Book ID/图书代码: 06568007B15614
English Summary/英文概要: • The first book devoted exclusively to aromatic hydrosols--gentle, water-based plant extracts that expand the healing, cosmetic, and culinary applications of aromatherapy.
• The newest development in the field of aromatherapy.
• The homeopathic form of aromatic treatment that is the perfect complement to other forms of vibrational medicine.
• A comprehensive reference with more than 100 recipes and formulas for using hydrosols as well as sources of supply.
• With an introduction by Kurt Schnaubelt, author of Advanced Aromatherapy and Medical Aromatherapy.
Hydrosols is one of the most anticipated books in the world of holistic health because it introduces a revolutionary new use of essential oils in aromatic treatment. Hydrosols, or hydrolates, are the pure, water-based solutions created when essential oils are steam distilled. Through this process, a potent, yet subtle form of medicine is created, one that is able to be ingested as well as applied directly to the skin, unlike most pure essential oils. In fact, hydrosols are considered the homeopathic version of aromatherapy, and as such are ideal for use with children, animals, and those with fragile immune systems.
Suzanne Catty details the specifics of 67 hydrosols, provides formulas to treat more than 50 health concerns, and offers 40 delicious recipes in which hydrosols can be used. Her section on pets will help owners deal with urinary tract and digestive problems as well as grooming and odor issues. She also shows how hydrosols can be used with other forms of vibrational medicine and with feng shui, geomancy, and dowsing.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 本書是蘇珊.凱帝的開創性之作,是第一本針對純露寫成的專書,並因此建立了一種新的療癒方式,
將原本的廢棄產物,轉變成了一個全世界通用的療癒資源。雖身為精油在蒸餾過程中的副產物,
純露在植物醫學中,一直具有重要的地位。
它嶄新又源自於古老,溫和卻有令人振奮的療效。
這種神奇的療癒之水,為芳療注入新的活力,
擁有重啟身心覺知的力量,幫助我們與生命的本質連結。
從芳香療法的角度,來為植物的純露下定義:「純露是植物為了芳香治療的目的,經過蒸氣或水蒸餾所得之過程中的凝結水副產物。」而最重要觀念是——凡用來創造與維持健康的物質,應該完全都是來自特定的植物品種,並且是最純淨的植物。通常蒸餾法是為了要取得植物中的精油,但有時候,有些蒸餾法卻是單單為了取得純露而進行。在純露的製造過程中,必須使用經過有機認證,或未曾使用殺蟲劑或化學藥劑的植物,經過符合環保的方式採收,每次只能使用單一品種的植物。整個蒸餾過程必須緩慢地進行,以低壓的方式,在足夠的時間內完成,並且使用純淨、無污染的水,以保持植物內所有具療效的成份,所製造完成的產品也不會再經過任何加工手續。
雖然純露存在的時間與蒸餾法一樣古老,而且很多蒸餾方式被發明的目的,就是為了生產純露,純露在芳香療法中使用的歷史中,仍然算是非常新的。我們希望透過這本書,提供大家對於芳療產品不同面向的看待觀點。
