Essential Oils are a high concentrate of oils that come from aromatic plants that are the used in aromatherapy. Aromatherapy essential oils are used to promote healing of the mind, body, and soul.
Aromatherapy essential oils can be used individually or with other oils to create the effect that you want. But before you mix oils it�s important that you completely understand how each oil works and the effect it has on the mind, body, and soul.
Aromatherapy essential oils are found in different parts of the plant. Some oils come from the bark or twigs, while others come from the flowers or leaves. In some fruits it is the rind that is used. For example the essential oil of the rose is found in the flower while for sandalwood it is in the wood, and for basil it is in the leaf.
There are many ways to extract those essential oils but they are both expensive and time consuming. It also requires a great deal of experience to ensure that you are actually capturing the aromatherapy essential oils.
For example, did you know it takes 220 pounds of rose petals just to produce 4 teaspoons of oil? Can you imagine trying to produce these essential oils in your home? Now some people do. They diligently learn to become an expert but for the most part and for most of us it makes more sense to leave the creation of aromatherapy oils to the professionals.
Then you just buy the aromatherapy essential oils you want. Only a few drops of these highly concentrated oils. You can make up your own oils by using olive oil or almond oil as your base.
Synthetic oils can be purchased for a lot less and although they smell very nice they do not have the medicinal value of the natural oils. Put simply there�s no healing power in synthetic oils. It is very important that you purchase natural aromatherapy essential oils.
Aromatherapy essential oils immediately impact on our senses. When we inhale the scent our olfactory cells are stimulated and the message is sent to the limbic system which is the emotional center of the brain.
This is the portion of the brain that is linked to our memories, blood circulation, and breathing. The aromatherapy essential oils each have a different set of properties and fragrance which will effect each of the systems differently.
Different essential oils are absorbed by the skin at different rates which can ranges from 20 minutes to 2 hours so you may not always get the maximum effect and benefits of the aromatherapy essential oil right after applying.
Essential oils have three notes top, middle, and base note and each essential oil is described by its note which really just means how long the scent will last.
Top notes are uplifting and stimulating and very strong lasting up to 24 hours. The following oils are classified as top notes � thyme, sage, peppermint, neroli, lemongrass, coriander, clary sage, bergamot, and basil.
Middle notes can last up to 3 days and affects metabolic functions. The following oils are classified as middle oils � rosemary, lavender, juniper, hyssop, geranium, fennel, chamomile, and balm.
Base notes are the slowest to evaporate. They can last up to a week and have a sweet soothing scent which is relaxing and comforting. The following oils are classified as base oils � sandalwood, rose, jasmine, ginger, frankincense, clove, and cedarwood.
Combining all three notes will give you the best results but it�s important to realize that when making aromatherapy essential oils that there is no right or wrong blends and there certainly are no fixed blends. The more blends you make the more comfortable you will become and the easier it will be for you to create blends that are right for you.
