Tapping into the power of nature through essential oils is such fun! Nature provides just what our bodies need with the added benefit of smelling wonderful.

In this workshop, we start off discussing the properties of the most commonly used essential oils. We learn which oils energize us, the ones that help us de-stress, oils that help us focus before a test and others that promote a good night’s sleep.

We then have a blind smell test to see which oils each participant is attracted to. Combining the smells she likes with the properties she needs, she begins to create her very own blend to use for support, relaxation, energy, and more. After creating her custom essence (and naming it!), we then move on to creating a peppermint foot scrub that is invigorating after a long soccer game or hike, or just a great way to treat herself while taking a hot bath.

Each participant will leave with two custom essences and a list of the properties and oils they contain. She will also take home a jar of peppermint foot scrub and a copy of the recipe so that she can make it again and perhaps give it as a gift!

This workshop gives us insight as to what our bodies need and teaches us how much fun it is to collaborate with nature.

If the workshop is full or is not the age range or time that works for you, please email info@studiobirdsong.com and we will do our best to accommodate. We are adding more workshops weekly and would be happy to create another time slot when there is demand!
