Whoop! Whoop! This is @Sharon Banfield who is currently studying for her Clinical Aromatherapy Diploma. Here in the UK, it is a 2 year course and includes various physical therapies. This weekend Sharon added KaHuna Bodywork to her existing therapies which include Experiential Healing Coach, Advanced/Clinical Reflexologist, Reiki Practitioner, Sport, Hot Stone, NLM, MLD and IHM massage. We had a lovely weekend, aided and abetted by @Katie and @Davina Salter who generously gave their time to be bodies for Sharon’s training. It’s always the same, bodies say “that’s been the best massage I’ve ever had.” “I never want any other massage again. “ As to students “this is the best massage to give, it’s physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.” Well done Sharon, you absolutely nailed it! I knew you would 🥰. As you learnt this weekend, it’s not just transformational for clients, it grants “freedom”, as you said, for the therapist to really bring change on every level to the client.

So looking forward to this class with my Clinical students tonight. It's the 3rd module of their Summer EO's. Technically Full Moon was last night, but the energies are still there to release, re-set and manifest! Do you know where the saying "Once in a Blue Moon" comes from? It's when we have 2 Full Moons in the same month! Tonight we are going with: Mullilam = calm space to focus. Jatamansi = forgiveness Hakka = manifestation Bog Myrtle = to remove "disruptions" to your manifestations African Bluegrass = going deeper into your calm Zedoary = "Nothingness" just in time for bed. As I do with any EO class that involves meditation, I did a "run through" earlier, and it was serene and blissful! Can't wait to see what results the girls will have! @Jill Newman @Sharon Banfield @Sharon Davis

A question for all you Aromatherapists in our tribe. First some background. I have a Cerebral Palsy client who I see every week. Three weeks ago he informs me had been having hallucinations, as in waking up and seeing animals in his room. The animals being elephants and tigers. We had a bit of a giggle about it. But I did ask if they had changed his meds, no they hadn't. On went my Clinical head, no dowsing for this one. I had never had a client getting hallucinations in over 30 years of practice. However, it can be something Cerebral Palsy patients get. I went with 2 EO's and popped them in a sniffy for him to use twice before bedtime, once after his evening meal and then again when he settles down to sleep. I saw him the following week and he'd moved from Indi to Australia as he'd had a kangaroo visit him! I saw him again today, and he's had not one hallucination in the past week. So, my question to you is: which 2 oils do you think I plumped with?
