Is it possible that a scent can make you more mellow and increase dramatically the relation with you and your mate? Can you calm the Kids down instantly? Do you wish that you would feel and look more in control for the big meeting? Thousands of people around the world have discovered the powerful benefits of Aromatherapy. And you can do it to.

With the Stress involve in our way of living today, we get psychological and physiological consequences to our fragile health. We spend more of our hard earned money on over-the-counter medication or on prescriptions to help cure our little and bigger pains.

The power of Aromatherapy could help you lead to a better outlook of life And keep more money in your pocket.

But what is Aromatherapy exactly?

Aromatherapy is the art and practice of using Essential Oils extracted from aromatic plants and Herbs to restore or enhance health, beauty and well being. Aromatic molecules interact with the tops of your nasal cavity and gives the signal to the limbic system (the emotional switchboard of the brain). The limbic system is directly connected to the part that controls the heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, memory, Stress level and hormone balance.

And it works. For example, we use Vicks for our colds, sinusitis and sore throat. It contains Eucalyptus. For me, it’s the only treatment that I find effective for Bronchitis, despite antibiotics treatment.

Let’s talk about Lavender. Lavender is multi use oil; it has strong psychological effects and physiological cures.

We find Lavender in the France. That flower has a fresh, sweet, floral scent. It has calming effect; smell it when you are stressed in the traffic, or at work, or right before an exam because Lavender has calming proprieties for panic attacks, Stress, anxiety and even depression! It’s a gentle narcotic for mental and physical strain.

Some couples use Lavender base Candles during giving birth to have the most calming experience, for the mother and for the new born. Other people burn a candle on a regular basis, after a surgery to help cope with the pain. You can also do it to calm the Kids in the house! Or, for an anticipated quiet night at home with you lover…

Lavender is a good antibiotic for the skin. If your child has cuts and burnings, you can apply creams or lotion with enough concentration of the oil to prevent infection. It also reduces scaring.

Another good aromatic oil is Rosewood. It origins from a native tree in Brazil. It has a psychological effect of balancing, uplifting and enliving. You can use it before an interview, or a business meeting, or even before a hot date! If you are feeling down or lack of “joie-de-vivre” this aromatic essence can change your state of mind and make you look like an enjoyable person (save on alcohol or drugs here!).

Rosewood is also good to treat sensitive of aged skin, because it stimulates the regeneration of the skin.

You can use Aromatherapy in different forms; Candles, shower gels, soap, Bath mousse, Diffuser, potpourri, spray for the room, etc… whatever you feel comfortable with. There is a good selection on www.quixtar.com - IBO #3378953 There are 4 lines of products: FloraCalm, PureForest, Vitafruits and AquaSpa.

You can use Aromatherapy for different emotional well-being; you can treat anger, anxiety, confidence, depression, burnout, loneliness, concentration, etc…

With all the chemicals that float in the air, in the water and in our food, those can produce chemical imbalance in the brain and change our moods and alter the relation that we have with the people in our lives.

The use of aromatic products is a cheap solutions for better health and an happier life.

All those aromatic products can help you have better relationship with your mate (or the opposite sex), with your business associates, at social events, in your home, etc…. to be able to obtain more out of life because of the uplifting attitude that you’ll get. Be careful of buying too cheap; make sure that you are buying quality products with enough concentration to get the beneficial effects.

Wishing you great moments!

The magic of exotic Aromatic Scents

Aromatic Scents are known to have exerted an enduring influence on the psyche of all deep rooted ancient civilizations of the world. Its story is never complete and never ending; at least, one of the great royalties in any given time is known to be associated with mesmerizing effects of these Scents.

Since ancient times, common man has also used scent to entice and excite. And modern perfume manufacturers – with heaps of scientific evidence are developing great perfumery blends with just such a purpose in mind. The impact of Aromatherapy Scents is eternal and will linger on as long as our civilization.

So, what is the magic of these exotic Scents? Why are some Scents more conducive to romance than say, business pursuits? Why are some Scents are more soothing and relaxing than others? Though, these factors can not be explained very easily, their effect on our life is definite.

When you inhale an aroma, it sends a myriad of messages through the olfactory nerve endings to the limbic system of the brain. This system, also known as the “old brain” manages instinctive responses like emotional, sexual and aggressive behaviors. And some Scents – like Jasmine, Vanilla and Ylang-ylang – will stimulate the release of neurochemicals which trigger sexual response.

Plus, our personal preference of seductive Scents is influenced by pheromones, barely visible human scent molecules that travel through perspiration. Pheromones are known to be very mysterious in exerting their influence on human beings.

However, each pheromone is entirely different. Because of the highly acidic nature of a man’s sweat, male pheromones have a more musky quality than female ones. Musk and Sandalwood Scents, in fact, are known to be romantically enticing to women because they closely resemble the chemical make-up of male pheromones.

Exotic and romantic perfume blends are often created with the Essential Oils of Patchouli, Sandalwood, Jasmine and Ylang-ylang. Of course, perfume enthusiasts have other aims in mind too.

The Egyptians, Greeks and Romans of yesteryears created special blends for seduction, but also for worshipping deities, enjoying holidays, and encouraging readiness before battle and inspiring deep contemplation and rejuvenation. Today all of us are still completely enveloped with aroma. And with various Essential Oils, we can also blend our own Scents for various purposes.

A successful perfume is considered as an “aromatic symphony” – a perfect and harmonious blend of top, middle and base notes. Top notes are sharp, fleeting and alluring Scents, those first noticed in a Fragrance and the first to fade. Middle notes summarize the Fragrance midway through the drying process, which can be considered the soul, or the melody of the blend. And base notes are deep, rich, stable, grounding Scents that stabilize the Fragrance and prolong its power, because their slow evaporation rate.

When trying blending a perfume, begin by swirling quickly the Essential Oils and absolutes together in a tight mix. Then mix them to your pick of vegetable-based oil. Jojoba works very well as a base because it’s waxy nature, so it doesn’t become rancid and will increase the life of the perfume. Avoid synthetic oils while blending your concoction as they will mask the original flavor of your blend.

If you want to Fragrance hair, clothes and sheets blend Essential Oils and absolutes in an atomizer and mix pure grain alcohol or 100 proof vodka. You can also create a refreshing, spicy-scented base by adding one stick of Cinnamon, one Vanilla Bean or two tablespoons of spices (Cloves, allspice or Ginger) to a pint of alcohol.

Vanilla is known to induce sexual desire while Cinnamon is attributed to arouse female passions. Alcohol-based oils improve as they mature with aging, so prepare them ahead and let the mixtures meld in a dark place for a few weeks before using. The most enduring aspects of these blends are the everlasting quality after a sustained aging process. As they mature, the blends unfold the aromatic magic, the air filling with exotic fumes of heavenly scent.

Aromatherapy Scents is a source of pure joy; its effects surreal and its influence ever lasting. As some one rightly said As Rosemary is to the spirit, so Lavender is to the soul. How true it is!
