About the Level II Advanced Aromatherapy Sacred Retreat

We invite you to participate in an extraordinary journey through the Plant Kingdom and your own Heart in our Wisdom of the Earth Level II Sacred Aromatherapy Retreat.

Pre-requisites: Normally, a WOTE Level I Certification in Medicinal Aromatherapy is required to participate in this Retreat, but if you have studied medicinal aromatherapy with other recognized teachers, or have a solid foundation of hands-on experience (e.g., as a practitioner or a producer of artisan essential oils or hydrolats, etc.), we are open to discussing your educational and experiential background to see if this Retreat would benefit you.

This retreat includes:

• Rare, uncommon, and exotic essences and their uses
• Sacred ceremonies
• Deepening your Assessment and Consultation skills
• Communing with the plants and trees
• Experiencing the soul of nature
• Movement, anointing, and meditations

What is the benefit of advanced study? 

This retreat will bring you deeper into this sacred work with our beloved plant and tree essences for healing and transformation in new and different ways. More than an education, your involvement will yield a deep alchemy of knowledge and experience, where technique meets intuition and mastery becomes second nature.

As aromatherapists, we often recommend our tried and true oils. This program opens the doorway to other oils that are unusual and profoundly beneficial to the body, mind, and spirit. Expand your repertoire and your confidence with support from the essences, your teachers, and your peers.

Students will commune with their Inner voice as well as the Voice of Mother Earth to develop their intuitive, perceptual, and listening skills. Through information, dialogue, and experiential opportunities, you will receive information from the essences and each other, building a personal knowledge base that is deep and meaningful.

There is time for reflection, integration, and community-building. The oils can activate the magic that lives within you to become a more balanced, centered, and assured YOU. The Retreat will leave you feeling fulfilled, uplifted, energized, and transformed, and part of a new community of fellow aromatherapists.

Where do I go from here? 

Cynthia and I will be joined by others in our circle of aromatherapy experts to guide you on a gentle, but profound, exploration of what all of this means to you, and how you can make this calling an even greater part of your future, either with WOTE or on your own.

We look forward to deepening your knowledge and trust in yourself and the Plant Kingdom!
