Fragrances, with their intriguing ability to evoke emotions, memories, and visions, have played an important role in the world’s spiritual traditions since the dawn of time. Drawn from the essential oils of plants, they serve as an earthly connection with the Divine. In her fascinating book, renowned aromatherapist Valerie Ann Worwood breaks new ground with an in-depth study of the use of fragrance in spirituality. Drawing on the pioneering research of eminent scientists and the insights of leading spiritual teachers, she provides exhaustive guidelines detailing how fragrance can be used in many spiritual practices, from Shinto and Buddhism to Native American rites. Extensive charts, exercises, and formulas demonstrate the use of aroma in healing, prayer, and meditation and in conjunction with vibrational and energetic healing. Covering more than 70 essential oils, this extraordinary guide helps readers call upon the divine power of fragrance to enrich their own spiritual journeys.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Exploring links between spirituality and aromatherapy,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Aromatherapy for the Soul: Healing the Spirit with Fragrance and Essential Oils (Paperback)
Fragrances contain unique properties which can not only heal, but evoke emotions memories and even visions: while much discussion revolves around healing, Aromatherapy for the Soul: Healing the Spirit with Fragrance and Essential Oils focuses more on the psyche, with chapters exploring links between spirituality and aromatherapy. It previously appeared as THE FRAGRANT HEAVENS: its new title promises a wider audience.

Depends what you're looking for,
This review is from: Aromatherapy for the Soul: Healing the Spirit with Fragrance and Essential Oils (Paperback)
If you're seeking a book that culminates much of the already available information in one place, this book could be good for you. It provides guidance on suggested blends for various ailments of a more spiritual nature. The reason I have given this a 3 star rating is because this is not what I was after. For me, a book of this kind hopefully gives you the tools to make your own evaluations of formulae and the 'grass roots' to do it all yourself. I was looking for a book that provided guidance that all the other aromatherapy books do not - it didn't. If you have a general aromatherapy book, or one of the other Worwood books, this one won't add much marginal benefit.

Not like her other books.,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Aromatherapy for the Soul: Healing the Spirit with Fragrance and Essential Oils (Paperback)
Although somewhat informative it did not contain the recipes I was looking for like the ones in her "The Complete Book of Essential Oils & Aromatherapy" which I've used so much it has the scents of many essential oils amongst its pages.
