Plants and their essential oils have been used for healing since ancient times. Oils were used to anoint newborns and kings, care for the body, and treat the sick. In the Bible at least 33 different essential oils are specifically mentioned, and aromatic herbs, resins, and incense are referred to more than 1,000 times. Distilling the most significant of this healing wisdom, Karin Opitz-Kreher and Johannes Huber examine the ancient uses of essential oils, both in ritual and for health, and present an in-depth look at the 12 most important oils mentioned in the Bible, including how to use them for healing and well-being today.

The essential oils featured in this full-colour guide are: cassia, galbanum, myrrh, myrtle, spikenard, onycha, sandalwood, frankincense, hyssop, cedar, cistus, and cypress. Each oil is explored in depth, beginning with the Bible verses that refer to it, followed by historical information about the oil, its botanical and chemical composition, its uses in folk medicine, and its modern uses for healing and well-being, including simple recipes and daily exercises. The book also discusses two alternative oils that can be used in place of rare or endangered essential oils.

After looking at each essential oil individually, the authors describe how to create a blend of all 12 biblical oils, which promotes a high level of both physical and mental energy. The authors also examine other ancient references to essential oils, from Egyptian papyri to Ayurvedic tradition, showing how the sophisticated art of extracting plant essences has evolved over thousands of years.
Karin Opitz-Kreher is trained in Aura-Soma, Aura-Soma bodywork, and foot reflexology harmonization. She also works as a meditation group leader following Ralph Jordan and as a biofeedback therapist, using the SCIO system for stress reduction and system harmonization. She discovered the world of essential oils in 2013 and has been making use of the traditional knowledge of oils in her work ever since. Karin also gives seminars on their use in energy work. Johannes Huber is an alternative practitioner whose interest in essential oils goes back to his youth. He has been working with them in aromatherapy and in the care of the sick and elderly for more than ten years. The focus of his work also includes darkfield microscopy diagnosis.
