Essential Aromatica

Aromatherapy is more than essential oils—it's an invitation to connect with nature and the chemistry of the botanical world.On Essential Aromatica, certified aromatherapist, herbalist, distiller, gardener, and educator Amy Anthony explores the intricate relationship between plants, their aromatic compounds, and their profound effects on us. Essential oils are not mere fragrances; they are chemical messages influencing our emotions, physiology, and state of mind. The Latin word sentir—meaning both "to smell" and "to feel"—reminds us that aromatic molecules are deeply entwined with experience.

    Amy with Gabriel Mojay
    Fascinating conversation during this episode. They went through a wealth of information about the “whole” experience of aromatherapy - the scents we smell, the air we breathe (respiratory) and yes, the herbs we eat in our food. But , the unique aspect they discuss is the incorporation of poetry into the whole experience. So much information, I’m going to listen again!
  • JLamantia
    Simple the best podcast on mindful aromatherapy.
    Amy’s podcast is the perfect combination of education, guidance and inquisitive thoughts. It is by far my favorite podcast on aromatherapy (and adjunct topics - plants, essential oils, etc.). Very soothing and informative.
  • Kebbek6284
    Yes
    Aromatherapy the way it should be. Professional, informational and realistic.
