The Health Benefits of essential oils are endless and the more you learn about them the more empowered you will become to take control of your own well being. Essential oils are volatile aromatic compounds produced by plants to protect themselves, giving them their distinctive aromas, and aid in pollination. When inhaled or used topically these aromatic compounds can play a major role in boosting the body's natural healing process. Essential oils have been used for medicinal purposes for centuries and it is little wonder why, when you consider the healing benefits. The oils promote health and balance within the body and due to their antidepressant, stimulating, detoxifying, antibacterial, antiviral, and calming properties they are becoming increasingly popular. The oils can be used in several ways. When inhaled they pass directly from the lungs into the blood stream. It stimulates areas of your limbic system, which is part of the brain that plays a role in emotions, behaviours, sense of smell and long-term memory.
