POCKET GUIDE for Essential Oils, January 25, 2009
This review is from: Quick Reference Guide for Using Essential Oils 11th Edition November 2008 (Spiral-bound)
This a a great pocket guide of a larger book - Reference Guide for Essential Oils. It can fit in a purse, book bag, and brief case and contains all 600 items of usage for physical and emotional health issues with 275 pages.
The essential oil blends are Young Living, however the single oils can be applied to 100% theraputic grade essential oils. (Why would you want to use anything else?) Also, the book does explain blending.
As a spiral bound book, it can be opened to a page and layed flat for easy usage, and has all the same charts: VITAFLEX HAND & FEET, AURICULAR EMOTIONAL THERAPY AND RAINDROP THERAPY.
GREAT BOOK FOR THE PRICE.
5 1/2" X 6" X 5/8"

A lot of information included, February 17, 2010
This review is from: Quick Reference Guide for Using Essential Oils 11th Edition November 2008 (Spiral-bound)
I'm a Massage Therapist and really know nothing about essential oils and Aromatherapy. Other reviewers know more about how good the content of the book is and effectiveness of suggested combinations of oils. but there is certainly an abundance of information in this little binder. It is little. It just bigger than a paperback, but it has a nice sturdy cover and a spiral binder. This allow you to flip the book open and have it stay on the page.
Soon, I'm heading back to school for another year, so I can learn about this Aromatherapy. This is course required reading for me. My school would not have chosen this book if it weren't a good material resource.
What I really like; the pages are alphabetized. It appears there are essential oil combinations to positively affect everything...from A to Z. This includes physical as well as emotional issues. It's all in there. In the bibliography, they have listed all kinds for resources for additional information, books, videos, and products. Included is a body systems chart that shows what oils positively affect individual organ systems. The have even included a Vita Flex Feet Chart for Reflexology. It's very clear. This is something I can use right now in treatment.
There's a number of seller's offering this book. The seller I chose was Energy Essentials. Amazon fulfilled and delivered in warp speed. My book is new.
I'm really looking forward to learning about Alternative Therapies and Chinese Medicine and seeing the results I can get. With this book, keep your glasses and a bright light nearby. I've seen a lot. My eyes are old...for sure, but this is the smallest print I have seen in a book, ever. I hope I don't get a headache while reading, otherwise I'll be like the mad scientist trying to mix combinations up. The print is really small.

Amazing Essential Oils Guide!, April 25, 2010
This review is from: Quick Reference Guide for Using Essential Oils 11th Edition November 2008 (Spiral-bound)
I love this reference guide! It is really helpful with conditions in easy to find alphabetical order. Just the right size for taking anywhere. It is fairly specific to the Young Living products, but still good for overall essential oil use. The only thing missing are recipes to help with proportions for mixing oils.
