Marian Reven
Aromatherapy Certification Program graduate“My favorite part of nursing is caring for people who are nearing the end of life.”
How Marni brings comfort to the bedside.
My name is Marni "Ma" and I have been a registered nurse for almost 29 years.
I had the honor of being a hospice nurse for seven years. I also very much enjoy teaching, supporting comfort and pain control, as well as mentoring the next generation of nurses and care providers.
Currently, I am working at a large university hospital, West Virginia University (WVU) Ruby Memorial and have been accepted into graduate studies at WVU NursePhDProgram. I have a research project in the pipeline involving nurses at our largest cancer center. We are excited to begin exploring the effects of essential oil inhalation and stress/fatigue reduction.
It is my privilege to serve as the Alliance of International Aromatherapist's state representative for WV. I am also honored to serve as co-chair for the AIA research committee along with several other very talented members.I have completed the certification and advanced graduate program with Aromahead.Last year I tackled the Aromatherapy Registration exam.
I serve on the board of WV Wellness Inc. which is a consortium of holistic practitioners in the tri-state area of WV, PA, and OH. We sponsor wellness talks/speakers for the public, hold a yearly wellness fair, and promote wellness and love whereverwe can.I am gratefulto be a part of wellness and the aromatherapy and larger holisticcommunity. We are growing and the need for alternative, or should I say Integrative medicine, has never been more apparent.Love Always,Marni
MoMa Aroma LLC
MoMa Aroma-- the name is inspired by two sister's names, Molly and Marni, Mo and Ma :)
We have been exploring aromas, oils and butters since 2014.Our product line includes blends that we learned to make in this certification program. The pain and inflammation butter with a 3% blend of oils is our signature blend. In addition, we have created other comfort and support products for many areas of life.
While we still have so much to learn, the communities where we live overwhelmingly support our journey and want our products.
I love Aromahead! The community is full of love and nonjudgemental support. My sister, Molly Messmer, and I were drawn to it back in our days of MLMs. We have since stepped away from that community and embraced the Aromatherapy community. I recommend Aromaheadto everyone. :)
What made the difference, in Marni’s words.
Marni found the school with her sister and stayed through certification and the advanced graduate program. Here is what stood out, in her own words.
A community without judgment
What a hospice nurse noticed first about studying here.
The community is full of love and nonjudgemental support.
A better home for two sisters
She and her sister came from the sales world of oils and stayed for the education.
My sister, Molly Messmer, and I were drawn to it back in our days of MLMs. We have since stepped away from that community and embraced the Aromatherapy community.
