“Aromatherapy conveys the concept of healing with aromatic substances”

-Robert Tisserand

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is simply plant medicine, which is the original medicine of the planet. Applied topically, diffused and inhaled and/or taken internally, plant medicine heals on all levels of of the being: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.  The effects can feel subtle or intense, but are available as a simple tool with powerful impact.

Aromatherapy adds a whole new dimension to your healing journey.  Sessions are of course amazing, but working with each essential oil is like bringing in another ally on your healing team.  I recommend using essential oils daily as part of self care. The essences will assist you to hold and continue the work between sessions. Generally, I recommend using 3-5 essences a day, and your choices of which ones to use will evolve naturally and organically as you build your collection. The essences can work very subtly in the background, and if you use them consistently over time, you are likely to look back and recognize that they have been quietly nudging, guiding and transforming your life all along.

The quality and vibration of essential oils directly affects the depth of healing that plant medicine can offer. I carefully selected Wisdom of the Earth medicinal grade essential oils for exclusive use in my practice.  I have loved aromatherapy my whole life, but when was serendipitously introduced to Wisdom of the Earth in 2016, my life began to radically change. After working with these essences for about six months, I started making some difficult changes in my life that I had been asking for. In hindsight, it took me a year or two to make the connection that my life started changing when I started working with these essences. Only then did I have the massive “Aha” moment to recognize the power of true plant medicine and the profound influence Wisdom of the Earth essential oils had had on my life.

The essential oils are bio-dynamically farmed (in accordance with the natural rhythms of the Earth and even a "step up" from organic), and all oils are hand poured with love.  They are all single ingredient (not blends), non-diluted essences that are layered individually on the skin, allowing them to work in synergy with the body’s own intelligence.  They are are the purestmost potent and highest vibration oils available. 

Healing Touch with Aromatherapy

Clients may request a session where aromatherapy is the primary treatment. Taking the time to carefully listen to and understand health concerns and intentions is an important part of the session. Then, an abundance of intuitively selected essential oils will be used to anoint and layer on the body with gentle, healing touch. When incorporated into sessions, this synergy of all of the plant spirits each with their own unique healing qualities transforms sessions into a whole new level of healing that touch alone simply cannot do.  The selection of essential oils will be different each treatment, therefore no treatment could ever be the same.

 
I went to Christina to get a simple massage to help with some chronic pain I’d be feeling in my neck and upper back. She is so gifted with her hands. She always knows where to go in the body to release the tension that is so built up over weeks. Her wisdom is outstanding in every way. One of the HUGE things that makes Christina’s work stand out is her use of Wisdom of the Earth plant essences. With years of advanced education working with these essences, Christina has created such a sacred relationship with these oils that provides her with an unbelievably effective tool to penetrate stuck energy on an even deeper level. I was truly shocked at the results I had from just a 1 hr massage with these essences. I love watching Christina work with them as you can see her expertise with each oil she selects for each unique problem I bring to her. Work with Christina and work with these oils! You will be changed forever.

Communion with the Earth

When you incorporate aromatherapy into your life, you are infusing your body with the energy of the divine mother earth. The tree and plant kingdom is constantly receiving cosmic wisdom from the sun and stars as well as the richness and vibrancy of the earth. When your body receives the sacred essences, you are becoming one with nature.

Nature’s Medicine

When truly in tune with nature, you might notice that observing the structure of a plant will indicate how it might be used to heal. There is no coincidence that nature mimics human anatomy. For example, study the pattern of juniper needles and it might remind you of dendrites, the messengers of our human Central Nervous System. What do you observe when you look at, feel or hear any plant? Yes, being in communion with nature means being fully present and using all of your senses.

Medicine men and women have remained the wisdom keepers of plant medicine because their deep connection to nature has remained steady. Throughout all time, indigenous healers have understood that there is a cure found in nature for any illness. The key is just to understand it. Even modern medicine is primarily derived or copied from the tree and plant kingdom, taken into a lab to rearrange molecules, and sold for profit simply by recreating what has always existed. Why complicate what has been divinely created for us? As a collective, we have allowed modern technology to distract and disconnect us from nature and each other. However, the Great Awakening is upon us.

The Great Awakening is simply a journey to return home to our own self. As humans, there is one thing we have in common and we simply all want to love and be loved. By reconnecting to nature, we start to remember that everything we need is already right within our reach and we become fulfilled from within. We can relax into our inner knowing that nature will provide for and nourish us. Funny, as soon as we stop seeking anything outside of ourselves, everything we have ever desired suddenly shows up. And it is only in that moment that we awaken.

Juniper

Look closely at the pattern of needles on a Juniper branch, does it look familiar?

Random find and just thought interesting the colors matched the theme. And I do really connect with feathers.

Loved the colors and love the drum and everything about this. Yay shutterstock! I do have a few drums like this and will probably use in sessions at some point, so this was a super cool random find.

I just liked the earthiness of this random find, and the color ties things together especially with heading background color. And it is symbolic.

Liked this because the colors seem to tie in all the other images from the page.
