Great to hear this coverage. I have been a believer and made my own oils for the several years. They are great for the Spirit!

Nice topic. I love Lavender oil, wonderful smell and it is also great for burns.

I have used Aura Cacia products for about 3 years, it was really neat to hear directly from them. Thanks for making this happen!

Actual leaves of herbs and plants directly in the bath or in your house is a great way to relax your senses.

I agree Beth. We use both fresh herbs, oils and candles to set the mood for a bath that will wash the day away.

My wife turned me onto E-oils, and no longer do I use cologne- I’m an herbal oil man now! Thanks for the great coverage.

Hi:
I use eucliptus as air freshner. I usually put 3 to 4 drops on a
spray with about 3 ounce water. I spray in the room, but I don’t
smell the aroma. Could you tell me what is the best application to use eucliptus?
thanks
