"There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly." ~ R. Buckminster Fuller
it is only just the beginning!
Aromatherapy, using therapeutic-grade essential oils, is a wonderful way to uplift and balance emotions. These are the most popular essential oil blends specifically formulated to promote emotional clearance and self-renewal.
First, let’s take a look at why therapeutic-grade essential oils would have an effect on emotions. When a fragrance is inhaled, the odor molecules travel up the nose where they are trapped by olfactory membranes that are well protected by the lining inside the nose. Each odor molecule fits like a little puzzle piece into specific receptor cell sites that line a membrane known as the olfactory epithelium. Each one of these hundreds of millions of nerve cells is replaced every 28 days. When stimulated by odor molecules, this lining of nerve cells triggers electrical impulses to the olfactory bulb in the brain. The olfactory bulb then transmits the impulses to the gustatory center (where the sensation of taste is perceived), the amygdala (where emotional memories are stored), and other parts of the limbic system of the brain. Because the limbic system is directly connected to those parts of the brain that control heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, memory, stress levels, and hormone balance, essential oils can have profound physiological and psychological effects.
