doTERRA Oils for the Emotions – Emotional Therapy Set
An innovative way to influence feelings.
Scientists and psychologists have tried for centuries to understand the phenomenon we describe as feelings or emotions. Although science cannot yet definitively describe the exact mechanisms, we know that feelings have a major impact on our well-being. The new oil blends in the dōTERRA Emotional Aromatherapy Series utilize the latest research and the purest essential oils. These blends contain unique volatile aromatics that act on emotions and therefore influence our health.
Although the term aromatherapy was only coined in the 20th century, it has been used to influence emotions for thousands of years. How essential oils and their aroma affect our feelings is a fascinatingly complex process. While a lot is known about aromatherapy, we are only just beginning to understand the connection between a scent and feelings. It was only in the early 1990s that biologists (with a Nobel Prize-winning study by Linda Buck and Richard Axel) began to understand the chemical sensors responsible for the remarkable effects of scents. Recently it was discovered that olfactory sensors are present not only in the nose, but also in the skin. This discovery has a variety of implications for the future of aromatherapy research and the use of essential oils. Scent is an amazingly powerful tool that we can use to influence our lives in many ways.

The basis of all CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade® essential oils is chemistry. The chemical components and their concentration determine the benefits and aroma of these gifts from the earth. The unique chemical profile of Emotional Aromatherapy oil blends determines their use. Included in the kit is an instructional chart that divides the essential oils into categories to educate us based on the chemistry and composition of each blend. The display is divided into six different categories: Mint, Citrus, Spices, Herbs and Grasses, Trees, and Flowers. Each category is known for general additive profiles that elicit specific emotional responses. When they are combined in precise proportions, a whole new spectrum of benefits is created.
The triggers and reactions vary from person to person. What we have in common is that we all have feelings. For example, for one person, the sweet scent of Cheer will have an uplifting effect, reminding them of their childhood playing in the citrus groves, while for another person, this mixture may evoke feelings of despair over a completely different experience. The beauty of the Emotional Aromatherapy Kit is that the uses of the new blends are limitless, and the best results are achieved when we experiment with them ourselves.
While we know, thanks to chemical and aromatherapy research, that the blends produce certain emotional responses, how they affect us varies greatly from one person to another. The Emotional Aromatherapy Chart is intended to be used initially as a guide, but then experiment on your own to discover the true value of the blends for you.
The doTERRA Emotional Aromatherapy System is an innovative way to experience the benefits of aromatherapy and balance your moods, which in turn leads to increased well-being.
