essential oil


My husband experiences terrible allergies and consequent sinus stuffiness. I have found that by using aromatic scents of eucalyptus and peppermint that his airways actually clear up a bit. I am guessing the use of essential oils can be considered therapy for his allergy symptoms.

It is especially nice to enter a home that is infused with the aromas generated from essential oil. That is when I say breath in the essential oil scents! I like to keep some fragrance working all the time in my house. I like jasmine, rose, orange, and lavender. When the hubby's allergies flare up I pull out the medicinal scents.

Now that the Holidays are upon us I am using a lot of cinnamon, pine and berry scents. I can't wait for the live Christmas tree to be put up. Then I won't need to bother with the pine for a while. The natural essential oil from the tree will do the trick all by itself. I'll start making the traditional Christmas cookies here soon and then those aroma's will permeate the walls of my abode. I may not even need essential oil again until after the New Year!
