Report copyright infringementby Suzanne Catty (Author)- The first book devoted exclusively to aromatic hydrosols--gentle, water-based plant extracts that expand the healing, cosmetic, and culinary applications of aromatherapy. - The newest development in the field of aromatherapy. - The homeopathic form of aromatic treatment that is the perfect complement to other forms of vibrational medicine. - A comprehensive reference with more than 100 recipes and formulas for using hydrosols as well as sources of supply. - With an introduction by Kurt Schnaubelt, author of Advanced Aromatherapy and Medical Aromatherapy. Hydrosols is one of the most anticipated books in the world of holistic health because it introduces a revolutionary new use of essential oils in aromatic treatment. Hydrosols, or hydrolates, are the pure, water-based solutions created when essential oils are steam distilled. Through this process, a potent, yet subtle form of medicine is created, one that is able to be ingested as well as applied directly to the skin, unlike most pure essential oils. In fact, hydrosols are considered the homeopathic version of aromatherapy, and as such are ideal for use with children, animals, and those with fragile immune systems. Suzanne Catty details the specifics of 67 hydrosols, provides formulas to treat more than 50 health concerns, and offers 40 delicious recipes in which hydrosols can be used. Her section on pets will help owners deal with urinary tract and digestive problems as well as grooming and odor issues. She also shows how hydrosols can be used with other forms of vibrational medicine and with feng shui, geomancy, and dowsing.Back JacketAROMATHERAPY / HEALTH "Suzanne Catty performs a great service to us all in bringing forth from obscurity this aspect of plant medicine, which is both ancient and modern.

The sheer wealth of carefully assembled empirical data will answer many hitherto unanswered questions about how to use hydrosols for many different conditions. While this contribution of Hydrosols is of obvious benefit to the reader, there is an equally important--and for those in the field, maybe even more exhilarating--aspect to Hydrosols: it alters the evolution of aromatherapy itself. --Kurt Schnaubelt, Ph.D., Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy and author of Advanced Aromatherapy and Medical Aromatherapy "This important work stretches the boundaries of aromatherapy to include experiential information on aromatic hydrosols, the homeopathic marriage of herbs and essential oils." --Mindy Green, author of Natural Perfumes and coauthor of Aromatherapy: A Complete Guide to the Healing Art "Every conceivable aspect that one could wish to know about hydrosols is covered--not only for the consumer but, for the manufacturer and retailer as well." --Pamela Parsons, editor of The Aromatic Thymes Hydrosols: The Next Aromatherapy is one of the most anticipated books in the world of holistic health because it introduces a revolutionary new use of essential oils in aromatic treatment.
