Aromatherapy

So I have worked in an aromatherapy store now for three days, and I have to say I think it is absolutely fabulous. Never in my life have I been so happy. To talk to people who are interested in finding alternative ways to soothe their lives, whether it is through a bath, a massage or simply inhaling the scent of an essential oil really does make me appreciate my fellow man a bit more.

Of course I had an interest in aromatherapy before I started this job. However, I have discovered so many new things over the last three days I don't even know where to begin. Another thing is I come home and I smell so good. And I feel really good. It's a big change from sitting at a desk for the last year, so standing all day is a bit tiring, but I feel very focused when I do my yoga now. More so now than before.

I even had the luxury of meeting a chef doing his practicum at one of the more prominent high end restaurants (which incidently is next door to where I work) who is looking at incorporating essential oils into his cooking, to bring about a more intense and interactive experience.

I had purchased an aromatherapy book a few months ago, and I think now that I am in the position to purchase oils at a bit of a discount (hello, of course there are perks) I am going to start to experiment. As I discover things and come up with some recipes, I'll post them.

How do you incorporate aromotherapy oils into cooking?

Gwynabella said...

All the oils used in cooking should be made sure they are edible, (you can get this info from a registered aromatherapist).
The way it works, or so I think it does, is instead of using the herb, you would use a few drops instead (like Sage herb vs. Sage Essential Oil), you'd need significantly LESS oil because it (the herb, flower, root, etc.) is already brought to it's most basic element (the essential oil)and therefore the flavour is fuller. It's supposedly more aromatic as well.

The other day, while I was at work, my sister stole my iPad
and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop,
just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now
broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic
but I had to share it with someone!

I seldom comment, however i did some searching and wound up here
"Aromatherapy". And I do have a couple of questions for you if it's allright. Could it be just me or does it appear like a few of the responses come across like left by brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are posting on other sites, I would like to keep up with anything fresh you have to post. Would you make a list of the complete urls of all your social pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?

First off I want to say awesome blog! I had a quick
question that I'd like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts prior to writing. I've had a tough time clearing
my mind in getting my thoughts out. I truly do enjoy writing but it just seems like
the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost just trying to figure out how to begin.

Any ideas or tips? Thanks!
