Join us for Botanical Alchemy with Laura Hoy. There is a real beauty that can unfold when you make your own aromatherapy products, whether it’s a massage balm or your own unique luxury perfume oil.

Having an appreciation for the natural ingredients, understanding where they come from and their precious qualities can inspire us to bring a whole new level of cherishing when we use them.

In this Botanical Alchemy course you will be introduced to a range of botanical ingredients that we will then use in mixing and making various aromatic products for you to take home with you. We will spend some time becoming familiar with a range of essential oils, their incredible scents, as well as their health and wellbeing properties. You will feel confident to choose your own blends, with support, to enrich the already nourishing base products we will put together.

Tutor: Laura Hoy

Presented by Laura Hoy, who completed her training with Neal’s Yard Remedies in 2009 and there began her ongoing adventure with nature and nurturing and a renewed awareness of her sense of smell. As she began sharing her expertise by way of workshops, retreats and private consultations she wanted to make each experience sensual for her clients, bringing along fragrant plant material or hosting at venues with a connection to essential oil yielding plants. Sourcing scented roses however can be awkward, and even trickier is finding those that are not sprayed with chemicals during their growing cycle. A love affair with growing and smelling roses as well as capturing their scent became a little more than a hobby.
