The art of Aromatherapy to enhance or modify mood has been used over the ages; scented baths were common in Ancient Egypt and Rome. Cleopatra was said to have bathed in lavender scented milk. Mark Antony most likely preferred the aroma of dill and coriander. We are once again learning to appreciate the importance of aromatics in our lives. The calming effect of chamomile and the stimulating fragrance of wintergreen are no longer considered merely folklore, but instead, are viewed as valid therapies in todays medicinally savvy world. Even if you dont have your own herb garden, there are many sources of fresh or dried herbs and essential oils to supply the fragrance for making organic beauty treatments.
