Essential oils give life
Cindy was a final year accounting student – the jewel of Diane, her single parent mother’s eye. Driving from university one afternoon, a drunken driver shot a traffic light and smashed into her car rendering her unconscious. Cindy remained in a coma in hospital for the next six months. Doctors advised Diane to ‘pull the plug’ as Cindy ‘would never come out of her coma and it was the kindest thing to do.’ Her medical insurance cover had run out and she owed the hospital a small fortune which Diane did not have. Diane, refused to accept their prognosis and she took Cindy home becoming her full time caregiver. With the help of a benefactor, Cindy was hooked up to life saving machines. A good mother, Diane did her homework. She had read of comatose patients who woke up to the sound of favourite music, a family dog’s bark or special aromas. She remembered that sandalwood was a smell that Cindy had loved. Placing an infuser in the bedroom one night, her first vision on returning to Cindy’s bedside was a fully awake daughter with a wide smile to greet her mother. Today Cindy is a qualified accountant leading a happy life.

Read about the science of smell
Essential oils have irrefutable history. Ancient civilisations, dating back thousands of years had personal selections of single oils or blends, which in turn were used for specific occasions or applications. The oils were considered a luxury of significant aesthetic value which not everyone could afford. There is evidence that they were a way of life for Persians, Chinese, Greeks, Egyptian, Romans and Asians. They used them for bathing, healing, skin disorder treatments, antiseptics, moisturisers, relaxation, ancient cosmetics and medications. Frankincense and myrrh as choice gifts, go back to biblical times. Their use however crosses all ethnic groups, religious beliefs, gender, age and practises. Depending on the geographic area and climate oil choices varied. Now with scientific research specific oils and smells can be matched to specific personality needs.
Now the science
Tawa Labs has avoided random essential oil choices. We have based our
Aromatherapeutics Crystal Collection product range on thorough scientific research.
Apart from the sensate experience of essential oils on the skin, we have researched the clinical archives for evidence of specific smells and their impact on wellbeing. Oils, their special ingredients and their fragrances offer a special combined package to promote aspects of health.
We know that essential oils can influence moods, thinking and social behaviour. Moods are not seen as an emotion but a precursor to an emotion. They can therefore help to halt negative emotions and promote the desirable ones, which enable feelings of loving and being loved, satisfaction and happiness. When you feel a mood coming on that you know could lead to an emotional outburst, your professionally trained aromatherapist could play a major role in restoring peace.
Tawa Labs considered all the above when we blended our unique Crystal Collection. Now that we know that fragrances can have psycho-physiological effects we created our designer Crystal Collection of essential oils to suit current needs. Carefully chosen aromas have been included to impact on the body and mind, yes add soul however you see it. You should notice the difference in your moods, stress management levels, memory and daily performance at work or home. Let your grey matter, matter.
