Course Highlights 

We will be studying the Five Elements of Chinese Medicine (Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, and Metal) in more depth in this course, following up on the introduction to the Five Elements presented in EO Course 3 (EO 3).* From a Five-Element theory point of view, we will explore the relationship between our sense of smell, the energy of emotions, and the energy of various essential oils. (*NOTE: The Five-Element introduction in EO 3 is helpful but not required prior to taking this course.)

Included are special videos about some of the primary emotions associated with each of the Five Elements, my essential oil recommendations for each element, and video demonstrations of how to use essential oils in acupressure treatments to help those emotions.

In addition, some of the videos feature my own essential oil recipes, specific to individual elements. The recipes are also provided in the course Workbook for ease of use.

BONUS:  I also demonstrate how to do some energy healing techniques. You can follow along with the video demonstrations to learn how to do these techniques and start using them immediately.
