Sandra asks…
aromatherapy?
Anyone know of fragrences to improve mood, help depression etc and where to get it from??
Chloe Adisson answers:
Scents and moods are mostly subjective i.e. You should find a scent that is related to a pleasant memory. While I like the scent of wet pavement (associate it with the beginning of rain), most people find it pretty disgusting.
A few essentials do have medicinal properties, but they are relatively rare. The only one I know for sure is frankincense resin, which is a mild sedative. Most other scents’ effects are ‘in your head’.
Safe bets to start with are citrus and flower scents–few people have bad memories of that! If you can find a store in the area that carries perfume oils, walk in and ask to smell samples. These are usually pagan or New Age -themed stores. If you don’t have those, find a Yankee Candles store and sniff the candles. At a buck and change apiece it’s a relatively inexpensive way to scent a room and try out what you like.
Ruth asks…
What aromatherapy would work for depression problems?
I know it’s probably a quack medicine but I think that it’s worth a try in addition to regular therapy and medication. What aromatherapy would be helpful for treating depression?
Chloe Adisson answers:
None.

Chloe Adisson answers:
Aromatherapy uses essential oils extracted from nature’s herbs and flowers. The aroma is inhaled, or applied to the skin, and each of the oils (or combination thereof) addresses a specific disorder. It appears that the body is able to utilize the healing properties of the oils through the olfactory system of the body, and so initiate the healing process. Aromatherapy practitioners would also have an understanding of the psychological and emotional factors of illness.
This website has some great information and articles about Aromatherapy.
