The Intricate Dance of Balance The ancient Chinese understood how to live in the world and maintain constant balance. From nature, they observed equilibrium and learned which natural substances maintained harmony in the body. By understanding that they were a part of the natural world, and by using natural gifts, they, like nature, lived in balance. Modern society has forgotten how to live in harmony with it's environment. Constant stresses create havoc in people's systems. Our bodies naturally seek to maintain the balance revered by nature. What is an Essential Oil? Poetically called the "life force" of a plant, essential oils are very complex. Essential oils are stored in special cells, ducts or glandular hairs that are distributed among the roots, leaves, bark, stems and flowers of the plant. Uplifting, protective, calming and regenerating essential oils -- a unique gift from the plant world. A single oil may contain hundreds of constituents that are molecularly aligned in exactly the right manner to trigger a number of responses in the human body. Very concentrated and very powerful, a drop or two of distilled therapeutic-grade essential oil produces quick and significant results. Essential oils protect the plant from insects and other herbivores, from bacteria, molds, fungi and other microorganisms and also helps to heal inflicted wounds. These unique characteristics make essential oils highly beneficial to humankind. How Essential Oils Work Our senses connect us to the world and allow us to respond to our environment. Essential oils fill our senses and trigger physiological and psychological responses in our bodies. The Sense of Scent Fragrance is the substance of memories. One whiff of a childhood aroma can set the memory in motion, bringing back thoughts, faces and feelings long forgotten. How does this happen? Fragrance consists of volatile molecules that float in the air. Millions of olfactory receptor cells line the nose. Aroma causes these nerves to fire and send messages to the limbic area of the brain. From there, the messages travel to other parts of the brain, activating thought and memory. The pituitary gland is also stimulated to release chemical messages that travel via the blood to glands and organs that create physical body responses. Hence a scent has the power to activate a number of physical and emotional responses. It happens in less than a second! The Sense of Touch Because of their molecular structures, essential oils are rapidly absorbed when applied to the skin. Silky smooth to the touch, they penetrate the outer layer of skin. It is often possible to smell some oils on the breath shortly after applying them to the body. Upon reaching the dermal layer of skin, essential oils lead to different effects, depending on the type of oil applied. The Sense of Essential Oils Essential oils -- nongreasy yet soft and soothing -- are different from common vegetable oils. The pure essence of a plant, lost in the normal processing of herbs and flowers, is captured in essential oils. Pure essential oils are rapidly absorbed or inhaled and rush directly to their targets. The quick distribution of essential oils results in a rapid response. "Fragrance is quickly gaining credibility as a powerful tool in both the medical and scientific communities." Alan R. Hirsch, M.D., Director of the Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago, IL |
