Answer 3

Well I sell aromatherapy oils, and I would recommend while you are giving your presentation, then let a defuser burn, if you don't know what that is, they are little stands that have a place where you can put a tea light candle, under a little bowl and the candle heats up the oil, I usually use water with my oil, and it evaporates the oil/water mixture and thus releases a wonderful scent into the air. I would recommend mellow oil like Sandlewood, or Jasmine, or maybe a Eucalyptus. Hope the presentation goes well and have fun with the whole aromatherapy idea!!!

Answer 6

I have taught a bunch of aromatherapy classes. A great parlor trick is to rub garlic on the bottom of peoples feet; they will be able to taste garlic. This helps to demonstrate how essential oils enter the blood stream dermally.

Good Luck!

I know that "Silky Scents" has essential oils & organic essential oils, and they have a free recipe section. You'll probably be able to find all the information there. Plus they have the pictures of each plant. You can google their name to find them online.
