Essential Oils

Plants and their essential oils have been used for healing since ancient times — they were the original pharmaceutical. The molecules of the oils affect the limbic system of the brain, the center of emotions, behavior, motivation, olfaction and memory.

According to David Crow, L.Ac., aromatic plants produce essential oils for two reasons: protection (from pathogens, fungus, pests and as a stress response) and attraction (to lure in pollinators). (Aromatic Intelligence: The Healing Power of Essential Oils). We can use them for the same purposes.

Benefits of Essential Oils

Essential oils have well-known antibacterial, antiviral, anti-infectious, antifungal and other beneficial properties. Jasmine and rose are seductive aromas that also have emotional healing and balancing effects. Conifer oils are beneficial for the lungs and sinuses. Frankincense and myrrh have been used for spiritual upliftment since biblical times, and orange is known to improve mood. Many oils can be used to enhance spirituality, prayer and inner awareness.
