Valerie Ann Worwood – författare

Valerie Ann Worwood's The Fragrant Pharmacy has become the classic encyclopaedia of aromatherapy and essential oils. Now, in this companion volume, The Fragrant Mind, she paves a unique new way for aromatherapy, concentrating on the emotional, psychological and mood-changing effects of nature's essential oils. The Fragrant Mind falls into three parts. Part One presents a fascinating background to the subject, and explains how essential oils work on the brain. Part Two explains how essential oils can enhance emotional well-being and promote positive feelings, and includes a practical A-Z section which advises on a wide range of emotional problems, from stress and depression to moodiness and insomnia. Part Three introduces a whole new concept in aromatherapy - personality enhancement - and explains the particular characteristics of individual essential oils and how they can be matched to human personality types. You can find out, for example, whether you are a Floral, Herbie, Rootie, Woodie, Fruitie or Seedie type, and create your own tailor-made personality blends. Encyclopaedic in scope, and based on the most up-to-date research, The Fragrant Mind offers a wealth of information in an easy, accessible style, and shows the way in which essential oils can influence our minds and emotions.

The search for spiritual enlightenment has become a major force in the modern world, as people seek a sense of being that goes beyond their need for material goods. With The Fragrant Heavens Valerie Ann Worwood breaks new ground by examining the use of fragrance in spirituality. Drawing on the pioneering research of eminent scientists and leading spiritual teachers, The Fragrant Heavens provides comprehensive advice on the use of fragrance in many fields of spiritual practice being used today. It describes how plant energies can effect a positive connection between the physical and spiritual self, and how fragrance is associated with the human aura. Extensive exercises and formulas demonstrate how aroma can be used in healing, prayer and meditation. Finally, The Fragrant Heavens provides a definitive reference to over seventy oils, explaining their uses with regard to spiritual and vibrational medicine. Valerie Ann Worwood began her study of how the body, mind and spirit are enhanced through the use of essential oils and aromatherapy treatments in her bestselling books The Fragrant Pharmacy and The Fragrant Mind. Now, in The Fragrant Heavens, she concludes her exploration, providing a truly revelatory and comprehensive study that will guide you in your search for spiritual awareness.
