You want to find a particular problem or ailment that you would like to address through aromatherapy oils. Theory is one thing, but when you use aromatherapy for something where you actually see the results, is when you seem to get sold on the whole idea. You see how it works and then from there on, you are more likely to experiment further. I always have people coming in complaining about these four problems: tired, wired, sad, and sore. Those are probably the four complaints that we hear the most when people come in. They're very, very tired, they're wired, they're sad or they're sore. So, those will be some of the best ways to begin. Of course, inhaling is the simplest way to receive aromatherapy. You could even use a handkerchief and just put a drop or two on it and inhale the scent. You will quickly see how it will change how you feel. I think inhaling is a good beginning. Aromatherapy oils can be used in a bath; make sure you stir it well and you don't want to use any hot, burning oils in the bath. Even putting them in a little whole milk or buttermilk and then putting it in the bath will help it disperse because it is not water-soluble. Otherwise, the oils will want to float on the top. So, you always have to stir the oils well before you get in the tub. People love to come home to have their house smell nice or even their office; anywhere they have to focus and concentrate or anywhere where they are going to be, it is nice to use aromatherapy. Aromatherapy is nice to think about as an aerial antiseptic if you live in or work in an environment where people come in that are sick.
