Moosntone - Holistic Book of the Month

Complete Book of Incense, Oils and Brews by Scott Cunningham

Yes I know that it's an old book but I'm an old person!! Seriously we thought that we'd start this month with a recommended beginners book. 

Are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin ...  I bought this book in 1998 and still refer to it today.  But it's more than a reference book, it's also a practical guide.

If you enjoy playing with mixing bowls, herbs and oils then this is the book for you. It's an easy read and the author keeps it simple - which is what I love about it - and means you can get stuck into making almost straight away.

You're given recipes on making incense, magical oils, tinctures, herb baths, bath salts, brews, soaps and charms.  And even if you havn't got the right oils and herbs - there's a list of alternatives and substitutions to choose from. So all in all, this is a book that brings magic into your life while at the same time, helping you relax with fragrance. Now that can't be bad!
