Aromatherapy 101: An Aromatic Event Not To Be Missed

Aromatherapy has been around for ages, but in the last few years more and more products have been tying in the practice of Aromatherapy. From inexpensive lines at stores like Bath & Body works (I personally love their Stress Relief Line) to luxurious candles, mists, and other home goods, aromatherapy has broken into mainstream markets…in a major way.

We recently visited MiN Apothecary & Atelier on Crosby Street in Soho to get a quick run down on Aromatherapy and the benefits it provides. Mindy Yang, vice president, explained that aromatherapy is the practice of using naturally distilled essences of plants to promote the health and well-being of your body, mind, and spirit. These essence, called essential oils, can restore balance and harmony to your body and to your life. She also let us in on the many benefits aromatherapy can provide.
