Aromatherapy may help winter blahs - WWSB ABC 7

[11]

If the long, cold winter is starting to get you down, try using the scents of summer to help get you through until spring.


“Aromatherapy” uses scents and aromas as triggers to make us feel better.


Aromatherapy is done in a variety of ways.

Essential oils can be placed in an infuser which fills a room with a desired scent.

The oils may also be mixed with water and used to dampen a wash cloth.

Simply wiping your face, hands, and neck may provide the response you’re looking for.

Scented lotions are often used, too.

They come in a variety of fragrances and can be rubbed into the skin.

Scented sticks may also provide the same effects.

You can carry them in your purse or pocket and use as needed.
