About Athreya’s Aromatic Oils

Athreya Herbs is elated to launch its calming collection of Aromatic Oils which encapsulates the pure, unadulterated herbal extracts of Tulsi, Bergamot, Lavender, Sandalwood, and Frankincense to take you on a sensory journey toward healing.

According to neuroscience, our sense of smell is said to be an integral instinct to ensure our survival (from the detection of danger to mate attraction), memory retention & retrieval, and emotional stability to live a trouble-free life.

In Ayurveda, each aromatic substance, also known as ‘Sugandha’ in Sanskrit, can influence and induce a specific healing effect through our sense organs. This helps balance your doshas (body energy) (Vata - air & space, Pitta - fire & water, and Kapha - water & earth) and our ‘Prana’ (lifeforce), which work in harmony to govern our physiological and mental processes.

Understanding the ‘Sugandha’ needed and its properties can keep our doshas regulated, and Prana flowing, and prevent negative emotions from standing in the way of a healthy mind, body, and life.
