Advance Aroma course frustation!!

[Arnoldguti15]

Hi

i'm on an advanced holistic course and we are now doing the aromatherapy side, because the first part of the year we spent doing reflexology, and now i'm panicing because it feels like we have hardly covered much!!!!!

We have done 1 session on making creams, mouthwashes etc and i thought this would be really interesting, but we haven't had another lesson in it for one reason or another, and now i'm frustrated as i didn't think i would like making products but it is very interesting. sm=banghead.gif]

There are creams, etc which i have read about making but feel i don't know enough about the subject. One recipe has Cocoa-butter in it but i'm not sure if it's in a block or cream or where i could get it, or if i'm getting the right thing!![&:][]

Has anyone got any words of wisdom or encouragement? Is anyone else's college as disorganised as mine?

[sm=jump1.gif][sm=jump1.gif]I feel like this at the moment especially as we finish in 5/6 weeks. Yikes

Hi fairydust.

know just how you feel as i am on the same course i feel the same way, considering the disorganised nature of the college you should feel very proud of what you have done nearly all your case studies are in, and you are way ahead on your assements.

I for one am very pround of you, you are a good therapist and a kind person, keep up the good work.

mmmmmmmmmm the co co buter ususally comes inblocks and you melt it down.With re your course alot are not fabulous in one way or another.It nay be that the making of creams etc is not your tutors strenght andso thy pas by it quickley. You m,ay need to do some of your own research on this post course. It is not the be all and end all to make your own creams this comes with practice and lots of patience......also as Therapists it will be soon that the making of creams is regulated as it is a fine art to make a cream and bacteria can form quickly.

Shoney,
Your advice is very encouraging thankyou and all the best to you for now and especially in the future when the course has finished. Luv you to Bits. XX

janec,
Thanks i thought it would come down to alot of reading after the course. It's a shame we spent such a long time on reflexology!! I think we should at least cover some on the chemicals though, dont you?
