Shirley Price Gifts guide for the holiday season

8 Hawley Road, Hinckley LE10 0AN

Shirley Price Essential Oils and Diffusers make the perfect gift this holiday season for even the hardest to buy for

Christmas is mere days away, and if you’re like the majority of men out there, you’re still struggling to find the perfect gift for that significant someone in your life (and perhaps to suggest for yourself!).  But for all of you facing this dilemma considering yet another bottle of perfume, a piece of unwanted jewelery or a sweater that will end up collecting dust, may I make a recommendation she’s almost certainly going to love:

Shirley Price Essential Oils and aroma blends.  It’s a scent collection of pure essential oils that bring incredibly great smells into the comfort of your own home.

Shirley Price offers dozens of essential oils and blends like lavender, grapefruit, cinnamon, neroli, the spicy Noel blend and frankincense, each of which gives a distinct benefit to your everyday health and enjoyment.  Some are used for mental clarity, some for relaxation, some for rejuvenation, some for overall health, and the list goes on.

Moisturise. Shirley Price Botanical Skincare can be found all over the world and is probably the best loved brand you have never heard of.  The oils are packed into a range of 10 botanical moisturisers so you can give her the whole collection at once or thats the next ten Xmas stocking fillers sorted. Base creams and aloe vera gels are also provided so she can experiment with DIY although the base creams like carrot and avocado and sunflower oil are so good some clients just moisturise with them alone.

But when you consider the benefits, Shirley Price Essential Oils are a unique way to not only give a non-generic gift, but also to show your partner you care about them as well.  Of course they may wish tojoin in the festive fun and pack for you the relaxing Sandalwood aftershave balm a firm festive favourite with SP clients.

Amyris is being used by some practitioners in place of Sandalwood and you can see why.

Aromatherapy study blends

Each system of aromatherapy blends reflects the background of its author, whether perfumer/scientist (Gattefosse), a skilled/inspired aromatherapist (Worwood), Doctor/Educator (Valnet), Nurse/Educator (Tiran, Molhatra), Salon skincare practitioner/Educator (Shirley Price, Maury, Taylor) or Practitioner/Educator (Gubba, Mojay, Tisserand). Some authors have come to their aromatherapy via professional life like Westwood or Caddy. The full list of current authors and practitioners worldwide is lengthy and distinguished.

The personality of the practitioner no doubt reflects their successful use of particular oils as well as does oil chemistry and each practicioner will have their favourite oils and conditions they treat with most success.

The study conditions and blends are therefore something of a compromise for the convenience of educators setting and adhering to qualification standards rather a limit to aromatherapy. In that every condition has its mental as well as its physical aspects there are no limits to the usefulness of aromatherapy. Besides its use in routine skincare research shows 70% of serious medical conditions are attended by depressive symptoms.  There is plenty of work for aromatherapy to do!

Qualified aromatherapists should not be defensive about the use of intuition in oil blending as well as information.  The human brain is the universe's most subtle and powerful computor operating in all the infinite dimensions available to mathematics.The blends which come as a result of intuition and experience whether for ones own use and enjoyment or that of others often outshine those obtained by consulting textbooks.
