Cleaning Power without the Chemicals, Part 1

MarinaHanes ~ 12 November 2009

It’s common to disinfect toilets, sinks, counters, etc. with bleach or other harsh chemicals that only leave behind a strong, intoxicating odor.  Sometimes an odor so suffocating that it causes you to leave the sparkling room before you even get a chance to enjoy it.  But cleaning products don’t have to be so abrasive to your body and environment.

A more natural and aromatic way to clean is to use essential oils.  Essential oils are liquids distilled from flowers, trees, roots, bushes, shrubs and seeds.  Essential oils were actually humankind’s first medicine, and there are 188 references to essential oils in the Bible.  Each oil has different properties and certain ones can protect the immune system, enhance your mood, stimulate or regenerate tissues and nerves, oxygenate cells and even destroy odors.
