I really love this book! Thank you for writing this and making things very clear and understandable. I have used oils for a while and have collected information from various sources, but seem to get lost in the amount of information that there is out there. I love that it is made to use in the day to day setting and it is easy to follow. I have several places marked to go back to. I especially like that the second section of the book has 50 essential oils for emotional wellbeing, the precautions, uses, applications and properties. This helps for when you are looking for the one oil that will fit your needs. I also like the emotions chart at the end and the recommended blends.
Thank you to NetGalley for giving me a copy.

If you need a starter guide for which herbs are best for your mood, depression, anxiety, and stress, this book has what you need.

About half of the book is filled with exact mixtures to follow to help lift your mood and make you feel calmer. The "recipes" are broken down into uses - like those to help with insomnia and blend for kids. The book starts with tips on how to use essential oils and how to mix them.

It's a great book, but I like to create my own blends, so I prefer more info on specific herbs and oils, and fewer blend recipes.

This book was free from the publisher for this non-biased review.

This was a really interesting read. If you want a non-mlm view of essential oils this is a great read.

Clarity and sanity! There's a lot of misinformation out there on essential oils. Moldenauer is highly qualified and educated in complementary alternative medicine, and it shows. The first part of the book is an overview with safety concerns and carrier oil information. The second section is lavender-bordered for easy reference and describes 50 essential oils with traditional name, botanical name, precautions, uses, applications, and properties of each one. (For instance, Bergamot Orange's properties are: antianxiety, antibacterial, antidepressant, antiviral, central nervous system tonic, etc.)
The majority of the book is dedicated to recipes, with guidelines for blending and layering oils. She specifies what works best for children, adults, pregnant women, and babies. Recipes include inhalers, room sprays, bath balls/salts, diffuser blends, body oils, inhalers, shower melts, etc. Safety is listed on each page, whether direct or passive inhalation, topical use, safe for ages 2+, 5+, etc. Finally, her emotions and essential oils charts describe emotional concerns acutely and offer recipes for every concern. A delightful, unique volume that will be a welcome addition to my wellness library. Thanks to Callisto Publishing for sending me a copy!

I have always suffered from anxiety and was very skeptical about essential oils being able to assist me with that issue, but gave this book a try and found that I have been less anxious when using them. This is definitely one I will be recommending!

I'm definitely going to make my own oils and see if it truly works ...
