I enjoyed reading this! I too am in aromatherapy and have been for 7 years now. I have experienced and learned most of what I know through Young Living essential oils. I have also took a few classes online. Every day is essential and there's not a day we go without at least diffusing our oils. Looking forward to following you and reading more post. You can never learn too much :)
Hi! There is so much that touches this field that can make you a 'better' professional! The learnig never stops! Nice to meet you! I am not into YL but i am famiiar with some on his team - i really liked reading " Chemistry of Essential Oils Made Simple: God's Love Manifest in Molecules" . In my education there has beena big focus onthe chemistry, you see.
Nice to meet you too. I agree, there is so much to learn. It all intrigues me. In our family, the doctor's office is the last resort. We have learned so much about the chemical constituents of essential oils that it's much easier now to come up with better concoctions for our needs. I love reading his work, so much knowledge on this subject. So do you distill all of your own oils?
No that would be too much. I do buy myself though, at the little farmers. That way i know for sure that none got in between and i can check a bit easier if the crop was indeed organic.
What i can not bring home myself i order. In Holland there are some very excellent brands to order so quality is guaranteed.
I do however like to photograph the plants from the oils i work with!
Oh okay I understand now. I think it's so neat that you find and take pics of those plants. We once thought about distilling some oils at home and buying equipment. However we feel we have a trusted company to buy them from now. Quality is upmost important to us. We've had some not so good experiences with synthetic altered oils that we thought were authentic. Especially using them on our children, it's even more important to us. It's been really nice chatting with you!
