Peppermint and Lemon Essential Oil

Aromatherapy is the use of plant oils and and including essential compounds to alter your mood.  It is very therapeutic and can lighten a heavy day.  It can be traced back more the 3,000 years ago and rooted to Egypt.  The inhaling of aroma from essential oils is believed to stimulate the brains function, it is also believed that the oil can be absorbed through the skin and travel through the bloodstream.  This process leads to healing within the whole body.  I had the opportunity to try the InstaNatural's Peppermint Essential Oil, and Lemon Essential Oil.  These oils, cool, energize and refresh the body and mind.
