Its got to be the Real Deal
We are going to explore Essential Oils in great detail … including the reasons for using the ‘real mccoy’ and the benefits of their application … either through burning in a water-filled receptacle or by direct application to the skin.
There is a saying (source unknown) along the lines that care is best taken in regards to what we apply to our skin, because it is naive of us not to realize that whatever we apply on the exterior will be absorbed through the skin membrane and find its way into the ‘system’ …
Are We Porous
I know when I first heard this it gave quite a jolt … I think at that time I simply hadn’t made that connection, between our internal physiology and the external of everyday living … the ’state’ of our internal body having a great impact on the quality of our external lives.
But curiosity has been a great friend and often finding it impossible to take ‘no’ for an answer … I love a challenge and the opportunity to don my metaphorical deerstalker (in the style of Sherlock Holmes) and set about finding answers … Its partly a defiance of authority figures and being given that old standard – its been a long day – parent-style response of … ‘because it is’ just won’t cut it.
And this approach has opened up a what is a ‘brave new world’ for me. A world brimming full of our incredible capability that is ‘mind over matter’.
And this approach has opened up a what is a ‘brave new world’ for me. A world brimming full of our incredible capability that is ‘mind over matter’.I digress … But this simply brings us back to checking out what we apply to our skins and ingest in the form of internal treatments, food sources, and pharmaceuticals.
Essential oils have a great history and we shall talk about them in further detail next time.

There is nothing like a scented candle to draw us back into a room and make direct contact with our senses …
Candles were used long before the power of electricity was discovered and therein lies an aspect of how remarkable they are to have withstood the test of time. And they continueto make their presence felt today despite modern technology.
