Nowadays anger seems like a common occurrence. There are cases of road rage wherein people have lost their lives. The country is at odds and upset over conflict in the middle east. A new presidential election is coming up and people are bound to take sides. Uncontrolled anger and anger management are not only buzz words and the name of a popular comedy movie; but, they are realistic problems that people and their loved ones have to deal with.

To many people who suffer from anger management, aromatherapy sounds like a very hokey solution. I don't believe that aromatherapy is a complete solution. But, combined with therapy, self examination and the taking of responsibility; I feel it could help in the treatment.

When the average person uninterested in aromatherapy thinks of aromatherapy, they think of inhaling a funky brew from a weird bowl; or maybe just inhaling herbs themselves. But, there are many other ways to deliver healing aromas to the body while producing the same results.

First off lets discuss the herb and essential oil aromas that can be used to counteract anger. These are:

Rose, Benzoin, Chamomile, Cedarwood Clary and Sage.

The essential oils I recommend the most are Rose, Benzoin and Chamomile. You can purchase these at your neighborhood health food store. Sometimes purchasing essential oils can be a little pricey, but a little usually goes a long way in the creation of your aromatherapy blend.
