Cedarwood and sandalwood are great for relaxing, as is nag champa.

@PatientlyWaiting25 I have always been a fan of those three, as well as jasmine.

@NativePortlander1970 I'm not a lover of Jasmine I find it too 'sickly' floral but I believe that the oils choose you not the other way around 😊

@PatientlyWaiting25 Indeed

Yes, I'm an aromatherapist so I will use pretty much all of them complimentary to standard health care. Many essential oils when ingested are toxic, nobody should be using them that way if you're not sure what your doing. Also, they can irritate skin so they need to be diluted and used with a carrier oil and patch tested, especially if you have allergies or sensitivity.

I love the smell of Bay Rum & Egyptian Musk! I don't wear oils anymore but I have alot of them just for aromatherapy.

A friend made an oil for me for pain and one to help me sleep. She told me to put it on my feet. I like the way they both smell. I told her i want more of the sleep oil.

No I don't ingest them, but they are in my candles plus I use a few to scent pinecones.

I use them in difusers, but generally, I consider them an aromatic addition to my environment.

I have tried a few of them, no special effects except for the soft feeling on my skin and mild fragrance.

Ive had other women force them on me for various reasons but i never went to acquire them for myself.. i have a sensitive nose
I just use them in my hair products I make tbh. 🤷🏾

No. Many are poisonous. It's not normal to even touch those chemicals.

An entire industry was born due to people not understanding that "essential" in this context means "of the essence", not "needed" or "necessary".
