Our sense of smell is a powerful thing. It plays a primary role in everything from bonding with offspring, choosing a mate, to triggering deep memories of life events. It is no surprise that for over 6,000 years essential oils from plants and herbs have been used therapeutically to improve physical and mental well-being.
Want to learn about how Aromatherapy can enhance your life? Join us for a program that will teach about:
- The history of aromatherapy
- How aromatherapy works
- Ways to use essential oils to help common problems such as: insomnia, pain, tension, lack of focus, low energy, and many more.
- Guidelines for choice and safe usage of essential oils.
Bring your questions and curiosity as we explore this ancient, yet always new, avenue for wellness.
