with grace, love and gratitude.
Beyond the deeply assuring wisdom she offered are the many gifts of wise, practical advice and heart-
centered guidance she gave endlessly. Her understanding of the natural world, plant medicines, essentia

husband of 27 years, Jeff, and Raes sister business partner, Jill.

Historical Use of Aromatic Plants in the GardenBy Sharon Falsetto, CA, BA, (Hons)
"If one way be better than another, thatyou may be sure is natures way."Aristotle
Gardens, or "yards" as they are more commonly
known in the United States, have been around for
literally thousands of years; they are a place of
tranquility and relaxation, a place to unwind from
the stresses of life. Whatever shape, size or form
gardens take, they all have many things in
common; the visual stimulation of a bright array of
owers, the feel of the cool shade of a welcome tree
in the heat of the midday sun, the sound of a
trickling fountain or waterfall or the fragrant aroma
of roses. All of these things touch one or all of ourve senses.
The Egyptians show evidence of gardening on
tombs dating back to 1500 BC. The Egyptians used
many aromatic plants and herbs for both medicinal
and perfumery uses. Kyphi was a well know
Egyptian fragrance blended from plants such a
juniper, peppermint, myrrh, cinnamon and saffron
Persia was also renowned for its fragrant gardens afar back as 2,500 years ago. Indeed, the mo
famous of these gardens must surely be th
Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seve
Wonders of the World. They were built in the 6t
century BC by Nebuchadnezzar II for his wife
Mayitis, who was apparently homesick for he
native country, although other writings sugges
that they were built by another Persian King, Cyru
for a courtesan. Whichever of these stories is tru
descriptions concur that these gardens were vision
of water, cool terraces and an exotic blend o
fragrant trees, owers and herbs.
The Romans learned about gardens mainly from
the Greeks, notably from Discorides, but were als
aware of the Egyptian ideals. They were in the hab
of building large gardens and devoted a lot o
reverence to the rose. Banqueting guests wer
showered with rose petals in an attempt to comba
any drunken shenanigans; Nero apparently had h
banqueting oors strewn with rose petals. The roswas seen as somewhat of a "status" symbol in th
Roman garden. The ancient wall paintings
Pompeii in Italy, laid undiscovered under the lava o
Mount Vesuvius for centuries, also show th
elaborate gardens that were prevalent at that tim
and the number of aromatic plants and herbs tha
were in everyday use.
The Roman Empire extended to the conquest o
Great Britain and consequently the Roman
introduced a number of now well known plants antrees such as cherry, peach, parsley, fenne
rosemary, sage and thyme. The herbs that th
Romans introduced to Great Britain became a
essential part of the medieval monastery garden
and remain today an integral part of an Englis
country garden.
Gardens in England varied over different historic
periods; for example, the Tudors were heavi
inuenced by the Italians, whereas the Stuarts wer
more inuenced by the French style. Large garden

were normal for huge, stately country piles;
however even small cottage gardens were
crammed with herbs and aromatic plants, used forboth culinary and medicinal purposes. It was only
with the onset of the Industrial Revolution, when
people left the country for the cities in search of
their "fortune" that gardening declined to a lesser
scale and the medicinal value of plants were
forgotten for a period of time.
Hospitals are realizing the benets of providing a
garden for their patients recovery and many are
putting money into providing a garden because of
this. One study, the Joint Commission for theAccreditation of Hospitals Organization, found:
"Patients and visitors need connections with nature
through exterior spaces, plants, halls and TL
(therapeutic landscaping)" (1999). (Source: Journal
of Mediterranean Ecology Vol. 8 2007)
An aromatherapy garden focuses on the scents of
the plants and owers in it. The scents released
from plants, trees and owers are the basis for the
essential oils used in aromatherapy. Essential oils
are volatile (from the Latin volare, meaning to y),which means they evaporate at or above room
temperature. Heat releases the fragrance of the oils
(essentially the plant's perfume or avor), hence the
more noticeable fragrances generated by a walk
through a summer garden. In the winter these
fragrances are less noticeable as the cooler air
prevents easy evaporation of the oils from plants.
Flowers for an aromatherapy garden
"I'd rather have roses on my table than diamonds onmy neck" Emma Goldman
There are lots of owers that you can choose for an
aromatic garden, depending on your location, size
of space and personal preferences. These are a few
of my favorite owers for an aromatherapy garden.
Rose (Rosa damascena): rose is perhaps my most
favorite ower as it reminds me of England;
however, rose is actually a true native of the Far
East, brought to England in the trading of spice
and other exotic goods. Some hardier varieties o
rose tolerate the sub-zero temperatures of ou
Arizona winter and provide lasting colo
throughout the summer and fall. Extraction of rosessential oil is difficult and thus costly, making i
subject to adulteration by some suppliers. It take
about 60,000 rose petals to produce one ounce o
essential oil, so take advantage of the natura
fragrance of a rose in your backyard for a fraction o
that cost!
The Healing Power of Scented Gardens
"The greatest gift of the garden is threstoration of the ve senses" Hanna Rion
All of our senses are stimulated by the sights
sounds, smell, touch (and even taste!) of a garden.
Vincent Van Gogh spent time (at his own
admission) at the Asylum of Saint Paul de Mausole
in Saint-Remy, France and this was where he
painted one of his most famous series of paintings
Iris. He was apparently inspired and healed by th
surrounding gardens of the Asylum.
Trees for an aromatherapy garden
"Of the innite variety of fruits which spring from
the bosom of the earth, the trees of the wood are th
greatest in dignity" Susan Fenimore Cooper

There are also a large number of fragrant trees from
pine forests and cedar woods to the more exotic
fruity fragrances of the citrus trees to choose fromfor your aromatherapy garden; here's a couple of
my favorite trees for an aromatherapy garden:
Orange (Citrus sinensis): orange is my favorite
citrus tree, simply because it is so uplifting and
nearly every part of the tree is used for
aromatherapy, (leaves - Petitgrain (Citrus
aurantium var amara), owers - orange
blossom/neroli (Citrus aurantium var amara) fruit -
sweet orange (Citrus sinensis).
You can also both eat and drink the fruit!
Orange reminds me of Spain, where there a lot of
orange trees growing, but it is also grown in other
Mediterranean countries as well as worldwide,
including several states of America (Florida and
California). However, orange was an original native
of China. An orange tree grows to about 2 ft. Sweet
orange essential oil is usually liked by children,
pregnant women and the elderly due to its gentle
nature.
Pine (Pinus sylvestris): there are a number of
varieties of pine tree but the Scotch pine is usually
the favorite for aromatherapy use. Pine is a native
of Eurasia; it is also found in the cooler climates of
Eastern United States, Europe, Russia and a number
of the Baltic States, in addition to Scandinavian
countries such as Finland. Pine trees can reach 131
feet. Pine takes its name from Scotland, where it is
thought to have covered a lot of the countryside at
one time. The fragrant aroma of the pine tree isknown for its many healing properties including
respiratory, sinus, anti-viral and anti-bacterial.
Cyprus (Cupressus sempervirens): cypress is an
ancient species of tree; it takes its Latin name
(sempervirens, meaning evergreen) to heart, as
some cypress trees are thought to be over 2,000
years old. Consequently, a number of folklore and
traditions are associated with it. Cypress is a highly
aromatic tree found in a number of European
countries, although other species of the cyprus tree
are found throughout the world, fo
non-aromatherapy purposes, including the Arizon
cypress tree. The properties of cypress in
aromatherapy use include calming the nervou
system, circulatory problems, antiseptic andastringent properties.
Plants for an aromatherapy garden
Other plants for an aromatherapy garden include:
Peppermint (Mentha piperita): peppermint i
cultivated worldwide and is a favorite in many herb
gardens; it has been used for centuries. The uses o
peppermint in aromatherapy include a treatmen
for respiratory and digestive problems. It is alsoused in skin care, as well as being useful for the
nervous system.

Geranium (Pelargonium graveolens): geranium is
often referred to as the poor man's rose because of
its similarities in fragrance of true rose; however,
geranium is a worthy plant in its own right.Geranium essential oil is actually extracted from the
leaves of the plant and not the owers. It is a
popular choice for women in treating a lot of
"women's" problems (including PMS, menopausal
problems and excellent for skin care for all ages).
Geranium is available in a large variety of colors and
species for the garden and will continue to bloom
throughout the summer and right through fall in
the state of Arizona.
Thyme (Thymus vulgaris): there are a number ofspecies of thyme but sweet or common thyme
(Thymus vulgaris) was one of the earliest known
medicinal plants in Western herbal medicine. It
grows extensively throughout the world including
the Mediterranean region, the United States, China,
Russia and Turkey. Thyme leaves emit a pleasant
aromatic aroma and is used in culinary dishes too.
Thyme is used in aromatherapy for digestive,
respiratory, antiseptic and antibacterial problems.
It grows to a height of 18 inches.

Flower Essences: Bridging Body and SpiritRobert Rogers & Laurie Szott-Rogers
Alberta Wild Rose
The color of Albertas Wild Rose ranges from white
to intense pink. It is related to the heart chakra,
both in its color and in the shape of individual
petals. It has been known through time as the
ower of love. While the ower opens it forms a cup
shape, receptive and gentle. As the 5 petalled
ower blooms it releases a magnicent scent. Its
perfume to me, is one of the most appealing in the
prairie summer, delicate enough to attract devas
and encourage the birds and butteries to mate in
blissful union. Yet the rose is a study in contrasts,
gentle color and scent, erce barbs for protection
and a determined forceful root system, allow it togrow in situations that are less than optimal for
many plants. The Alberta Wild Rose is a ower of
replenishment. Its physical properties reect its
use. The gentleness of the color and odor mirrors its
ability to bring hope. Its tenacious roots show an
aptitude to hold on, even when it feels bleak or
hopeless. The Wild Rose barbs represent the self-
preserving, instinct useful for protecting itself and
others around it.
This ower essence may be applicable if there is a
tendency toward apathy. The person may indicate
that they are in a life situation that deadens them
rather than nourishes them, but they need to hang
on and survive until the situation improves.
This essence also helps us deal with the most
difficult transition in our experience death. This
essence may aid us when facing that grief. In this
case it can help connect us to the Source and ou
personal belief in soul continuity. This also applie
when parts of us are repressed or dead. This dead
ening feeling can happen after trauma, a barelationship, or as a consequence of long term, lo
self- esteem.
When we get too bogged down by routine, o
duties we might forget to laugh, dance, and sin
We may also neglect to connect to ourselves an
others, especially in a heartfelt way. These frozen o
dead parts of our psyche can revive, as the sprin
does after winter. Alberta Wild Rose helps awake
numb parts.
Case StudyOne woman noted that when taking Alberta Wi
Rose essence that her heart seemed to thaw after
few years of isolation in her signicant relationshi
Not only that my husband also took the essenc
and went through a transformation where h
decided our relationship came before his career an
recommitted. I felt joyous and alive.
Alberta Wild Rose is a ower essence of compassio
relating to the heart chakra. It helps release bitte
ness by recognizing the beauty that does exist one's self, one's life and one's choices. It is a
essence that lets us see our life is a reection of o
choices, and if we change our choices, we chang
our life. It may help us feel young when we thin
we are too old to move on. It reminds us of ou
youth. Not that which has gone by, but that whic
lies ahead. Alberta Rose ower essence also help
us overcome grief, allowing joy to emerge.
It is difficult to be apathetic or bored around Wi
Rose essence, because it brings out the curiou
hopeful child in us all. It allows us to grasp the powerful truth- that we are responsible for the decision
in our life and we have the power to make th
changes, necessary to have our life reect ou
consciousness.
Alberta Wild Rose is related to the planet Venus. I
loveliness helps us renew our commitment to ou
life and who and what we love. It is an essence o
hope, joy, and tenacity. This queen of the Canadia
Prairies is a ower of self- empowerment an
sensual beauty.Continued...page 10

Exercise
Make a list of what you are bored or under- involved
with. What do these situations have in common?Are there life lessons associated with these circum-
stances? If so, what are they? Have you learned
them? If not, what do you need to do to let them go?
Are you ready to move on? When and where in your
life are you excited, happy and enthused? What do
these situations have in common?
What is stopping you from being enthused, hopeful
and happy more often? How can you shape your life
so you fall back in love with it?
Honeysuckle
Honeysuckle ower essence is related to the soul
qualities of hardiness and perseverance. There can
be a thin edge at times between stubbornness and
mental xation. It is important that thoughts and
action are completed for the appropriate reasons.
If the reason is mainly to control self and others due
to constant fear, less pleasure is experienced in life.
Honeysuckle is the ower essence for those whofear failure or the responsibilities of success. It helps
those individuals who will avoid completion at therst sign of challenge or obstruction. In some, this
has become ingrained to the point of inertia in both
thought and action. At these times, the honey-
suckle ower essence acts as a catalyst.
It is particularly indicated for those who feel the
need to be employed in "safe" employment situa-
tions. Not only is this illusionary; but it prevents th
soul from expansion. This can create physica
disease in the body if left unattended.
It also relates to holding onto the past, as if it ibetter than the present. There is a tendency to
remember foods, actions and events from the old
days being sweeter. Idealization of what wa
prevents the individual from moving forward in
their lives and being grateful for the gifts they do
have.
* Information is for general interest and is not a diagno
sis or panacea. The essences can safely be added to any
health care or psychological program. Flower essence
will not, however, take the place of medical or psycho
logical treatment. Do not replace your medications wit
essences.

Flower Power for Pets to the Rescue (sm)Bach Flower Essences for Fear IssuesBy Kelly Holland Azzaro, RA, CCAP, CBFP, LMT
Does your animal friend have fear issues? If so, you
may want to consider trying the Bach Flower
Remedies. Natural ower essences can be helpful
with so many emotional issues, including fear
based behaviors. Our animal friends can suffer from
some of the same type of fears as people, fear and
anxiety may include: fear of loud noises (reworks,
gunshots and thunder), separation and travel
anxiety, phobias and more.
What are Bach Flower Essence Remedies?
Bach Flower Remedies are derived from the essence
of a plant, ower, water or mineral. The essences
are created by a natural process called: sunlight
infusion method. Similar to homeopathy, theower essences are safe, gentle and easy to use. The
essences are typically taken in drop form diluted by
way of water and placed directly on the tongue or
mouth, or placed in water to drink.
Flower Essence Remedies are all natural, non-toxi
and do not interfere with any other treatments
therapies, supplements, herbs, oils etc. There are n
side effects. Flower Essences can be used wit
animals and people. They are not a substitute fo
medical treatment. Flower essences are
supportive natural tool that can also be combine
with other therapies such as acupuncture
aromatherapy, massage and energy therapies.
The Bach Flower Remedies were created in the earl
1900s by Dr. Edward Bach, an English physician
homeopath and bacteriologist. Dr. Bach wa
searching for a more natural and holistic approac
to healing for his patients. He also created seve
nosodes; a homeopathic alternative to vaccines. DBach passed away in 1936. All of his works an
wealth of knowledge is still being shared to thi
day, and is preserved by the Bach Centre in Mt
Vernon, England.
What are Flower Essence Remedies used for?
Flower Essence Remedies are typically used fo
balancing emotions and negative behavio
Essences allow for a gentle shift of the negativ
aspect to the positive for balance and harmony.
You may already be familiar with the popular owe
essence remedy called: Rescue Remedy, which i
sold world-wide in health food stores, holisti
health centers and by holistic veterinarians an
practitioners. Rescue Remedy is even available fo
purchase in some airport shops (useful for fear o
ying). This ower essence combination is usefu
for anxiety, shock and trauma and high stres
situations, and can be useful for supporting a calm
and peaceful state of being. Rescue Remedy is combination formula of ve individual owe
essence remedies: Cherry Plum (fear of losin
mental control/panic), Clematis (fainting

With the use of any of the ower essence remedies
it is important to note that they are not a substitute

basis. We must also take into consideration an
outside factors that may be contributing to th

death of a loved one past traumas or recen
adoption/rescue situation etc.

the time to do a complete consultation/evaluatio
and work with the client to select the proper owe
essence remedies for home use.

Launching Your Personal Care Product BrandTim Johansson
Finding the very best private label skin care manu-
facturer is perhaps the single most important deci-
sion you will make as you launch your personal care
product brand. To assist you in this decision here
are some things to consider:
First, remember that you are seeking a strategic
partner that will be responsible for the manufactur-
ing portion of your business. You are counting on
them to manufacture a safe and effective product.
Finding a credible manufacturer requires due
diligence. A personal recommendation is always
helpful but if you do not know an industry insider
you may consider an industry trade group. Industry
trade groups tend to be unbiased and thus a moretrusted source of information for and about the skin
care industry and has access to a database of
private label skin care manufacturers.
Once you have sourced some credible candidates
start with the basic questions like how long have
they been in business. Like a candidate in a job
interview, experience in private label skin manufac-
turing matters and you are putting your money
your brand reputation and your formulations int
their hands. So before you ask any other question
ask them how many years they have been in bus
ness.
Next, be certain to pay attention to the service yo
are receiving BEFORE you have a signed contrac
The kind of care and attention that you are receiv
ing as you explore says everything about what kin
of care and attention you will receive after you hav
a signed manufacturing contract. A high qualit
manufacturer will care about your business befor
before you are customer. If they are responsiv
during your exploration process they are likely bresponsive when they are your chosen manufa
turer.
Of course the price of the private label skin manu
facturers services matters and your ability t
deliver your product protability will determin
your long-term success. But also remember that th
nished price is not always the true nished pric

Launching Your Personal Care Product BrandTim Johansson
Continued...page 14
Hidden costs to your nal product cost are impor-
tant to note and this is no more prominent than in
the minimums that the manufacturer requires.While higher order minimums often reduce the
per-unit cost they also require signicantly more up
front investment capital and cash to carry the prod-
uct as inventory. Sometimes lower minimums with
a higher per unit price tag may actually be cheaper
if you explore these factors. In addition some
private label skin care manufacturers charge for
additional services like supplying the shipping
containers and many even reuse shipping boxes in
a manner that risks damage to your product once it
leaves the dock. Also, know that the geographiclocation of the manufacturer will impact the
nished price by adding transportation costs asso-
ciated with longer shipping distances.
Finally, the exploration into your private label skin
care manufacturer will deepen your experience and
knowledge of the personal care products industry
and you will begin to get a better sense of who the

Aromatherapy and Travel Ailments:Essential oils for use while travelling
Green Valley Aromatherapy
Ways to use Essential Oils While Travelling by
Land, Air or Sea
Essential oils are considered to be little miracles inbottles and are helpful in many situations. They
lend themselves well to helping with travel aches
and pains.
Essential Oils and Traveling by Airplane
When traveling by airplane remember to pack a
basic kit of essential oils in the checked luggage.
Oils to consider are Eucalyptus essential oil,
Lavender essential oil, Geranium essential oil,
Ginger essential oil, Peppermint essential oil,Rosemary essential oil and lavender hydrosol. If
airline rules allow, keep a small bottle of eucalyptus
essential oil and lavender hydrosol in carryon
luggage. Current rules allow non-ammable
materials of less than 3 ounces.
Preventing Ear and Sinus Discomfort
According to the American Academy of
Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Inc., ear
problems are the most common medical complaintof airplane travelers, and while they are usually
simple, minor annoyances, they occasionally result
in temporary pain and hearing loss. To avoid o
reduce the discomfort associated with ea
problems when traveling, deeply inhale Eucalyptu
essential oil prior to take-off and again whe
landing. The decongestant properties of eucalyptu
essential oil will help to ease popping ears an
sinus discomfort.
Refreshing with Lavender Hydrosol
Lavender hydrosol is wonderfully refreshing
particularly after a long, hot ight. Use it to freshe
up your face and for removing make-up. It may b

used undiluted in a compress on the neck,
shoulders and forehead to help reduce headaches,
tension and stress. Hydrosol is safe to use on
children so use it to wipe their sticky hands and
faces.
Reducing the Risk of Infection with Lavender and
Eucalyptus
The air system on airplanes tends to circulate
everyones germs leading to increased risk of
infection. Because Lavender essential oil is
anti-viral, use it and Eucalyptus essential oil (which
is anti-viral, anti-fungal, and antibacterial) to boost
the immune system. Make sure to drink lots of
water while ying and avoid diuretics and
stimulants.
Combating Nausea with Ginger and Peppermin
Essential Oil
When traveling by car, train, boat or bus, nause
and the resulting headache are often part of th
journey. Make sure to have some Ginger essentia
oil at hand. Apply several drops to a tissue or cotto
ball and inhale regularly. If a headache comes alon
following the nausea, apply peppermint to a tissu
and inhale.
Aromatherapy and Travel Fatigue
Arriving in airports after hours of ying and waitin
around can be exhausting and overwhelming.
Rosemary essential oil is considered a brai
stimulant and will help to clear a foggy mind. Appl
some to a tissue and inhale deeply. Staying health
before and during your travels will help to minimiz
travel fatigue. Ensure enough sleep is attained t
heal the body, keep the immune system ghtin
and feel refreshed.
Whether traveling by plane, train, boat, bus or car,
variety of ailments are sure to afflict the weartraveler. Be prepared by carrying a well-stocked
aromatherapy rst aid kit on every journey.

From the Aromahead Recipe Bookby Andrea Butje, LMT, Clinical Aromatherapist
Vanilla Infused Jojoba Oil
Buy whole vanilla bean pods and add 3 or 4 to a
large glass jar (16-32 oz. is good).
Fill the jar with jojoba and let it sit for about a
week.
Remove the vanilla bean pods and your left with
the most luscious vanilla infused jojoba for sugar
scrubs and other essential oil body-care products!
Coconut, Lime, Lavender & Vanilla
Sugar ScrubA fabulous, soft scrub for your skin
Ingredients
cup brown sugar
cup coconut oil
cup vanilla infused jojoba
30 drops distilled lime (Citrus aurantifolia)
30 drops lavender (Lavandula angustifolia)
Instructions
Combine all ingredients in a 12 oz container
Be sure to use **distilled** Lime as the cold
pressed lime is phototoxic.
Notes: I like to use a PET plastic container (12
oz or larger) and leave the scrub in the shower.
Use a handful on your arms, legs and back. I
don't use it on my face.
It can make the shower oor slippery. If it does,
I wipe the oor with a paper towel after my
shower.

Essential Oils vs. Synthetic ChemicalsLiliana Macedo, Integrative Aromatherapist
Continued...page 2
Essential oils are highly concentrated substances
extracted from aromatic plants with medicinal
properties. The pharmacological activity of their
constituents, give them a tremendous curativepotential, that mankind discovered centuries ago.
After a long time of use by apothecaries, alchemists
and early physicians, a day came when scientists
started identifying the chemical composition of
essential oils, and a big enthusiasm surrounded
these substances. They quickly learned how to
reproduce these molecules articially, originating
the modern industry of synthetic drug
mass-production, which no longer needed the
plants.
Our organism, not used to decode synthetic and
decontextualized elements, starts manifesting
various side effects, resulting from that mis-
understanding. After so many centuries, the
pharmaceutical laboratories are still not able t
correct this fact and, rather incomplete long lists o
side effects, are still found inside each dru
package we buy at pharmacies. Unlike synthetdrugs, good quality essential oils, when correctl
used, don't have undesirable side effects and don
leave toxic traces in the organism.
The natural biochemical language of essential oils
perfectly understood by our organism, whic
positively responds to the application. The frequen
use of good quality essential oils, promotes th
action of the body's own healing system
stimulating and supporting our immune system
our vital strength.
It should be a matter of serious reection, how
nowadays people take synthetic drugs s
frequently, most of the times not even trying othe
restorative methods. Taking a pill is quick and easy
but the quick temporary relief has a long-term
damage associated. Synthetic drugs can be helpfu
in certain cases, but should always be our las
choice, and not the rst. We are all paying the pric
of this legal drug abuse, getting more vulnerable aa species, incapable of responding to new virus an
bacteria and, even worse, creating them!

Our negligent use of antibiotics is an example of
how we are contributing to dangerous mutations in
these pathological microorganisms, creating newdrug-resistant strains like the
multi-drug resistant tuberculosis.
Its about time that we take responsibility for our
own health, instead of transferring that
responsibility to our doctor or our pillbox. Its up to
each one of us to research and learn about ways of
dealing with our health challenges in a more
conscientious and committed way, combining
different approaches in an integrative therapeutic
strategy.
Its no longer a matter of individual concern; its a
matter of global responsibility.
