Customer Reviews

Mary Lee's Natural Health and Beauty

As a relative healthy girl in my mid-twenties I assumed I was doing everything I could to stay that way. After reading this book I have realized there are aspects of my mind, body, and soul that I have been neglecting. The suggestions of how to incorporate aromatherapy in a persons life were very helpful and so easy. I have immedately felt a difference in myself and my spirit. I highly reccomend this book to people of all ages and encourage everyone to try essential oils, especially those who do not believe in the tremendous benefits of them.

Essential Oils and Aromatherapy 101

I found this book very interesting as a beginner for Essential Oils and Aromatherapy. This is my first time ever been expose to this. I could understand clearly what the book was talking about, and is written for people to understand specially beginners that are interested in using Essential Oils and Aromatherapy in a regular basis in their routine life, I call this book the Essential Oils and Aromatherapy 101.

Very useful information

I have practiced Essential Oil Therapy for years, and I find this book to be the one I am now recommending. I disagree with the reviewer below, and doubt this person has read the book, as there are many, many essential oils mentioned that Mary Lee does not sell (as you can see in the appendix). Also, all of the stories I read in the book, whether it was a celebrity, or a mom like me, contained very practical information. They were heartwarming as well, which makes it more enjoyable! This book is so easy for the novice, or the experienced to pick up, read, and put into practice immediately. I can also say, as an avid reader of books on health, essential oils and herbs, that I applaud the author for her section on safety. Too many books throw out information without the general precautions. I highly recommend this book for everyone.

Mother of Two

I just finished reading this book and found it fascinating and helpful. As a mother of two boys, I am very interested in making my home as safe as possible. Using all-natural, chemical-free products is a great step in that direction. Mary Lee Patton's book is a "must read" for any mom, or mom to be.Christine Fountain The.fountains@juno.com

Very accessible and a good read

This is one of the most practical and helpful books I have found on the uses of essential oils for everyday use. As a pre-school teacher, I found many recipes and helpful hints I can use throughout the day. I also like that this book covers so many areas, from beauty to cleaning house. Unlike other books on this subject matter, it is a fun read, written for everyone. I highly recommend it!
