There is a lot of information out there about the miracles of essential oils, with very little scientific research to back the claims up, so it can make consumers a little leary of believing everything they read (and with good reason). However, although there is not a lot of scientific data available (certainly not compared to the amount of information available on conventional medicine) I am a firm believer in the power of essential oils to bring about powerful physical, mental and emotional changes. One particular oil of interest for me right now is Peppermint. In University studies it has shown to improve mental allertness and increase stamina in athletes. While I respect skepticism in the world of aromatherapy, I also ask that people remain open-minded to the power of plant medicine. It is just a matter of time (and patience) before more and more studies show, as they have with traditional herbal medicines, indeed there are some remarkable and positive effects taking place due to a course of aromatherapy treatment.

I love heather and lavender and often buy it fresh then tie a silk ribbon around it then hang it upside down over my bed. This is a great read.
