THE ESSENTIAL OILS HANDBOOK
All the Oils You Will Ever Need for Health, Vitality and Well-Being
by Jennie Harding
 

288 pages; paperback, ISBN: 1-84483-624-X

Whether it’s rosemary oil for sore muscles or ylang-ylang to calm the mind, aromatic oils play a major role in
today’s holistic approach to health. They’re used in massage, in aromatherapy, and to create a positive
ambience at home and at work. This attractive new addition to the Essential Handbook series is both a
reference and a guide to these oils and their life-enhancing properties. The main attraction is a directory
of 100 oils, complete with a discussion of the benefits of each for body, mind, and spirit, and suggestions
on how it can be used. Gorgeous photographs showcase the plants that yield each oil, and an introductory
section describes their traditional applications in different cultures around the world.
