Introduction
People are often very dismissive of their health, and this is a trend that is being increasingly observed these days. The general claim is that the individual does not have the time to deal with what they consider trivial, even if their life literally depended on it.
However, what they do not recognize is the fact that most prevalent diseases or health problems these days have one common underlying factor – stress. Its tendrils reach far and wide and have affected our day-to-day functioning severely. Hence, it is in our best interests that we find a way to combat this stress effectively, and in a manner that does not involve side-effects.
Enter essential oils and aromatherapy. While there are many misconceptions surrounding the two, one must not forget that they benefit a lot of people in a lot of ways. There is also the added advantage owing to the fact that the use of these oils do not take up a lot of time in one’s daily schedule – all you have to do is apply or inhale!
This eBook wishes to highlight just that. It goes through the various benefits that different oils and aromatherapy in general have to offer and explains their use with specific reference to relieving stress. Apart from this, it also provides some blends you can make in order to use them to relive stress; these come in handy if you want to try aromatherapy at home.
Chapter 1: What is Aromatherapy?
Aromatherapy as a practice has been observed since the older days. Its use has been recorded and noted back then as well, specifically with relevance to spiritual purposes. Apart from this, ancient civilizations are known to have used essential oils in order to serve many other requirements.
Aromatherapy is a science that uses natural compounds such as extracts from plants and essential oils. Its use is not restricted to merely physical wellbeing; it also leads to improvement in the mental health of an individual.
The human olfactory sense is affected by the fragrances that these oils emit because they are often strong. Our body responds or reacts to this sense by relaxing, an reaction to a given action.
The oils used in aromatherapy have a variety of sources – such as different plants. Their use is not limited to one particular path either; they can be used in varied ways and can be inhaled, or applied in the specific region. All this depends on what outcome is expected of it.
