The essential oil industry is vast, so, I recommend joining the ‘slow life’ crowd and taking it all in in good time, your own sweet time. These essences are derived, distilled and crafted from organic natural ingredients (for the most part) and are often the purest form outside the actual plant – so you can get closer to nature without necessarily having to travel too far, especially for ingredients from as far away as Somalia or France. Oshadhi, is somewhat worldwide, under the watchful guise of Dr. Malte Hozzel (interview) has a very solid line of products, from these to perfume to lotions and potions that you may want to check out more closely. I share my experience of just two of their array of natural products (above).
