Aromatherapy – A flower's way into your heart, mind and soul

Aromatherapy – A flower’s way into your heart, mind and soul

We have often heard people saying: “Oh, this smell reminds of those days.” Well, I for one love the smell of boiling milk as it reminds me of my childhood days when grand mum used to boil milk in the kitchen after I came back from school on certain days, which meant today we were getting treated with cookies! Oh, the excitement! Grand ma’s delicious chocolate cookies were all that I still yearn for, or at least its smell.
