Kim and Tonya journey through the senses through the bounties of Mother Earth. Discussion ranges from aromatherapy to getting out into nature.
Aromatherapy is a concentrated energy in the shape of a scent. Essential or ethereal oils consist of the concentrate of hundreds of petals, plant parts or tree resins obtained by steam distillation or a pressed then bottled. The olfactory nerve is in direct contact with the brain. The mucus membrane in our noses can discern tens of thousands of different scent molecules. Our emotional memory is particularly sensitive to scent.
Breathing in the mildness of nature and breathe out stress.
The word natural calls up visions of green for Kim. But as an acquaintance once said to her plants, mushrooms and animals come in all colors of the rainbow let children paint and draw in all colors. The earliest proof of the use of natural colors are cave paintings in ochre and charcoal from 40,000 years ago.
Unadulterated nature is the best provider, herbs, mood enhancers, scents, colors, healing, warming and comfort all of these resources are treasures.
