Making Scents
to change our ways
The Secret Life of Plants
Tompkins and Bird_1973/89
Plants are sentient and intelligent
They are connected to all naturally occurring
environmental effects: sun, water, wind,
lightening, seasons….
And those caused by man: pesticides,
herbicides, GMOs, chem-trails….
Each effect on a plant
….Is an effect on us.
Secrets of the Soil _1998
We are part of a symbiotic relationship of:
Oxygen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen,
carbon, minerals, nutrients,
“life-blood” and constant flow of energy!
We can not sustain the current disconnect and
poison to our planet,
….her soil ….and our souls
….and Source of energy we all share.
We can not heal
without honoring this relationship.
Our current path is unsustainable.
We Lost Touch with Nature
Walking barefoot
Breathing clean air
Drinking pure water
Eating real food
Treating our body’s with respect
Trusting our inner voice
Current Scientific Evidence
Our choices are more powerful than our
inherited DNA
Epigenetics proves Nurturing our bodies can
change the Nature of our genetics
Family Dis-ease is a blueprint we can
influence and reconstruct.
Dis-ease is often a choice based on a pattern
we agree to
Current Health Care
Unaffordable and unsustainable
Each generation is sinking further from reality
and deeper into debt
We are what we eat! (Adelle Davis)
Reducing health care costs is not going to
come from the bureaucracy that created it
The Oldest Form of Medicine
Ancient Knowledge
Oils are 100-1,000 times more powerful than
fresh or dried herbs, tinctures and even
FOOD!
Essential oils are the aromatic, volatile liquids extracted
through a distillation process from flowers, herbs, seeds,
leaves, stems, bark, and roots of shrubs and trees that
contain the “life force energy” in a concentrated form.
Essential oils pre-date ancient Egypt. Pharaohs were
entombed with their gold, jewels and precious oils.
Hippocrates fumigated a city to stop an epidemic.
Knowledge Suppressed
The harsher the soil – the more potent the oil
What stresses plants in nature, transfers to
their potency for survival
Viruses and bacteria can not outsmart plantbased medicine.
Hundreds+ of chemical constituents are far
more complex than the single or limited
extractions for drug-based medicine.
Aromatherapy’s Power
Of the 5 senses ~ the sense of smell is 1,000x
more powerful ~ with a direct line
to the center of your brain!
The brain’s ability to sort out the complex
chemicals of an odor is immediate!
Fear: fire, decay, body odor
Safety: bread, vanilla, family, home, tribal
Physical reactions: citrus/salivate,
cinnamon/blood, sugar/insects…. attraction to
partners
Emotional: safety, confidence, creativity
Illness: body odor, imbalanced acids, feces
We are effected by the vibrational

Chemistry Basics
All Essential oils are anti-microbial (self-protecting)
One oil may contain thousands of constituents with
specific actions we respond to…
Aldehydes, Ketones, Esters, Sesquiterpenes, Phenols,
Monoterpenols, Oxides, Monoterpenes, Sesquiterpenols
When an EO does not perform (with a predicted chemical
behavior), it is still behaving as it is meant to behave.
*Quantum= it adjusts to your frequency!
Chemical profiles left intact ~guarantee efficacy

Cause and Effect
Synthetic chemicals effect your mind,
body, spirit, home…. All Life
80,000+ chemicals used in products –
most are unregulated
We were convinced that low doses were
safe
Yet there is obvious evidence they are
harming humans and the earth
A compromised brain can not make
good choices in a complex world
The Secret Life of Oils
My sacred belief…. “plant intelligence for our
health and wellbeing belongs to ALL!”
The healthier you become, the more you
experience nature’s power = Your Power
Acidic/emotional layers must be peeled
Healing energy requires good nutrition
The more you use Aromatherapy, the closer
you will come to feeling these connections:
plant>human>energy=Life!
