Product Description
Relieving the stresses of modern life needn't be complicated or time-consuming. "One of the miracles of aromatherapy," says Victoria Edwards, "is its absolute simplicity. Just a whiff of the right oil can adjust your attitude, clarify your thinking, steady your resolve, even easy your pain. I'm rarely without a small vial containing a special blend."
In just minutes, you can refresh yourself with a portable de-stressing essential oil blend or a luxurious aromatherapy bath. 25 Aromatherapy Blends for De-Stressing offers fast and simple natural treatments, including relaxing blends for diffusers, invigorating flower water mists, pampering facial treatments using aromatic moisturizers, masks, and toners, and re-balancing aromatherapy massages.
