Essential oils are the aromatic compounds extracted from the seeds, bark, stems, roots, flowers, and other parts of plants. Each drop of essential oil is made up of millions of tiny molecules.
Try this at home: Squeeze the peel of a ripe orange. The fragrant residue on your hand is full of essential oils.
Essential oils contain hundreds of chemical compounds that provide a variety of healing & therapeutic properties. The molecules of essential oils are so small that they can quickly penetrate the skin and then enter the cells of the body. This is one reason why some essential oils are often used very successfully to fight against viruses.

Many modern pharmaceutical researchers study plants and essential oils and even attempt to recreate some of these natural compounds to use in man-made pharmaceutical drugs. With some basic knowledge and a few precautions, you can easily begin to take control of your own health by using essential oils.
For example, I rarely use any synthetic drugs for headaches now. I can naturally take the pain away by using essential oils. A drop or two of Peppermint oil rubbed on the temples, forehead, and/or back of neck is a simple and effective solution for most.
It is important to understand that essentials oils are not medicine. They work to support the body, not just mask symptoms. I am not a doctor and I do not practice medicine. I do practice healing of the body, mind and soul. And you can, too! Stay tuned to learn how!
