Aromatherapy, Vanilla Amber Aroma Crystals
Aromas significantly impact emotions. Aromatherapy is the practice of using natural oils to enhance psychological and physical well-being.
Warming water on the stove with a few drops of your favorite essential oil such as cinnamon, clove, vanilla or orange is a quick, low-cost way to create a welcoming aroma in your home. Deodorize carpets with a mixture of 18 drops of essential oil and 1 cup of baking soda. Or, you can easily create your own air freshener by mixing your favorite essential oils and distilled water in a spray bottle.
