Have you ever smelled cookies baking and immediately been transported back in time to your grandmother’s kitchen? Or how about smelling Easter lilies and being transported back to a sad memory of a loved one’s funeral? Do you have a favorite scent? What does it remind you of?
All of these scents are directly linked to memories that have been stored in your brain. In fact, scent is the most primitive sense we humans have, because it’s what keeps us safe. The smell of smoke either tells us it’s someone smoking cigarettes, something burning in the oven, an electrical fire, or perhaps our house is burning. We develop all these memories connected with specific scents. And we can directly impact those memories with…you guessed it, scent.
In Aroma Freedom, we access memories through a series of prompts, then reprocess the resultant emotions through the sense of smell.
An Aroma Freedom session is a gentle process which identifies the root cause of why you haven’t been able to make the changes you’d like. Often it is something you may not even realize or remember, and could even be a result of earlier trauma, oftentimes early childhood trauma.
The typical Aroma Freedom session begins with a goal – something you’d like to have happen, but you’re not sure how it could. From there we explore why you haven’t reached that goal yet, and progress through a process to release the blocks that are holding you back. With the use of essential oils, we dissolve the emotional barriers, and you will feel refreshed, with a newly acquired positive and permanent mindset change.

Here is what Dr. David Stewart says about oils and emotional memories:
“When an essential oil penetrates into the central brain it makes it possible for us to access forgotten memories of emotions with which we need to deal. Stored emotions can make us sick. If they are stored in the stomach, you can have stomach ailments. If in the pancreas, you can have diabetes…… In such cases, some emotional trauma has been repressed and stored in the cellular memory that blocks our natural ability to let love flow towards others and/or towards themselves. Hence, when essential oils trigger an emotionally upsetting memory, it gives us an opportunity to deal with that emotion and release it from our systems.”
