Yes, I guess you could say that I am semi-retired, still creating some products but definitely not the variety and volume that I once created when I had my bricks and mortar stores.
Will I write a book on Aromatherapy? Nah ...
Dozens of folks have suggested to me over the years that I ought to write a book on the subject and industry that I know so well, however in my opinion that would be futile. All you have to do is search Amazon, Indigo and Abebooks and you'll discover that there are thousands of publications, not to mention millions of results when you Google Aromatherapy.
The market is saturated and unfortunately riddled with misconstrued and convoluted information purported by those who are ill-qualified, sales persons, bloggers and even those who work in health care.
For those who are working in, or interested in the field of aromatherapy or product formulation with essential oils, the two most important books (which I have devoured thoroughly) which ought to be in your collection are by Robert Tisserand and Dr. Maria Lis-Balchin.
Robert Tisserand has over 40 years of experience as an author, educator, researcher and consultant; not-to-mention he has an exceptional online presence at the Tisserand Institute.
Maria holds degrees in biochemistry and zoology, with many years of experience in medical research in the areas of neuropsychiatry, neurological diseases and toxicology and spent 25 years researching the bio-chemistry of essential oils.​​​​​​​​​​
My career as an Aromatherapist and Shopkeeper has been quite literally scentsational. I appreciate all of the support that I have received over the years from my clients, followers, friends and lovers of scent.
I look forward to sharing with you my knowledge, so please check in regularly as I continue to expand my Blog.
As well, my retirement will allow me to spend more time with family and write a memoir.
