I'm aiming to have a body ( would you be up for coming to mine for this class please?) to demonstrate, what some have described as "amazing shit"! From Plant Healer Magazine. "Truth is, we really have no idea exactly how plant medicine works from/within person to person. A plant will work in 10,000 different ways for 10,000 different people. We do know that specific plants have an affinity for healing various specific conditions. And, we also know from many ancestral and indigenous practitioners that there's a way to work with non-physical plant parts to heal - the opposite of a physical, constituent-driven model.

And this applies to EO's too. When we wear our 'Therapist Hat' we know what should fix what's broke, based on the chemical composition of that oil. However, how many times as a therapist have we seen a particular blend work really well on one person's stiff neck, but not so well and sometimes not at all on another?
I ask you to consider the underlying emotional trigger. This can be nigh on impossible to do in some cases. I wear two hats, my Clinical one, and what some folk might call my 'witch' one. When I don my 'witch' hat, I dowse and use Kinesiology to sort out the most appropriate oils. I have been doing this for the past 35 years, and it has never let me or my clients down. The change in a client is almost immediate, and by using these techniques I have learnt more about EO's and their 'deeper than science lab' properties.
I will give you an example. Ten years ago (2016), I had a young lady come to me as she had been suffering night terrors for the previous 3 years. My heart was wrenched when I heard an audio recording of her screams. After the client consultation (the Dr had her on medication) I had in my 'clinical' head what should be used. I donned my 'witch' hat and out came 3 wholly different oils, which made more sense than the 'clinical' ones. We proceeded with the treatment (which included Metamorphosis Therapy). I was hoping that her terrors would at least reduce to just nightmares. She used the same oils in a sniffy stick morning and evening. She returned a fortnight later for her follow up, and had not had a single night terror since her initial appointment, result! We then proceeded to dealing with her underlying anxiety, and each week she took huge steps forward.
We need to commune with plants/oils. Get to know them on a much deeper level than what the chemistry lab can tell us. How on earth do you think plant medicine came about in the first place if it wasn't for our ancestors and the likes of Dr Bach going out there and 'talking' to them? They didn't have labs....
