oils book and actually am able to make things from it. Usually the ingredients are so off the wall, I'm never able to find them. The recipes were short and didn't have a lot of ingredients and especially had ingredients that I could find locally. This is a huge plus. I tried "Calming Chamomile Body Lotion" and it had 3 ingredients. They were an unscented lotion base, 2 to 3 Vitamin E capsules and Roman chamomile essential oil. Besides a container to put it in and a spoon, that was it. The lotion was amazing and the recipes give alternatives if you can't find something. In this case, if you couldn't find Chamomile essential oil, you could substitute it with lavender. I've already picked out several other recipes to try, including your own deodorant. The recipes range from physical to mental health care and include recipes for diffusers as well. Honestly, I can't say enough about this book, and if you're looking for a book with easy recipes that you can do quickly and feel good about, this would be the book for you!

This book is absolutely gorgeous. It covers things like safety,the history of Aromatherapy and there are lots of wonderful recipes for common ailments and Beauty treatment etc. I highly recommend this lovely book. 😊
