Customer Review: Dream Pillows a book of magic
Folklore informs us that sleeping on the herb thyme will allow us to see fairies, one of my fondest desires. Jim Long’s “Making Herbal Dream Pillows” has the recipe for making dreams come true or at least more pleasant. Dream pillows have been made for several centuries and are tailor made for our time, incorporating our 90’s love for aromatherapy, dream analysis and all things mystic. This well written and beautifully illustrated book contains recipes for dreams to heat up your romance life, to soothe your stress, dreams for traveling and for prophesy. There are mixes to inspire your creativity, to experience the sense of the great outdoors and to evoke holiday dreams of grandma and apple pie. You are encouraged to grow your own herbs for your dream pillows, but if you don’t want to garden, there is an excellent resource section in the back to order the herbs or the blends that you’d like to use. Now to go get that thyme…

This book is absolutly wonderful. It is extreamly detailed with beautiful graphics, and how to guides.

Happy reading -Daddakamabb
Customer Review: A very good purchase!
I bought this book a week ago and it’s hardly left my side since. I looked through so many Aromatherapy‘>Aromatherapy books in the shops, before I came across this one, that just had hundreds of pages of plain text with no illustrations or colour. That kind of book is fine if you’re an experienced Aromatherapist who just wants to quickly look something up for a patient etc. For home use I find that kind of book a little bit boring. BUT…this book is just perfect. It’s got all the information you could possibly want for home use and it is beautifully illustrated with everything from pictures of the plants and oils to how to give yourself and others a massage. There are facinating chapters on the history of Aromatherapy‘>Aromatherapy, home remedies, massage, the plants and oils, and loads more. The book covers 65 of the most popular and widely available oils. All nicely illustrated and described with added information such as safety data, aromatherapy use, extraction etc. I purchased this book along with it’s accompanying guide “The Illustrated Encyclopedia Of Essential Oils”, also by Julia Lawless, which is equally as good as this one. But, if you only wanted to buy one book for general home use then I recommend this one. You can’t go wrong with this book. It’s a great read and it’s very well laid out for quick reference use. Definately a very valued addition to my book shelf.

Aromatherapy‘>Aromatherapy (Illustrated Guide)
For anybody who is unsure about the precise differences between the alternative healing arts, the Illustrated Guide series, printed by Element publishers, is a superb place to start. Aromatherapy‘>Aromatherapy: An Illustrated Guide details exactly how essential oils can be used to treat many illnesses and conditions, and is one of a series including books on Reflexology, Homeopathy, Flower Essences, Vitamins & Minerals, and Herbalism.

Like the companion editions, this book is superbly illustrated throughout with photographs and pictures, and presents information in an easily accessible and attractive way. In addition to the history of the art, how to practice it and how to prepare the oils, the book details the chemical components of essential oils, how to blend them and which carrier oils to use when. A series of sections on massage prepare you technically and the extensive listings of the different essences give you a great starting point if you are new to aromatherapy, or a great reference point if you are more experienced. A glossary of bodily symptoms, sections on visiting a practitioner and specific uses of aromatherapy, as well as a bibliography and list of useful addresses make this a great all-round reference. –Lucie Naylor

Customer Review: Highly Comprehensive
I was very pleasantly suprized with the wealth of information contained within these lovely pages!The price of this book is certainly no representation of the quality, as this is a highly comprehensive guide for the novice such as myself. Obviously the author is very competent in her field, as she has explained the use in history of each plant/oil aswell as it`s medicinal use both physically and psycologically. The illustrations are second to none - especially the step by step guide to aromatherapy in massage - and she demonstrates precisely how to make up the massage oil into safe quantities. Having read this book I feel fully confident in trying out her lotions,potions and using the oils for ailments and as a mood lifter on those down days!Would highly reccomend this book.

Customer Review: Working in Synergy
This book provides an extensive guide on the spiritual and psycological effects of Aromatherapy‘>Aromatherapy, but not only that. It proposes a merging of Aromatherapy‘>Aromatherapy with the oriental healing system based on the ying yang and elements theory. As a Feng Shui practicioner and a professional Aromathepist, I found this book deeply moving. As other books, It gives very helpful blending hints and recipes. The new aspect, though, talks about the oils's effects on the human Qi (energy). It effectivelly discusses the oil's main element (fire, water, earth, metal, wood), in relation to the emotional aspects that the elements spring in the psyche, and the specificaly related organ. Yes, the elements healing system part may seem basic for people that have workng with oriental medicine, but it is wonderfully explained for the newcomer. I feel this book has helped me to take my practice a bit further. I needed something more than the chemical aspects of the oils (I have several books on those), and this books was a wonderful answer to that.
