We humans have received a tremendous gift from the day we were born: five senses with which we encounter the environment, enjoy the world, and seek meaning. All these senses are the powerful tools given to a person in the world to act, change the world, and increase goodness here.
If sight is to see the good and examine what remains to be done and corrected.
With hearing, to learn and be attentive to what happens around us.
With taste, to continue to exist from the abundance and to be grateful for all the diverse good.
With touch, to create and act in the rich variety of materials of the world.
And lastly, the beloved sense of smell, which is the most sublime among all and seems outwardly the least active and dominant, but do not be mistaken about it. Quietly, the sense of smell works wonders in our body and even within our soul.
The sense of smell is unique in the way it enters and the way the data received by it are transmitted to the brain cells. The reason is that it does not go through the data processing system, the limbic system, but directly to the brain. The implication is that we have no control over the processing of the data of the sense of smell,
for example, if we look at a picture we can think about it and change the thought in data processing, but smell is beyond control and its influence is what? Simply put, a good smell does good, and a bad smell less so.
Aromatherapy – healing according to the sense of smell has existed for thousands of years, but only about 100 years ago the term was coined by a French pharmacist. Great pleasure can be derived from essential oils, but much beyond a pleasant scent, in essential oils, which are the volatile part of the plant that captures the scent molecules, there is an unattainable effect on the person. Essential oils penetrate the body in several ways, they are absorbed through the skin and pass through it to the bloodstream, they can be inhaled and pass into the bloodstream through the lungs.
They pass directly through the nervous system to the brain (the limbic system) the system that controls memories, instincts, and vital functions. This is the reason why through the sense of smell and the oils it is possible to alleviate many problems that originate in stress and contact and the healing on the skin brings us comfort to an unbelievable extent.
Pure essential oils contain concentrated and pure plant energy, one drop is worth gold, thousands of jasmine or rose leaves are needed to produce one drop, and each drop has an effect on a wide range of skin problems and mental or respiratory problems, from the body, soul, and spirit, and more. At Avtinas, we distill more than 35 different types of essential oils from organic flora, the effect of a drop on a formula, a pure and powerful drop, cannot be estimated.
Since then, research in our times has proven that it is possible to heal through the sense of smell. As the oils are pure, they will provide us with pleasure and even help solve many problems and create balance.
Each oil has its own unique chemical composition and can be distinguished by the distillation process, the shade of the oil, its weight, and therefore aromatherapy is developing into a science and scientific research strengthens the ancient traditions of the peoples regarding the effects of the plants and the oils extracted from them.
Many tribes in ancient traditions have used plants over the years for many benefits, before pharmaceuticals, both in pharmacy and by burning them and exposing them to smoke, in order to balance and calm, to strengthen the immune system, to increase alertness, and to improve mood.
Many oils served in different cultures for beauty and grooming, to stimulate cell function and renew tissues, to reduce and prevent wrinkles, for scars, cuts, and wounds.
Since then and to this day, in modern life and high-rise living, we have moved away from the knowledge and exposure to the myriad secrets and wonders of nature that were once much more available, but the oils, with high concentration and quality as we maintain them, act as a wonderful booster helping with good sleep and creating wonders on the skin.
At Avtinas, we place full emphasis on the formulas and especially on the composition of the oils and their quality, with us, you will not find scent essences but pure and fresh essential oils that we distilled in the laboratory or ensured maximum quality from a reliable source. Their effect is noticeable on our customers, allow yourself…
