• Aromatic Herbs - Stimulating!
• Aromatic herbs stimulate and move things.
• They might move tension, mucus, energy, or what ever needs moving.
• Aromatic herbs penetrate quickly; they owe their properties mainly to the volatile oils they contain.
• Aromatic herbs are divided into two sub-categories; Stimulants and Nervines
• Stimulant aromatics are most often used to stimulate something into action. They will stimulate the circulatory system, respiratory, or the digestive system, if any of these systems are sluggish they will nudge them into action.

Many of these herbs are analgesic (pain relieving), antiseptic (germ killing), and carminative (stimulate digestion).

Examples include:

Capsicum, Catnip, Ginger, Thyme, Garlic, Fennel, Peppermint
