As guide to understanding and addressing grief, the language of plants can be a powerful resource in helping to acknowledge and address the shifting landscape of emotions that can accompany transitions and loss. Using Aromatherapy to communicate how scent, symbolism and history can offer emotional insight, reflection, comfort and healing provides a framework for building genuine connection, and honoring the cycles of life, death, and renewal that nurture resilience.
