Learn, Make & Take -- Aromatherapy to Uplift and Energize
Time change got you down? Shake off the seasonal blues with this learn, make, and take workshop!
During the first part of this workshop, we will dive into learning about herbs whose aromatherapy benefits uplift the mood and boost energy. We will talk about the many benefits and possible contraindications of these amazing herbs, as well as the different ways to use these herbs in everyday life. Safe handling of essential oils, appropriate storage and labeling, and proper dilution techniques will also be discussed.
For the second portion of the workshop, each attendee will make two (2 ounce) aromatherapy sprays that can be used on the body, or as a room and linen spray. Recipes and guidance will be provided, especially for those who have allergies or for women who are pregnant.
All materials will be provided in class, including glass bottles with fine mist spray tops, essential oils and other items to complete their aromatherapy sprays. Please bring a notebook and pen if you like to take notes. Otherwise, just bring a ready to learn attitude!
