Using essential oils for relaxation and holistic wellbeing | Shehnaaz Latif
Shehnaaz takes us through a journey of emotional and physical healing - since young, her mom encouraged her to look at alternative medicine so she mixes ancient medicine with science to improve her holistic wellbeing.
It is all about deeply connecting with nature. We learn about different aspects about ourselves and our bodies, about science, about alternative medicine and then connecting the dots -- holistic means treat body mind spirit all of it together.
She calls it "Whispers of ancient wisdom" mixed with science
"you are the expert in your own wellbeing"
And it is our responsibility to inform ourselves and to know ourselves so that we can heal holistically.
In the episode we go through:
1. How to choose essential oils:
