Aromatherapy Certification Program graduate“I am deeply grateful for my instructors, for what I have learned, and for the confidence I now have to share with others.”
How Karen paired a science background with a deeper natural-health path.
My background is in science and education which pairs nicely with the Aromahead Institute's ACP program.
I've always been one to pursue a more natural course of action when tending to the health needs of my family, and while I had a working knowledge of certain ways to manage this, I really wanted a deeper knowledge of these fascinating topics, such as essential oils.
That's what led me to pursue the Aromatherapy Certification Program.
As I have shared my pursuit of certification, people have asked me for help and information about different problems and conditions they have, and I've been able to help them.
I plan to continue this process by teaching classes, serving on an individual basis, and hopefully creating my own products to sell through Etsy or in some other way.
Aromahead Institute is a beautifully thorough and excellent path of study. There are plenty of hands-on blending activities to help internalize the learning process. I quickly saw that this was a rigorous program, yet accessible with a lot of kind and loving support along the way.
