ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW
The "Reference Guide for Essential Oils" includes individual sections for the following: Science & Application, Single Oils, Oil Blends, Personal Care Products, Bath & Shower Gels, Bar Soaps, Tinctures, Massage Oils, Supplements, and a Personal Guide which is alphabetized by health condition.
The Reference Guide for Essential Oils is truly a unique book. There are other similar books on the market, but none are as user friendly as this one.
An appendix with concise, quickly accessible information on single oils and oil blends including safety information.
This book is bound with a coil binding which is very durable and allows the pages to lay flat facilitating the use of this book during the application of oils.
Connie Higley has had a fascination for natural healing methods, relying on herbs and herbal remedies for much of her life. Always interested in natural ways to help maintain the health of her family, she has studied Educational Kinesiology and attended several lectures and conferences on natural healing methods. She received her bachelor's degree in Information Management in 1989 and developed a unique talent for organizing information.
As a devoted mother, Connie became excited about the possible uses of essential oils when she learned about the therapeutic and emotional effects that could be achieved by topical application and inhalation as opposed to ingestion.

USER REVIEWS
"If you are looking for a excellent essential oil guide, this is the book. I have several oil books, and this is the most comprehensive and reasonably priced book. Do not be misled that the book is all about Young Living products.
The information on methods of application, essential oil constituents, and therapeutic grade oils can be applied to a number of companies. When it comes to the purchase of essential oils, it is your decision to buy the quality you desire. If the oil is a therapeutic grade, the application of the single oils can be use for any company of this caliber. (Why would you want to purchase cheap, adulterated oils for your body?)
I love the sections on: Methods of Application, Vitaflex Therapy, Raindrop Technique, Auricular Emotional Therapy, and Emotional Release.
Because of the spiral binding, the book can be laid flat to review for these applications.
The Single Oils section is very comprehensive including Properties, Uses:(Folklore, Historical, French Medicinal and Esoteric),Body Systems Affected, Aromatic Influence, Application, Safety Data, Blend Classification,and Frequency.
The Young Living Oil Blends list the single oils(uses)contained and what the blend is designed to do as well as body systems affected, aromatic influence, companion oils, frequency,and comments.The Personal Care Products, Bath Gels and Bar Soaps, Tinctures, Massage Oils, Supplements and Vitamins are Young Living Products.
There is a Personal Guide for physical and emotional problems(over 600 topics), and in the appendix the Body System Chart lists of all the products and the body systems that they affect:cardiovascular system , digestive system, emotional balance, hormonal system, immune system, muscles and bones, nervous system, respiratory system, and skin and hair.

"I have had this book for over a year and it has been my only introduction into the therapeutic use of essential oils. It has been helpful for me to get to know more about the general use of the oils offered by Young Living. I am now shopping for a book that is more specific about how to use oils as far as how much and how often. This book seems too vague as it mainly just lists what oils are helpful for a certain ailment without offering details. Any details that are given tend to be anecdotal, perhaps an experience that one person had that worked for them. It's as if I am already suppose to know how to use oils and just need a reminder of which one to choose for a certain condition. Besides, it seems to be a big ad for Young Living. Nonetheless, they do have some good, although painfully overpriced, products."
