Plants, Essential Oils & Incense
Aromatherapy is the practice of using essential oils and other aroma compounds for improving psychological and physical well-being. Aromatherapy has been used for centuries. When inhaled, the scent molecules in essential oils travel from the olfactory nerves directly to the brain and especially impact the amygdala, the emotional center of the brain. Which affects; heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, memory, stress, and hormone balance.
Since time immemorial, our ancestors have roasted resins, burned botanicals, and made medicine from the plants near their homes. When used wisely, these herbs have the power to lift the spirits, open the mind, and support the body’s natural healing ability.
— Evan Sylliannsen
I aim to support people in their at-home health care while helping them rekonnect to nature and enrich their lives through the many ways aromatic botanicals can be used. Everyone should have the opportunity to learn how to incorporate the plants growing around them for health, beauty, ritual, and enjoyment. Experiential journeys through the realms of scent, helping establish deeper relationships with plants and a greater understanding of holistic healing through the sense of smell.
Essential oils are blended for a desired effect and incorporated into my therapeutic sessions. We also hand craft traditional Tibetan Dupe style incense sticks and cones. To keep it local, we source our own materials; harvested with the utmost care and focus on sustainability. Pine needles, White sage, Pinon, Cedar leaves, Juniper needles & resins, Pine resins, and Fir resins are just to name a few. Aromas tied to the stunning desert landscapes, breathtaking snowcapped mountains, bubbling hot springs, and remarkable national monuments of New Mexico. Use these aromas during your meditations and/or any clearings.
