Guest guest Posted April 15, 2002 Report Share Posted April 15, 2002 Marge, How fascinating! You may have hit the nail on the head, so to speak. While I am not entirely sure what specific meaning grounding may have in aromatherapy, I do understand the general meaning. These past couple of months I have been emerging from a depression (some friends and family were getting worried that I was not going to emerge from it) after a period of deep deep mourning and, oddly enough, I have been out buying area rugs, throw rugs, and flooring to go over the perfectly good carpet and flooring already in place. If someone can benefit from a certain aroma, does it necessarily follow that they will like the scent? Thank you for the information. I appreciate it and you. ¸..·´¨¨)) -:¦:- ¸.·´ .·´¨¨)) ((¸¸.·´ ..·´ -:¦:- Sage -:¦:- -:¦:- ((¸¸.·´* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 15, 2002 Report Share Posted April 15, 2002 Sage, Here is a nice site with great descriptions of oils. www.turbosales.com/essentialoil/descript.html I myself am not overly fond of Patcholi or ylang ylang for that matter. Sounds like your body is picking up on something in there that it is attracted to. Patchouli is said to mix well with: vertiver,sandalwood, cederwood, geranium, clove, lavender, rose, neroli, bergamot and clary sage. Patchouli is a top note. Vitiver is said to mix well with: sandalwood, jasmine, patchouli, lavender, clary sage, mimosa and ylang ylang Vetiver is a base note. Maybe this will help find the perfect fit for you.

Patchouli is classified as a base note, due to its slower evaporation rate. It is an excellent fixative for this reason.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2002 Report Share Posted April 15, 2002 Sage, That addy was printed on the bottom of the page I printed from their site. And you are right it doesn't give you anything to do with EO's. Here is another that may be as good. http://www.ashburys.com/exp_oils_detailed.html This I copied and pasted so should work. Also: www.libertynatural.com/database/oils.htm For scent blends try: http://pinemeadows.net/recipes.php www.thesage.com blends of products they sell. Some are FO's. http://inspirit.com.au/soapweb/recipes/oilblends/oilblends.htm http://rainbowmeadow.com/scentblends.html http://accessnewage.com/aroma/essentialoilblends.cfm http://wwhttp://accessnewage.com/aroma/essentialoilblends.cfmw.alert-alive bc.ca/page5.html Hope this gives you some ideas. I do alot of reading and printing but sometimes I forget to paste the address in the Work's document. So I have alot of info that I didn't realize I would ever share.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2002 Report Share Posted April 15, 2002 In double checking the papers I have printed directly from sites, www mbspirit.com/oils.htm does list Patchouli as a top note while www naturesgift.com/chords.htm lists it as a bottom note. I will look into this for myself sometime just to know for sure.
