This Spotlight on Aromatherapy episode features my friend and co-host of the former Irreverent Aromatherapy podcast: Bekki Fishelson Kuber, founder of Blue Marble Botanicals. Get ready for a lot of laughter, irreverence and getting into hot- topics such as "this is good for that" and aromatherapy shower discs (bombs). Look forward delving into the following topics during our conversation: Tornado chasing (yes, for real!) How "Wellness from the Earth" is more than a tagline. Cures, ailments and how holistic aromatherapy may fit in. Stepping back from making therapeutic claims. Blending seasonally such as Bekki's Solstice blend with Frankincense, Myrrh and Blood Orange and loving it for what it is. Starting a business based on a passion: aromatherapy, "the world needs this!" Staying curious: featuring Amber "essential oil", making mistakes and learning from them. Ask questions: contact suppliers. Marguerite Maury and the "Individual Prescription", featuring Patchouli (shout out to: Spiritual Sky!) Soap Box topic: Aromatherapy candles ("there's no way there's Sandalwood oil in a candle!") The specialness of essential oils. Shop Local! Finding special suppliers such as Wild Root Acres. Yes, we go there again: the specialness of essential oils. Shower bombs & washable products with essentials oils: don't go there (essential oils down the drain!?) Learn more about Bekki and her special offerings at BlueMarbleBotanicals.com and on Facebook. Thanks for tuning in! Stay in-touch with comments and questions.
