So when is the last time you can say you really felt good all over? Think back to the last time you took a nice long, hot bath with your favorite bath goodies and a beautiful scented candle. I’m sure many will agree with me when I say that there is no other feeling in the world that matches the one associated with drowning your worries away in a nice scented bath filled with the elements of nature.

It has been proven over the years that certain scents trigger areas of our brain that make us feel relaxed and rejuvenated. Did you know that certain natural essential oils are said to provide mood enhancing properties? Take for instance, Bergamot with it’s sweet yet spicy scent…is said to be somewhat of an antidepressant, while the sweet and citrusy notes of Grapefruit can uplift the spirit making it more of a stimulant. One of my favorites, essential Lavender oil has been used for many years for it’s calming and sedative properties.
