Welcome to Aromatic Elements!
When I first started using essential oils in 2015, I could not even begin to imagine the massive amount of info on the subject, or how complex it could be. Even years later, I feel I have barely scratched the surface.
With all of the misinformation out there, it took me over 6 months just to find resources that could help me with the answers that I was searching for. I finally received help though. Someone was kind enough to take the time and reach out to me. Not only did she answer my questions, but she also told me who I needed to pay attention to for more answers. For this, I am forever grateful as I am not sure where I would be now, if it had not been for this valuable information.
I created this website so that, hopefully, I can make that journey easier for others who have an interest in learning more about aromatherapy.
