Holistic Health

There is nothing better, in my opinion, than walking into a restaurant and smelling freshness: coffee, foods being prepared and maybe a hint of lemon.  Consciously or unconsciously, we use our sense of smell to judge what our experience may be like.

Diffuses Essential Oils into the air...
Our homes are not much different.  A home’s healthfulness and cleanliness is important.  That is why retailers offer such a wide array of chemical sprays, gels, solids and plug-ins to scent our spaces. Three-quarters of all American homes are now scented with some type of commercial air freshener, an increase of nearly 30 percent since 1999.

Synthetic scents contain harmful chemicals. A study published in the Archives of Environmental Health linked chronic exposure to the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air fresheners to headaches and depression in new mothers and diarrhea and earaches in their babies.

Harmful VOCs in air fresheners include benzene and formaldehyde, which are byproducts of the manufacturing process. Benzene exposure can damage bone marrow, which can decrease red blood cells and affect immunity. Long-term exposure to airborne benzene has also been linked to increased risk of anemia and leukemia. Formaldehyde, a known carcinogenic neurotoxin, can irritate the eyes, nose, throat and skin.

Most air fresheners—even some labeled “all natural”—use phthalates as fixatives. Easily inhaled or absorbed through the skin, these chemicals accumulate in the body’s fatty tissue and liver, where they can remain for decades. High phthalate levels have been shown to cause low sperm counts and reproductive damage to male rat fetuses.

BUT WHAT CAN I DO?  Easy!  Insert Essential Oils into your life!  The better the grade/quality, the better results you will have.  Meaning: if you buy your oils in a store, you are “probably” getting perfume grade instead of something that is therapeutic-organic-and non-adulterated. 

Using essential oils in your home can allow you to “treat” what ails you and your family at the same time, sharing an aroma that is inviting, and welcoming to your guests.  Essential oils are good for you, most are safe on pets and small children.
