BASIC FIRST AID
... Inhalation of True Scents™ pure essential oils that help restore brain and heart function, stimulate the mind and senses are of much value. The Essential Oils (see below) such as Rosemary, Rosemary and Camphor, Peppermint, Basil, Clary Sage, Ginger, Grapefruit, Myrtle, and Pennyroyal (Pennyroyal not for use during pregnancy) are some of the best choices.

The essential oils can be placed in an aromatherapy diffuser or aromatherapy steam inhaler unit, or simply a stainless steel pot with a little water and a few drops of essential oil added to the simmering water- bend over the pot and inhale the steam with a towel covering the entire head to help the steam concentrate its effects and enter your nasal passages. The essential oils may also be added to a pure vegetable oil such as sweet almond, safflower, grapeseed, jojoba or olive oil to be used for massaging areas behind the ear, the neck, the temples, forehead, etc. The True Scents™ pure essence oils can also be used in massage oils as well.
