Section 1: Application Nuts & Bolts
This unit will introduce important ‘knots and bolts” of aromatherapy and will help to boost your confidence with using essential oils in your daily life. It covers safety guidelines with emphasis on sensitive population and conditions, all possible application methods, blending principles and dilution techniques, and exploration of carrier oils and natural bases.
When using essential oils, it’s important to consider the best and safest application method for the particular purpose. For instance, massage is the best way to relief muscle tension while diffuser is the best way to support breathing functions. The chapter Application Nuts & Bolts covers benefits and safety precautions of the three major application methods: inhalation, topical, and internal. It lays a foundation for the future exploration of healing body and mind as well as creating personalized skin care products. Application methods chart provides information on the most common uses, products, and contraindications.
Safety continues to be a prevalent theme throughout the unit as we dive deep into the art of blending, measurement, and dilution. This one is a fascinating chapter, “meat and potatoes” of the aromatherapy practice.

Section 2: Aromatherapy for Wellness Lifestyle
Life of purity comes from a person’s conscious decision to live happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life. The first step to the life of purity is awareness. Yes, awareness dear one. Are you making conscious choices when it comes to nutrition, exercise, supplements, and stress management? Do you surround yourself with positive, inspirational, and motivational people? Do you make “ME” time for self-care, relaxation, massage, travel, or simply do things that make you happy? Living the life of purity requires conscious and consistent effort to better oneself in all areas of life. It is a fascinating topic with many books written by renowned personal development coaches and gurus in the industry.
