Aromatherapy Resources www.TheLightfootWay.com 2009 Copyright What is Aromatherapy? Aromatherapy is a therapy where essential oils are extracted from the flowers, leaves, bark, roots, stems, seeds, or fruit of a plant. The oils are then either inhaled (from the bottle or a diffuser) or diluted in a carrier oil and rubbed into the skin. The same method is used for animal aromatherapy. The use of aromatherapy dates back to Egypt, over 5,000 years ago. Documented veterinary remedies date back to the 18th century. Some holistic vets and animal communicators recommend or create custom essential oil blends for their clients. Many massage practitioners offer aromatherapy by applying the oils to your body during a massage. Some animal massage practitioners offer this option for dogs and horses. A growing number of pet owners are learning about the benefits of aromatherapy. How Aromatherapy Works Aromatherapy can affect people and animals mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. The essential oil or hydrosol is inhaled by you or the animal or rubbed into the skin. When the nose senses the oil, the molecules of the oil are sent as electrical impulses which are processed in the part of their brain where memories and emotions are stored. Because of this, the body releases chemicals such as: serotonin, which has a calming effect noradrenaline, which stimulates and rejuvenates endorphins, which help relieve pain After the molecules are processed by the brain, they enter the bloodstream and make their way throughout the body. If the oils are rubbed in, the molecules are absorbed through the skin and enter the bloodstream that way. BENEFITS & PROPERTIES OF AROMATHERAPY FOR PEOPLE Essential oils are commonly used in products such as soaps, shampoos, sprays and during massage. Caution needs to be taken with children, during pregnancy, or those with a medical condition. If wanting to apply topically, oils can be tested on a small area of skin to make sure the person is not going to be sensitive to them. It is not recommended to take them orally.

  • Trees of the Bible: a Cultural History by Dr
    Pub. No. 43 October 2016 Trees of the Bible: A Cultural History by Dr. Kim D. Coder, Professor of Tree Biology & Health Care Warnell School of Forestry & Natural Resources, University of Georgia In your backyard, within parks, hidden in forests, and along roadways, are local trees related to those mentioned in the Bible. More than 36 trees are mentioned throughout the Old and New Testa- ments. Some of these trees have relatives living here in the Southeastern United States. There is significant disagreement across time about identification of tree species mentioned in the Bible. In multiple translations from many places using different sources, some authors have reached different conclusions about what specific trees were mentioned in the Bible. The Bible is not a botanical treatise, and so modern tree identification accuracy is not relevant. Ancient Land The land of the Bible 3,000 years ago was starting to experience human development pressure, soil erosion and over-grazing which would lead to the landscapes of the modern Middle East. Natural resources present in great supply of the distant past have now dwindled to isolated remnants, included many tree species. Trees mentioned in the Bible can still be found in the wild places of the Middle East today. The Middle East area of the Bible can be generally described as historic Palestine. The area of Palestine today is made of several nations and many peoples. Historic Palestine was at the Eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea where Africa, Asia, and the Mediterranean Basin meet. This area has been cross roads for plant and plant product trade over millennium.

Ohio Sttite University Press $6.50 America, IXuaata, S>emp, anb Napoleon American Trade with Russia and the Baltic, 1783-1812 BY ALFRED W. CROSBY, JR. On the twelfth of June, 1783, a ship of 500 tons sailed into the Russian harbor of Riga and dropped anchor. As the tide pivoted her around her mooring, the Russians on the waterfront could see clearly the banner that she flew — a strange device of white stars on a blue ground and horizontal red and white stripes. Russo-American trade had irrevocably begun. Merchants — Muscovite and Yankee — had met and politely sounded the depths of each other's purses. And they had agreed to do business. In the years that followed, until 1812, the young American nation became economically tied to Russia to a degree that has not, perhaps, been realized to date. The United States desperately needed Russian hemp and linen; the American sailor of the early nineteenth century — who was possibly the most important individual in the American economy — thought twice before he took any craft not equipped with Russian rigging, cables, and sails beyond the harbor mouth. To an appreciable extent, the Amer­ ican economy survived and prospered because it had access to the unending labor and rough skill of the Russian peasant. The United States found, when it emerged as a free (Continued on back flap) America, Hossia, fiemp, and Bapolcon American Trade with Russia and the Baltic, 1783-1812 America, llussia, iicmp, and Bapolton American Trade with Russia and the Baltic, 1783-1811 BY ALFRED W.
