Essential oils are a gift from natural pure concentrated oils of "essence"

directly derived from a variety of plants from all over the world. These pure

essential oils have been used since ancient times and are proven through

scientific methods of bringing out the psychological and physical well-being.

There are over 90 varieties of well-being essential oils, each fitting into

one of three categories of Absolutes, CO2s, and Hydrosols. The name of

Essential Oils is a blanket term of all three areas of oils. These essential

oils are not at all the same as fragrance oils or perfume oils. Essential

oils are purely natural and perfume oils are chemical based; being mostly or

completely unnatural and will have no therapeutic benefits like essential

oils are proven to contain.

These are successfully used in several ways and have many benefits. There are

some oils that work very well in being a natural bug repellent and pesticide.

One essential oil that works against bugs is the Citronella essential plant

oil. Some of the other essential oil bug repellents are lavender, and

peppermint. Although these oils are put into candles, they too can be used

in concentrated form by putting a few drops around the inside windows and

doors when they are open during the warm months. But when using any essential

oil, take precautions not to put were your pets or children will have direct

contact to skin with any concentrated oils, no direct contact onto fragile

areas of décor. Citronella, peppermint and lavender bug repellent candles can

be bought almost anywhere during the spring and summers for enjoying the

outdoors in the evenings without all the warm weather bugs around.

Essential oils are known to be natural energy boosters through the aromas in

the air being taken in while breathing. Certain blends of essential oils are

proven to provide specific synergistic therapeutic actions when taken in

through the air in a work area or throughout your home. These correctly

blended oils will give a greater benefit when working together than if the

oils are independently working in an area. Proper blending is always

important for reaping the maximum benefits of what you desire the specific

oils to do. There are many varieties of already properly blended types of

candles that can be purchased in most all natural stores and shops. These

shops also usually contain all of what is needed to blend your own oils and

candle making items for being able to make your very own blends of candles.

It is very important though to remember that essential oils are flammable, so

caution and proper usage is very important.
