The Divine Benefits of Vanilla
August 22nd, 2011
Vanilla is one of my personal favorites. It’s uplifting, sweet and calming, like the scent of angels. When I wear it, I feel delicious and zen. Vanilla is a great scent for a mood boost, and includes several wellness benefits:
- Heightened mental clarity
- Clearing respiratory airways
- Calms stomach pains
- Reduces hunger pangs
- Relieves stress
- Digestive aid
- Relief of morning sickness
- Help for male impotency
Did you know?
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City, where my grandmother was treated for breast cancer in 1980, described Vanilla as a preferred scent in their stress research test. Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center was one of the first organizations to determine factual therapeutic properties of essential oils used in aromatherapy.
