A wide variety of Floracopeia essential oils and products will be available for sale.<br><br>Join us in welcoming Floracopeia Founder, David Crow for a fragrant and meditative weekend immersion exploring the vibrational and healing aspects of aromatherapy. <br><br>“Contemplative Aromatherapy” is an experiential approach to studying essential oils and their effects on body and mind using a combination of classical Buddhist meditation methods and Ayurvedic medical philosophy.<br><br>There are two basic ways to use essential oils with meditation practice. The first is to use oils to enhance meditative states, and the second is to use meditation to study the oils. In this program we use both these approaches, both separately and together.<br><br>All of our senses can be used to support meditation, contemplation, and concentration. Music and mantra are used to relax and focus the mind and uplift consciousness through the sense of hearing. Inner visualization and concentration on external symbols use our visual sense. Massage, acupuncture, yoga and other physical therapies utilizing the sense of touch have always played an important role in supporting spiritual practice. Diet, herbs and the sense of taste play crucial roles in helping nourish our meditation practice.<br><br>The use of fragrance in meditation, contemplation and devotional practices is widespread in the form of incense and altar offerings. Many of the “sacred scents” such as frankincense, sandalwood, palo santo and agarwood that are used routinely in ceremonies and rituals now have documented research confirming their psychoactive properties as antidepressants, anxiolytics (anti-anxiety) and general mood enhancers.<br><br>For even more great information on this retreat and David Crow, please visit is blog: http://www.floracopeia.com/blog/?p=302<br><br>TO REGISTER: Please email us at info@charym.com or call us at 860-567-7795</font><br> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </td> <td align="right"> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td><img src="../admin/eventimage/crowingarden.jpg" alt="DAVID CROW IN GARDEN"></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="imagetitle">DAVID CROW IN GARDEN</td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table>
