The power of aromatherapy
If you mediate or practice yoga, you probably know about the mental healing and "cooling" powers of aromatherapy. The scents of many different products can evoke a whirlwind of mental responses to creating a quiet and calming effect for many people.Aromatherapeutic products vary widely in effectiveness, I've found. Those mass-market products that make scents using chemicals and other non-natural items may indeed have a smell, but it just does not seem natural to the trained nose. Those products that have essential oils and unadulterated fragrances from natural sources, well, can be on the other end of the spectrum.
Calming down from a hard day at the office can easily be taken care of by a decent after-hours dose of aromatherapy. My advice: seek out the most natural products you can. Then, enjoy.
