The Healing Power of Essential Oils

 

The Healing Power of Essential Oils by Eric Zielinskie, DC is a wonderful resource for essential oils.  I am very new to the essential oil world and have been searching for something to help get me started. This book contains 150 recipes and remedies. There is a link to videos that are very helpful. There is also very basic information on getting started to more advanced methods.

This book is written from a Christian perspective which I absolutely love. I suffer from migraines and have been hoping to find a more natural way to treat them. I hate the way my medications make me feel. There is a recipe in this book that I did and I can honestly say as long as I use it several times and at the onset of symptoms it has helped tremendously at keeping them at bay. I’ve used the mixture several times and have had great results. I’m hoping this is a long term thing. I am not sure it will keep all of them away but any help whatsoever is good for me.  I have recently purchased more oils to try out some other things and cannot wait to see the results.

The author gives good advice on choosing oils and his top 8 must haves are included. He also gives good advice on how to store and use oils in different ways from diffusion to bathing. There is also a recipe for Mrs. Z’s carrier oil that I can’t wait to try.

The only thing negative I can say about this book is I am not a huge fan of the paper it is printed on. Several pages were slightly creased when it arrived and I managed to get a few pages damp with a towel and they crinkled pretty badly. The paper is the equivalent in my opinion as what you would find in a child’s drawing or sketching pad. I would not let this deter me in purchasing or recommending this book to anyone who wants to learn more.

I highly recommend this to beginners and novice people who want to learn about oils and get started easily with them.  I have other essential oil books and this is my absolute favorite.

I received this book at no charge from bloggingforbooks.com in exchange for an honest review. You can purchase a copy here.
