The uses of natures own harvest, plants, flowers, herbs and spices, many of which are healing and therapeutic, is the art of Aromatherapy.

Our smell is directly linked to the limbic system of the brain that stores memories associated with smells.

Different smells produce different neurochemicals in the brain that help the body heal in different ways.

Among these chemicals are endorphins for pain reduction and seratonin for relaxation and calm.

 Plants as medicine are used mainstream in European countries. 

 There are many different ways to use aromatherapy for beauty and wellness, cleaning, colds and skin conditions, or promoting sleep or optimum energy.

 One way of using aromatherapy is by seasoning the food we eat.

 Essential oils used transdermally, or massaged into the skin are absorbed directly into the bloodstream, and are carried throughout the body affecting all organs and immune system.
