I think aromatherapy is good for health. The reason I started it was because I had a mentally difficult time at work. I have 20 kinds of aroma oil, and I enjoy burning them every night.

My favorite herbs are basil and perilla. They are growing in planters. It's very easy for taking care and bugs avoid them. I tried to grow lettuce this year, but a lot of red bugs came to them.

The Tenjin Matsuri looks good. I have never participated in a big festival in Kansai, but they will be energetic. Certanry Obon may has a similar meaning Christmas and Easter in Japan. Christmas and Easter seem more flashy and cheerful though.

日本語による所感

前半はアロマオイルとハーブという健康的な話題、後半はお祭りの話題をしています。アロマに関しては実はわたくし、資格を取得するほど一時期のめりこんでおりました。英文にも書いたとおり今も毎晩楽しんでおります。ハーブもプランターでのびのび育ててます。水さえあげれば勝手に茂ってくれるし、虫も来ないしで良いこと尽くし。生活は劇的に良くはなりませんが、地味にQOLが上がるものをさりげなく取り入れていきたいですね！
