Scented Healing: Introduction to Aromatherapy

Nature’s medicine, or Aromatherapy, has been around for thousands of years. The use of essential oils from plants, flowers, seeds, and tree bark is practiced in the Eastern part of the world on a regular basis. The Western world is now gradually turning back to nature to help individuals heal on many levels. You’ll learn a variety of techniques for utilizing essential oils in your daily life. Aromatherapy should be used as a complement to allopathic medicine, not as a replacement. This is an 8-hour CEU Class. Essential Oils for the class are included.

Pathways to Light

I’m Ellie Stewart-Darden,
My path in the realm of holistic wellness began with a deep-rooted fascination for the human body’s innate capacity to heal and thrive. With a passion for understanding the intricate connections between mind, body, and spirit, I embarked on a transformative journey that led me to become a Board-Certified Naturopathic Doctor.
For over 30 plus years, I have dedicated my life to the art and science of traditional Naturopathy, a holistic approach that utilizes nature to restore and establish optimal well-being by supporting the person’s inherent self-healing process for the body, mind, and spirit. My journey has been marked by countless hours of study, hands-on practice, and a relentless pursuit of understanding the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
Through my journey, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing the profound impact that a holistic approach can have on individuals seeking relief from pain, improved mobility, and a renewed sense of well-being. As a Board Certified Naturopathic Doctor, I have committed myself to not only alleviating physical discomfort but also guiding individuals toward a life of holistic health, vitality, and balance.
Beyond the realm of healing, I find immense joy in nurturing connections with my clients, each interaction a unique opportunity to share knowledge, support, and empower transformative change. My approach is one of authenticity, empathy, and deep respect for each person’s unique journey.
When I’m not seeing clients, you’ll often find me immersed in nature and engaging in creative pursuits. These moments of connection and introspection infuse my practice with a sense of depth and authenticity that I am eager to share with you.
Thank you for considering me as a partner on your path to well-being. It’s an honor to be a part of your journey, and I’m excited to work together towards a life of vitality, balance, and vibrant health.
