Library Journal Review
Essential Oils : All-Natural Remedies and Recipes for Your Mind, Body and Home

Nearing 35 years in the market, Neal's Yard Remedies is a trusted resource for holistic wellness and beauty products and treatments. Book sections are color coded, with content laid out clearly. Despite the large amount of detail, the format keeps readers from feeling overwhelmed, and there is a logical progression of information. Overviews of oil sourcing, production, and uses are followed by essential and base oil descriptions. Each essential oil entry includes icons (e.g., compress, diffuser) for best uses. The "Essential Oil Recipes" section provides more complex instructions and combinations. Finally, the "Healing Remedies" section is organized by conditions, such as digestive problems, acne, or insomnia. The work ends with a useful glossary and excellent six-page index. VERDICT This updated text is an ideal introduction for readers who want to learn about the many uses for essential oils and a solid resource for those who already use them.-Meagan Storey, Virginia Beach © Copyright 2016.
