Extraordinary, Wonderful Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Fragrant Heavens (Paperback)
This book does wonderful justice to what we have all subliminally known - namely that scent and fragrance work on more than the physical realm. In this remarkable book, Valerie Worwood discusses in great detail the role of essential oils in all kinds of spiritual and emotional practice and healing. For example there are numerous colour photographs of the remarkably beautiful auras of different oils. There are table compiled by those who have real experience of them, of how oils interact with angels (don't let this put you off) and there is an in depth discussion of each of 62 oils and how they work to support and heal us on a deeper and higher levels than anything purely chemical could. I have long used and love essential oils and this is an invaluable addition to my library of more basic introductions to the physical properties of the oils. Incidentally, Worwood's Fragrant Pharmacy is one of the best books of its kind of the medical and household uses of oils, and her Fragrant Mind is BY FAR the best book on healing mind and emotions with essential oils.

A Labor of Love,
This review is from: The Fragrant Heavens (Paperback)
One can easily tell that the author has not only spent much time studying and working with this aspect of aromatherapy, but the writing was purely a labor of love. Her other books are very good. This one is excellent. Even people who do not particularly do this type of practice will appreciate the detailed knowledge provided and the author's deep respect for the subject.

Heavenly,
By
This review is from: The Fragrant Heavens (Paperback)
When there are so many readymade products on the market, why do people take so much time to create their own? Reading "The Fragrant Heavens" supplies key answers to this question, the most significant is our desire to tap into the spiritual dimensions of plants. "The Fragrant Heavens" is another stellar work by Valerie Ann Worwood. This is a book to treasure and to give as as a gift to anyone involved in holistic health or spirituality.
