Using Essences and Oils in Haircare

Essences and oils penetrate into the hair shaft and support sebaceous gland function. The result is healthy, luxurious hair and new growth.

We are born with the amount of hair follicles throughout life. Our products can strengthen hair follicles and nourish and balance the scalp integrity.

Only small amounts are needed to produce good results within weeks. We do not use sulphates, mineral oil or fillers. Best results originate from massaging them on the scalp, allowing the products to affect new growth first. Then continue massaging, spraying or cleansing to the ends of the hair. Too much of any essential oil can damage hair. Our aromaHealth essence blends and Petite Fleur Essences are very concentrated but safer for hair and skincare.

Test a small patch of scalp area an hour before to check for a reaction. Redness or itchiness are symptoms. Any product can cause a reaction and should be tested first.

We can special blend our products and replace any oil or essence that may be offensive. Contact by email or phone for special requests, preferably before you order. For example, lavender and a few other essential oils are estrogenic and may be replaced in a blend for those on estrogen blockers. Another client is allergic to Lemongrass essential oil, which we replace in any product she desires.

Hair products are like food. What helps one person may not be helpful to another. An example might be nut oil, an allergic item for some and delight for others.

Tradition offers insight for which oils support hair growth, thickness, manageability and possibly reduce alopecia. Very few studies have been conducted by anyone to "prove" hair products using double blind studies monitored over weeks or months by an independent lab. And most personal products, including hair care are chemical fragrances or synthetic essential oils.

Mother Nature's Herbal book includes hair care used by many ancient and Medieval cultures. Word of mouth prevails over the centuries! An autographed book is available online or by phone, as well as special requests for your hair products or questions.

How Indigenous People used Scent

Medicinal and personal use of scent were valuable and well known to most indigenous cultures. Besides religious ceremony, inhalants and hygiene, aromas were used to treat mental, emotional and many physical diseases. Some cultures also enjoyed perfumed cosmetics and used fragrance in domestic practices. Fumigation was used for broad spectrum cleansing and protection, insect repellents and good fortune. They believed Nature Spirits responded well to aromatics.

Native Americans used aromatics 5-6000 years ago. Some of these practices are described in Mother Nature's Herbal, for headaches, sinus, grief and mental imbalances. Aromatic poultices were applied to wounds. Hygiene was achieved by burning aromatic woods which did not alarm prey. They chewed aromatic native herbs and roots, like ginger, to clean their teeth. Sages were especially favored for dental hygiene.

American Natives did not distill like we do today to produce aromatherapy. They soaked fragrant plants in animal grease, with fresh flowers and roots every day to produce a fragrant balm, or inhaled the smoke of a fragrant tea or burning plant. Any member of a tribe could benefit aromatherapy. Other," more advanced cultures", used aromas only for royals and aristocratic members.

Basic stills were discovered at least 5000 years old in Crete used to produce aromatherapy. Ancient African, Egyptian and later, Greek cultures produced and traded aromatic oils for religious, and later, personal use. More detailed information is available in Antique Rose Collection e-book, both books are available on our website.

East Indian Ayurveda medicine especially utilized aromas of sandalwood and many spices in medicine and cooking. I studied with a Brahman priest, who is like their doctor, learning how they also use foods for psychological and physical well-being. Aromas are a way of a healthy life, which we can emulate.

Flowers like  Butterfly Lily clean the air in our environment, as well as protect us from pollutants in the environment. NASA approves using the plant for cleaning the air. An aroma like this will also support better breathing and cognitive well-being.

The aromas pleasing to you will support the unique scent you have carried since being in the womb. They will help your thoughts and feelings stay positive and productive. Aromas will also increase vitality and physical wellness. You will attract like-minded people and achieve your highest goals.

If your sense of smell has diminished, inhale basil or rosemary daily. The intensity of smell often returns within weeks or a few months.

Utilize the inherent brilliance of past cultures and allow natural scents guide your path to success.

How NAC antioxidant Increases Melanoma Growth

Melanoma is a very invasive, fast growing cancer, enhanced by NAC. N Acetyl Cysteine is an antioxidant that increases reduced glutathione in cells.It is available in all cells, including melanoma tumors. Cells are dependent on NAC for energy and cleansing normal cells. Melanoma is able to utilize NAC to double the migration and invasion of cancer cells into normal cells.It also increases an enzyme,rhoA, activated by cancer cells during migration and invasion. NAC can double the amount of cancer cells inside melanoma.

Scientific research is guiding cancer patients with information about particular antioxidants that can increase cancer growth. Every type of cancer is unique. NAC should be avoided as a supplement if melanoma is present. This is difficult for some people to understand: cells work correctly in balance of suppressor and activator actions. The most prestigious supplement companies, as well as the internet are promoting NAC for all cancer patients. If melanoma is the diagnosis, delete NAC from your program.

I have consulted cancer patients as a nutritionist for 40 years. I include the Petite Fleur Essences topically for all who are interested. I have created 30 blends for therapists to use with patients in hospitals also available on my website. I receive the most accurate, recent research from scientists world wide to assist clients and patients achieve radiant health.Cancer is a complicated illness that must be addressed individually and with the most current research. Those who go online searching for answers for treatment are left with a "shot gun" approach.

Proper supplementary nutrition requires knowledge and understanding of individual strengths and weaknesses of the body, past history and other stressors.

Although antioxidants in the diet can be very helpful, swallowing every supplement and drink listed on the web or in a book for cancer treatment can be counter productive.

Aromatherapy and Metabolism

Eighty percent of Americans and Western Europeans, especially women, are slow metabolizers. Metabolism not only affects weight, but also anxiety, depression, blood sugar levels, fatigue, insomnia, parathyroid and hormone balance. Eating high protein, low fat foods help, but certain essential oils and aroma blends increase metabolism within minutes, if not seconds. Wearing these aromas daily, especially during cold weather, which reduces metabolism further, can increase circulation, thyroid and adrenal activity and neurotransmitters in the brain.

Basil is a good essential oil to increase brain activity and adrenal function. It also reduces stress and viral invasion. I use Basil Petite Fleur Essence to increase self esteem and gently increase metabolism. The Petite Fleur Essences have a milder aroma and affect electromagnetic activity. They are more subtle, yet longer lasting in effectiveness. Holy Basil balances brain activity and enhances focus. It feels calming because the brain activity is more efficient.

Cinnamon essential oil best stimulates metabolism by balancing blood sugar. Many slow metabolizers have hypoglycemia, and can become diabetic through weight gain over time. Weight Therapeutic Essence is an excellent blend to reduce weight and blood sugar. Most diabetics have excellent results within weeks to a few months using Weight 3 x daily at mealtime.

An excellent choice for increasing digestion is Ginger essential oil. Rub it in a blend on the tummy after meals or before. Blend 2 drops in a tablespoon of carrier oil, such as red raspberry and massage the abdomen. The stimulation feels good.Ginger rub is perfect after a large meal or when a too full feeling occurs.

Jasmine grandiflora absolute helps stimulate thyroid metabolism with a gentle, effective aroma. It also opens communication abilities to speak from the heart. Gently stimulating the thyroid increases digestion and adrenal function to produce more energy and less sluggishness.

Orange flower absolute reduces depression and anxiety. Orange flower has been used historically to balance heart energy and improve metabolism, specifically affecting circulation.

Peppermint essential oil reduces pain, especially affecting the knees and back. When pain feels stuck, use Peppermint. It both relaxes and sedates the area. he initial boost of energy is temporary. Stop Hurting lotion contains peppermint and several other essential oils to improve mobility.

Safe Travel using Purely Organic Hand Sanitizer

Recently the local news reported information about the sanitation on airplanes. The news was shocking. Multi resistant staff and fecal material were found on the tray tables we drink and eat from. The lavatory had fecal material and a strain of staph causing pneumonia on the sink and other areas. Cold and flu germs were just about everywhere a passenger sits, eats and uses the bathroom. These are the reports that stand out in my mind. My thoughts go to what we can do to remind ourselves to not only wash our hands, but also to use a hand sanitizer on the tray and everywhere we put our hands and uncovered flesh. Aromahealthtexas offers Purely Organic Hand Sanitizer made from fresh, garden blooms grown onsite. The flowers essences and essential oils have antibacterial, antiviral and anti fungal properties without overpowering scent. The essences are safe for children and also useful for dry, itchy skin.

If you want healing, and protection, I suggest using and traveling with knowledge and  my therapeutic hand sanitizer. Purely Organic Hand Sanitizer will increase your immunity without taking away its integrity.

Enjoy safe travel and a happy holiday season.

Pesticides that Cause Depression in Farmers

 The National Institute of Health recently published a 20 year study on the use of pesticides causing depression in farmers. Seven pesticides were cited, particularly organochlorines and fumigants. These categories increased farmer's depression between 80-90%. Malathion was used by 67% of the farmers interviewed. Malathion is widely used commercially and available for public use. The farmers were surveyed several times during a 20 year period to include the aspect of usage over time. Approximately 84,00 farmers and their spouses were interviewed since the mid 1990's to accumulate this information.

The way these pesticides lead to depression is believed to be through disruption of nerve pathways. They also inhibit specific enzymes affecting neuronal health. These pesticides find their way into our water supplies and into the soil we use for farming and growing at home.

There is no immediate indication that our government is going to limit or change anything about pesticide usage. Depression is only one symptom researched in this study. However, there are environmental groups lobbying the E.P.A. and governmental agencies that can use support. 

For our personal protection, I make an environmental mister that aids in self healing that can help and Harmony Blend to help alleviate symptoms of depression. The body knows how to heal when given proper stimulus. I also make natural insect repellents from organically grown plants in my gardens.
