Filed under Essential Oils
If you need to experience the real magic of these essential oils, you will have to use one of those applications in any part of daily life. Reactions to fragrances are highly individual and specific.
Here is small guideline to help you try evaluating some aromas of essential oils. As you inhale an essential oil deeply for the first time, try and describe the aroma:
- Is it sharp and stinging?
- Is it subtle and smooth
- Is it balanced and tuned?
- Is it light or heavy?
- Is it really warm or cold to feel and sense?
- Is it sweet, spicy, woody, floral, fruity, etc.?
These are some of the basic sensory feelings you can experience on inhaling aromatic oils. Now try and describe how you perceive the aroma:
- Do you like or dislike it?
- Do you link the aroma with any of your previous encounters?
- What emotions do you have that are connected to these experiences? Is it possible to remember them?
- Does the aroma produce those emotions now? Is it repetitive?
- Does the aroma affect your awareness: does it rejuvenate, energize or relax?
Aromatherapy is a science that can not be comprehended so easily; the whole human race has tried to understand its undying mystery since time immemorial. However, its magical properties have always mesmerized us with a sense of awe and suspense.
