Aromatherapy

Lesson 2: Aromatherapy Made Easy & Fun

Student Information and Discussion Topics

You’ve just entered the magic world of aromatherapy! Essential oils belong to the natural world. Pick one essence and find as much information as you can about it. The books I used as a reference in writing this course will be able to give you all the knowledge you need, but there also many other books that will help you deepen your knowledge of aromatherapy and our environment.

Go to your herbal store and start "sniffing" the sample oils they have. Which ones do you really like, truly dislike or are neutral about? Try and describe the reasons of your likes/dislikes. Also, how would you start using aromatherapy? Aromatherapy is a journey: where do you want to start from? Beauty, emotional well-being, physical health? Set your priorities and start studying and researching in the area which is close to your interest.

Pay a visit to your local botanical garden. It is always amazing (according to the season) to see the "real life" trees and plants from which essential oils are obtained. You may even start a botanical journal with your children, or grandchildren. There is no better way to get to know, love and respect your environment!
