#28: Essential Oils: Understanding The Essentials

Disclaimer: The following video is designed to educate and inform -- not provide medical advice. You should always consult a licensed medical practitioner when it comes to your personal health, or before you start any treatment. Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts that capture the natural smell and flavor, or "essence," of their source. Often used in aromatherapy, they are a form of alternative medicine that employs plant extracts to support our health and well-being. In today’s special podcast discussion, I have not one, but two certified clinical aromatherapy trainers with me. Joining me are Adeline Lim, founder of Nila Singapore, a homegrown education institution that specializes in essential oils and aromatherapy, and Matilda Pang, a former banker turned international aromatherapy coach who teaches in the International School of Applied Metaphysics Sciences here in Singapore.
