Aromatic Alchemy, as it was practiced in the temples and mystery schools in Egypt, Tibet and in other indigenous shamanic systems of knowing the Self is a primary course of study in the Academie. The goal of Aromatic Alchemy was, in ancient times, the same as it is today…to use essential oils in a variety of ways to reclaim, integrate and enjoy parts of our inner landscape
(sometimes vast areas!) in a profoundly loving and respectful way, so that the changes brought about are enduring.
Aromatic Alchemy encompasses what is known of modern-day aromatherapy, yet goes infinitely far beyond that as it employs the interactive consciousness and divine archetypal intelligences of the botanical realm.
In the study of essential oils, as single oils and as formulas that unite many to address a common objective, we look into their effects on us electromagnetically as well as biochemically. We learn to pay attention at the deepest levels of ourselves to what they facilitate in us as we engage them, simultaneously affecting us physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and environmentally. We become more and more adept at perceiving and working with energy, our own and others’. We can then apply this skill to our everyday lives, enjoying a richer and more colorful as well as a healthier and happier life.

Excerpt from Aromatic Alchemy Foundation Level I Workshop Book
"The practices you learn here are ones that can serve you well for all of the rest of your journey through this life. You will learn from the essential oils themselves how to access the pathways to previously hidden or inaccessible parts of your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual Self. You will learn as you journey with 22 essential oils, each one of them a “friend to your awakening” how to listen deeply to All of Life, to hear what is being asked for in bringing about health and vitality, balance and beauty for yourself and for others. You will learn how to ‘open the domain’ of your being in ways that will sometimes seem familiar to you, sometimes exciting and new.
You will leave this space with new best friends, some of them human, some of them botanical, all of them multidimensional and thrilling in their capacities to enter into partnership with you to provoke, support and strengthen your mastery, whatever you are doing, wherever you are on your Golden Road to your most joyous and beautiful expression in the world.
You are encouraged to relax, breathe consciously and deeply as taught in the first evening of this intensive…to practice pulling your energy field and awareness in, to powerfully consolidate yourself in your body as you prepare to meet each precious and powerful essential oil teacher…to enter the temple of your being…through the temple of Sacred Aromatics."
WHAT TO BRING WITH YOU: Sacred objects for the altar, an open mind, a journal and your highest intention of what you wish to create in your life!
