Scent and Wellness

Its fascinating the way we are drawn or repelled by different aromas, colors and sounds.

Today I am working with African pink pepper, Western Australian Sandalwood and Jasmine.   Pink brown and yellow are the colors of warmth and calm is the effect of these oils.   I am blending them into an exotic asian inspired oil I created a few weeks ago for a wellness client.

Besides smelling gorgeous this floral, yet earthy perfume brings one to a place of grounded quiet.   It gives one the feeling of sitting in a great cathedral or brings to mind the ambience of a majestic museum.   In fact, museums are often painted with amber hues to promote calm and quietitude.

Music, Scent and wellness therapies work beautifully together for me.  All of the work work I do resides in the realm of music with bass, middle and top note.  This is the basis of alchemy.  Each note evokes a special feeling, mood or memory.

Our world is indeed one of continual wonder and boring is not a word in my vocabulary.  Let's play.

Have a wonderful, peaceful holiday and may all of your dreams and aspirations come true.
Love Karina
