A Scented Life: Wellbeing and essential oils

by Pat Princi-Jones

A comprehensive and stylish guide in using the ancient practices of aromatherapy for modern wellbeing.

Discover the power of one simple breath.

Aromatherapy is the practice of using pure essential oils extracted from plants as remedies for emotional, physical and spiritual wellbeing. The healing properties of essential oils can relieve headaches, muscular pain, and cold and flu symptoms. A few drops in your skincare regime can increase hydration, treat acne and regenerate damaged skin. What's more, essential oils can shift your mood, improve your sleep patterns and lower feelings of anxiety to make you feel restored, relaxed and renewed.

A Scented Life is a journey into the senses, bringing this ancient practice into today's world. Aromatherapy expert Pat Princi-Jones details what different essential oils can do for you and demonstrates the many ways to mix and apply oils in your daily life for maximum long-term benefits.

Amazing photos in this book and great info for beginners in Aromatherapy.

A fascinating how-to filled with beautiful imageries. I remain sceptical, but the romantic in me was satisfied, too. It provides a very good starting point for any budding aromatherapy enthusiast.

This goes straight to my “girly lifestyle design” section of my library along with Bex Partridge’s Everlastings, Caroline de Maigret’s How to be Parisian Wherever You Are, and Fleur McHarg’s The Flower Expert.

A lovely - beautiful- book aesthetically, informative - full of really useful information, and gently but confidently presented by the author. A book I'd like to own.
