I have loved plants and healing for as long as I can remember. When I faced health problems of my own, my learning began. I have found the study of Aromatherapy to be particularly healing as I lost a son to leukemia a few years ago and found the work with oils to be helpful in the process of my healing and grieving.
Many people come in and take the course and finish very quickly. I had finished the course work, but had a deep need to "play" with the oils and re-learn. SO, I would study, get to know the oils, then study some more. I spent two and half years doing the course, but not because I had not done the work, but because I needed to experience the oils to fully integrate my learning and understand how to use them most effectively. I have loved the support and flexibility to do this in the way that was the best learning for me.
At the moment I am making products, some being carried by a local spa and selling seasonally at a local market. I am also working individually with clients. I have a special interest in mental health. I am also studying acupuncture and I am already in a place in my program where I can use aromatherapy in massage. I am excited about the possibilities.
