- An Eastern Viewpoint
Aromatherapy uses healing essential oils,
nature’s versatile fragrances painstakingly extracted from plants, to
bring deep and far-reaching changes in our physical, mental, emotional
and spiritual well-being. It is poised to be a key complementary therapy
of the 21st century.
Sleepless nights, six weeks of a hacking
cough, the mandatory course of antibiotics, changing bottle of fat, sweet
globules of homeopathic medicine, experimenting with what seemed like
everybody's grandmother's remedies - I went through it all. Nothing much

You can
make your own essential oil based hair conditioner with the following
recipe:
- 1 Tbsp Lanolin
- 1 Tbsp Glycerine
- 1 Tbsp Almond Oil
- 3 drops of Rosemary
(dark hair) OR Chamomile (light)
- 1 egg
Combine the first four
ingredients, mixing thoroughly. Warm the mixture slightly. Beat in
the egg. (Remember only warm the mixture slightly or you will end up
with scrambled eggs on your head!) Once the egg is well mixed with
the other ingredients, massage the mixture into the hair and scalp.
Place either a bath cap or a towel over your hair and allow the conditioner
to penetrate for about 10 minutes. Finally, rinse your hair thoroughly,
and the beautiful lustre will be revealed!
