71 Essential Oil Healing Recipes by Melissa McNeal

Cure Common Ailments with Natural Solutions
with Simple Step-by-Step Instructions


Description:
Are You Looking for a Safe, Natural, Highly Effective Alternative to Chemical and Sugar Laden Medication and Health Care Products to Treat Common Ailments? 

Then try these simple homemade essential oil recipes. 

Essential oils are 100% natural and do not contain any chemicals, added sugars or synthetic agents. 

They are safer because most over the counter and prescription drugs involve the use of synthetic (sometimes toxic) agents that are designed to alter the body’s functions and mask symptoms rather than address the cause. 

They are cheaper because the cost of essential oils is only pennies per dose. And as they are administered at home, you also save a trip to the doctor where you are exposed to the illnesses of other patients. 

And they are more effective as they are 50 to 70 times stronger than herbs. Essential oils are the most therapeutic and potent components of a plant. 

This book provides you with 71 simple and easy to make recipes to cure common ailments with a 100% natural solution and tells you how to use essential oils safely. It also provides advice about buying essential oils and lists a number of resources. 


MY TAKE:
5 STARS!
I grabbed this book because I have been using essential oils successfully for the last twenty or so years to treat this or that. One can never have enough recipes, be it for food or for other things, so this book with recipes caught my eye.
First, the author makes a very important point - if you are using medications of any type, please check with your doctor before you start using essential oils for treating yourself.
I want to stress - please don't just dive into the recipes and make them. Read the beginning of this book, that's what it is there for - to be read. This author has supplied a lot of important information that is there for a purpose.
The Table of Contents:
Author's Introduction
Essential Oils and Carrier Oils
Where to buy Essential Oils and Carrier Oils (very valuable!)
Essential Oils Safety Information
Recipes - listed alphabetically by Ailment
The author gives us a LOT of helpful information as to what essential oils are, what they are used for, where to get them, how to use them, and most importantly - SAFETY for using these. These are not just 'smell-good' oils. They have power behind them, for instance, some of these can burn the skin. Be careful and listen to what she has to say.
As for the recipes, I think they are a great set of starter recipes. You'll use most of these recipes the most in your home. There are thousands of recipes for the use of essential oils, but this is probably the best set that you'll use.
A quote from her book:
"Essential oils are completely natural. They don't contain any chemicals, added sugars or synthetic agents. Plus, they are also cheaper than most over-the-counter or prescription medications. The cost of essential oils is pennies per dose."
How true! I can vouch for that!
If you like this book, I would suggest learning more about essential oils, and even making an appointment with an Aromatherapy Practitioner. They may be hard to find, but your local health food store 'should' be able to point you in the right direction.

Enjoy!
