The tattvas, the Five Great Elements-earth, water, fire, air/wind, and ether/space-create and sus-tain not only the universe but also all of its inhabitants. Each of us has a unique combination of these elemental energies behind our personal characteristics-everything from the color of our eyes to our behaviors and emotional temperament. What tattvas are dominant in your makeup can also be influenced by your surroundings and by karma. Essential oils, in addition to working biologically and chemically, also work at the energetic level, making them ideal for working with the tattvas.

. Teaching you how to use essential oils to affect the very fabric of your being, Candice Covington details how the tattvas method of essential oils allows you to access the deepest, most hidden aspects of self, those beyond the reach of the mind, the very energetic causation patterns that set all behaviors and thoughts into motion. She reveals how the tattvas are the energy that ani• mate each chakra and how we can use their archetypal energy to shape our inner life and align with our greater soul purpose. The author provides energetic profiles of each tattva, chakra, and essential oil; explains their relationships to one another; and details how to identify what tattva or chakra is dominant at any given time. Exploring the energetic signatures of the tattvic essential oils, she details their elemental makeup, animal and deity archetypes, sacred geometry symbols, sacred syllables, and colors. She reveals how to discover the energy patterns responsible for direct-ing unhealthy life patterns and explains how CO identify your personal vibrational signature, purify your energy body, and craft your own unique ritual practice with essential oils.

Showing how essential oils are powerful vibrational tools for effecting change, the author reveals how they allow each of us to deliberately steer our own destiny, fulfill our personal dharma, and be all that our souls intended us to be.

It is well established that who we really are is not only the physical molecules that make up our body but also the energy that suffuses our being and expresses itself through our thoughts and feelings. Ultimately, we are the awareness of our physical sensations and thoughts. Studies in neuroscience have shown that we can influ-ence our cells (and thus our physical body) by applying electromag-netic fields to the body and that our own body maintains subtle energy fields that can be influenced by our thoughts and intentions. An imbalance in any layer of our existence can cause disruption in the entire system. In other words, an imbalance in the subtle energy body can cause both emotional turbulence and physical illness. In my practice as a medical doctor, I have often come across situations where the "solution" did not lie at the level of biomolecules or matter. Before developing an understanding of ourselves as fields of energy and awareness, I had nothing to offer patients to further their healing if medications or medical procedures didn't work. In this book the author offers an approach co healing that addresses the subtle layer of who we are: a field of energy, one that can be influenced by the vibra-tional and energetic qualities of nature. She gives us the information and tools to address the root cause of our imbalances and maximize our healing abilities.

In the typical Western medical model We use a very Newtonian, mechanistic viewpoint of who we are, which is only an approxima-tion of reality, and ultimately an illusion. This approach to healing does not give us access to the myriad healing modalities that influence the subtler nature of who we are. This is why I see so many patients who have been to doctor after doctor only to become more confused, and often more sick, in the end. A new paradigm of healing is emerg-ing in which we can address our underlying energy fields, below our physical/cellular domain. As we shift from a material, Newtonian par-adigm toward a more holistic viewpoint, we gain access to powerful forms of energetic healing.

In this book a gifted healer describes an ancient method of energy healing in a may that anyone can understand. She beautifully lays out the theory and rationale behind the use of essential oils, tattvas, and divine archetypes. This method does not directly address our physical body, as Western medicine does, but instead engages our subtle energy body. Healers have used this type of energy healing for millennia to remove obstructions that have gotten in the way of us experiencing our true, balanced nature. These time-tested methods provide us with a system of subtle energy medicine that can encourage deep healing and vibrant well-being.

When I first met Candice, I was familiar with the theories of our underlying nature of vibration and energy, but through her work with essential oils and tattvas, I was able to experience firsthand the power of our internal energies. Since experiencing this healing modal-ity myself, I have begun offering it to my own patients, and I can see the transformation that happens when we begin to affect the deepest layers of who we arc.

With extensive research, self-study, and personal experience, a gifted and knowledgeable alchemist gives readers a practical guide toward applying energetic healing through essential oils, tattvas, and divine archetypes to foster their own healing. If you are feeling stuck in your healing process, I encourage you to use this guide as a way to move toward your natural state of wholeness, health, and happiness.
