Great resource for beginners or advanced EO users
=== Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with the author and always write from my true experience. But please note that I received this item for free in exchange for my honest review. === Review begins: We are HEAVY consumers of essential oils due to the nature of our business, which over 40% of it is involved in natural health and beauty products made with essential oils. So while we are not beginners in this journey, having done this for over 30 years and raised our entire multi-generational family in our business, we also always appreciate a simple and easy to understand handbook for beginners and experienced users alike. Christina writes from the heart in this basic EO bible. She starts by telling you her personal journey that led her into a natural, holistic lifestyle. She then proceeds to discuss the basics of essential oil usage, the background of EO, and some do's and don'ts. She then proceeds to outline the benefits AND Drawbacks of 30 essential oils, which should be in any practitioner's work set. After that, she proceeds into her personal recipes and shares her years of knowledge in 5 distinct areas, to allow you to have a better and healthier personal life and healthier home without all the chemicals that are so prevalent in today's world. And isn't that a better way to live? Finally she wraps up with her recommendations for a travel kit, glossary, references and resources, and an ailment index so you have an idea where to turn for what ails you. She presents all this in an easy to understand format, without resorting to big words, and instead keeps it simple and basic. The flow of her writing is elementary to all, and yet when you finish reading a section you have a better grasp of the concept than before you entered the section. Approximately 160 pages long, in an easy to read typeface and paper, this book truly is a must have for anyone starting their journey into the healing properties of essential oils, or for long time practitioners, like our family, who can always use a quick refresher. Even after 30 years, I know I still have to consult notes when blending a new formulation just to refresh. And I am the KING of Post-It notes and should own stock in the company, so this little resource is quick and easy to refresh without little yellow pieces of paper all over my lab. So go ahead and take the plunge and order it. Your passion for EO will thank you! End of Review === Thank you for taking a minute out of your busy life to read my review.
