How do oils work to support emotions?:
Because different essential oils can cause different emotional and chemical responses, the design of the dōTERRA Emotional Aromatherapy System is based on chemistry. Each essential oil blend in the system is made up of basic chemicals that are categorized into different classifications. In aromatherapy, different classifications are used to create desired emotional responses.
Each product in the dōTERRA Emotional Aromatherapy System has been designed to achieve a unique chemical profile. In most cases, essential oils can be classified as having either uplifting or calming effects. Using distinct essential oil groups, the dōTERRA Emotional Aromatherapy System relies on specific plant categories to elicit emotional responses based on the chemical components included in each essential oil.

Essential Oils don’t do our emotional work for us …
"Essential oils assist individuals in taking an honest look within. They foster the right environment for healing but they will not do the work for us. In gardening, it is a common experience to pull the weeds while leaving the roots. This is particularly true for hard and rocky soils. To ensure we uproot the whole plant, we can add water to the soil, which allows the entire weed to be removed. Similarly, essential oils prepare our emotional soil so that weeds may be removed with greater ease. However, they do not do the weeding for us. If one neglects to do the work of pulling the weeds, they have simply watered the problem. On the other hand, those who combine essential oils with the emotional work, reap the fruit of their labor". --Emotions and Essential Oils
