They're used in massage, in aromatherapy, and to create a positive ambience at home and at work. This attractive new addition to theEssential Handbookseries 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.
