During this course you will be introduced to the beautiful world of essential oils and their amazing mood boosting, skin clearing, pain relief, sleep aid, emotional balancing and healing properties. I have merged both my passion for essential oils as well as my passion for DIY (do it yourself) projects to tailor a unique experience where you will learn how to make 7 personal products, toxin-free, cruelty-free and poison-free. Most people that learn about essential oils tend to get overwhelmed with what to do with the information. From my personal experience of providing a multitude of introductory lectures on the subject, I realized that it was hard to retain the practical uses of essential oils on day-to-day circumstances, which is why this course uses essential oils for self-care, specifically to make your own natural products (beauty and home), to ground these concepts and lifestyle changes in a very practical, entertaining and simple way! Join me for storytelling and fun DIY recipes to expand on your self-love, fire your self-healing codes and raising your consciousness.
Although you will learn about oil uses and how they can help us cope, heal and transcend states and limitations, this course will be centered on self-care and making it fun. That means you don't have to be an expert whatsoever, simply a curious mind tapping into alternative ways of honoring yourself and the fullness of who you are. We will mainly focus on the practical side of incorporating the oils in your routines with the use of the recipes, which I encourage you to modify and experiment with in order to find your favorite scents, once you get more fascinated about essential oils. The recipes are simple enough to follow and also to modify and remember. We also use products you can easily afford or find around your home, and then your oils. That was my main goal here, to make it fun! To make self-care a habit that also engages our creativity, our senses and our intention. I want to show you how easy it is to start a lifestyle shift, deepen into natural self-care practices and balancing emotions and mental stress. I want for you to witness the joys of making your own handmade goodies, awakening your intuition and learning how to make self-care a creative process.
Because this course is centered around self-care with the use of essential oils, we won't be going too deep into dilution rates, types of carrier oils, specific guidelines for pregnancy, babies, children, pets or any specific conditions you may have, which require you to consult your doctor before adding a new component to your lifestyle. You will need to do your own research about what brands to get and learn about what a legit oil should have on the label, as well as confirm that your brand can be used topically (not just on a diffuser) and/or internally as a supplement. You will rather learn how to use basic, specialty and citrus oils, and how to make some of your own beauty and personal care products. Why? Because the second goal of this course is to raise awareness about product toxicity, to educate you about alternatives that are holistically inclined and empower you about becoming conscious not only about taking charge of your own wellness, but to be conscious about the commercial products you use and what you put in your body. #selfcare #essentialoils #aromatherapy #relaxation #crueltyfree #naturalproducts #diy #selflove #holisticliving #holistichealth #selfesteem #motivation #inspiration #diyproducts
