for the Soul: Healing the Spirit with Fragrance and Essential Oils
Excerpt from the Back Cover of Aromatherapy
for the Soul:
"Fragrances possess a unique ability to
evoke emotions, memories, and visions. Since the dawn of time
spiritual traditions as diverse as Judaism, Christianity, Islam,
Shinto, and Buddhism have used fragrances to enhance the experience
of the Divine. With Aromatherapy for the Soul, world-renowned
aromatherapist Valerie Ann Worwood has created a comprehensive
guide to the use of essential oils and aromas to enhance spiritual
practice.
Originally published as The Fragrant Heavens,
this groundbreaking book draws equally upon the pioneering research
of eminent scientists and the insights of leading spiritual teachers.
Extensive charts and exercises demonstrate how to use fragrance
in healing, prayer, and meditation and in conjunction with vibrational
and energetic healing. This extraordinary guide covers more than
seventy essential oils and will help you call upon the divine
power of fragrance to enrich your spiritual journey."
Aromatherapy for the Soul offers a broad
and enticing look at the spiritual application for essential oils
in ancient and present times.
This isn't a "recipe" style book, so
don't look to it if you're looking for ready-made recipes. Instead,
choose this book if you're looking for a deeper introduction into
the role that aromatherapy and aromatic botanicals play within spirituality
in general and within your own personal spiritual practices.
