Imagine what this smells like: white spruce, cinnamon bark, white sage, balsam fir, and (not pictured) a touch of vanilla. After completing a “Aromatherapy for Massage Therapists” course, I knew it was time to up my game.

Not all essential oils are equal. I use organically certified, women-owned, ethically-harvested, fairly-traded essential oils. 🥰 I order about every 4-8 weeks & will gladly add anything to the box for you.

“When inhaled, aromatherapy stimulates your nervous system (brain, spinal cord and nerves). This means aromatherapy starts a chain reaction of signals to your brain and chemical responses throughout your body. This activity begins once you start smelling an essential oil.
Essential oils (like all substances that smell) release tiny molecules into the air. When you inhale an essential oil, those molecules move into your nose. Special cells in your nose called olfactory receptors notice the molecules are there. In response, they send messages to your brain through your olfactory nerve.
These messages stimulate activity in your hypothalamus and your brain’s limbic system. Your limbic system is a group of structures (including the amygdala) that help control your emotions and store your memories.” -Cleveland Clinic
