Well, I will say that stuff is probably a good remedy for company who have overstayed their welcome.

I don't have any kind of a problem with aromatherapy, as long as it's treated like what it is and not like some kind of esoteric medicine.

I don't know about "advanced" aromatherapy, though.

i simply took this photo and put it up here because i thought the author's name was funny

i have no idea about aromatherapy, though when the children get particularly stinky, evaporating some orange oil is nice

Nothing like a burn of lavender after hovering to get rid of the musty smell.

on the kids it does

the orangey smell is like first aid for air when it is too cold outside for extensive airing

what with school chums coming over, we regularly have 8 to 10 kids about the house

and for some reason, they don't mind their own smell when they come in after some arduous PE and flop down in front of their computers

See, we solved that problem in America.

We stopped making kids take PE.

And everything's been JUST GREAT ever since!   :lulz:

Now they smell because of the horrible goo that accumulates between their rolls of fat, as they wheeze their way through another 14 hours of WoW.

Those are fantastic paintings! I love the flamingo.

Odors can have a really provocative effect on mood, so they can be really useful.
