How essential oils help with the flu

Posted on: June 14th, 2016

As our days of sunshine become less and we start to feel a little colder we realise that winter is really setting in. We naturally feel like slowing down and taking it a little easier and some people would happily hibernate for the entire winter if they had the opportunity! Feeling tired can be a normal reaction at this time of the year but if you are feeling especially fatigued your body might be preparing you for a battle with the flu.

What we need to know about cellulite

Posted on: December 14th, 2015

The greatest lamented skin condition amongst women today is cellulite.  These unsightly lumps and bumps are generally located in the upper arms, thighs, hips, buttocks, inner knees and weight-bearing areas, giving an uneven and lumpy appearance.  Cellulite is not necessarily related to obesity and very often appears on slim women.  Cellulite is not just “fat”.  When toxins and metabolic wastes are stored in connective tissue, a water retention “pouch” is created around the adipose cells to protect them against the toxins.  The surrounding connective tissue is compressed and...

A Calming Approach to a Better Sleep Using Essential Oils

Posted on: September 24th, 2015

I think everyone at some time in their life has experienced difficulty in sleeping and this is where essential oils and aromatherapy might be of benefit. .

Decreased Performance and Alertness: Sleep deprivation induces significant reductions in performance...
