No matter how civilized we become, humans are still animals. This means that sometimes we can be affected by things that have no basis in rationale. Things like scents.
This is where aromatherapy comes in. Aromatherapy.com defines aromatherapy as the practice of using the natural oils extracted from flowers, bark, stems, leaves, roots or other parts of a plant to enhance psychological and physical well-being.
The right aroma can bring any day back from the brink of failure, such as Jasmine, which not only can be used as an anti depressant, but can be used as a disinfectant.
Aromatherapy is largely a form of alternative medicine, but it’s growing in use and its relaxing properties cannot go ignored.
