"Some researchers believe that a ’systemic memory‘ exists in everything throughout the universe. How could copycat chemicals mixed in a sterile, stainless-steel laboratory begin to compare with the power of essential oils from a plant that grew in its natural environment with rich soil, warm sun, pure water, and fresh air? This systemic memory theory may explain why natural remedies like essential oils are so powerful.
"Within the pages of this book lie the gifts of knowledge. You can learn how and why pure essential oils share their powerful life force in ways that support and maintain our health."
The new 2011 5th edition of this landmark reference book is now in an easy-to-update binder format with section tabs.
This comprehensive book features information on essential oil safety, historical and biblical uses of essential oils, and a chapter discussing over 300 different health topics along with recommended essential oils and blends.
