NAHA Director's Corner
In 1998, Barbara Fallenbaum turned to the plant kingdom out of desperation. She was experiencing numerous health issues and the medical community at large was telling her that it was all in her head. Knowing that she was not depressed she turned to herbalism and more specifically a specialized form - aromatherapy. Having success in bring her own body back into balance peaked her interest. She started her formalized study of aromatherapy in 2000 through the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy.
Later that year she became Internationally Certified through PIA. Shortly after that she started the PIA Masters Series and completed the 'Chemistry of Essential Oils'. Wanting more knowledge, she continued her studies in the lavender fields of Provence with Bob and Rhiannon Harris.
There she received her certification in two levels of Advanced Clinical Aromatherapy.
In 2003 she became the NAHA Director for the downtown area of Chicago. Through the years she
has attended numerous aromatherapy conventions and various workshops. She has also continued her studies of the PIA Master Series and has completed 'Biology of Essential Oils' and 'Aromatherapy Lifestyle'. In 2005 she graduated from The Institute of Integrative Aromatherapy. Later that year she took the ARC exam and passed thereby becoming a registered aromatherapist.
Barbara is very grateful for her journey into aromatherapy. Not only has it helped to give her back her health, but also it has given her the tools to make informed decisions about her own body.

NEW! NAHA Mini-MarketingTips: Contibuted by Kayla Fioravanti, RA
We are pleased to announce a new e-news section that packs a powerhouse of marketing tips into a mini-segment shared by Kayla Fioravanti RA
 Make a mess and clean it up later. Don't keep getting ready to get ready in your own business, just get started. If you keep sharpening your pencils and filing your files then all you will have is an organized office. Too many "would-be" entrepreneurs are stuck in the planning phase and need to just jump in. You can't grow and learn without the mistakes and lessons of actually doing the dirty work. Yes, there is a place for planning, but eventually enough is enough. So make a mess and clean it up later when the money starts rolling in.
Gosh, those of you that know me, know my passion for organization. I have found it challenging to get some projects finalized perhaps due to my 'organizing' of it all. After surrendering to the inner voice to move forward and clean the mess later, I have to confess it is working. I've gotten a few projects completed along with several more to finalize, all while making messy piles that eventually get 'organized'. Kelly aka Ms. Organized:)
Why not give Kayla's marketing tip a try...go for it... make a mess...and clean it up later!
If this technique works for you please share your thoughts with Kayla at the NAHA Blog or email her direct at kbf@essentiallabs.com |

Essential News-Going Green
E-tips for Aromatherapy Awareness
Contributed by Lesley Wooler RA
Scents and Flavors for the Autumn Season
 Autumn is upon us and here in New England it is the fall foliage that draws many people to this area of the country for leaf peeping. It is also the time of year when we start to think of the warming herbs, spices and scents. The last day of this month is when children and adults alike celebrate Halloween. For an alternative to the regular trick-or-treat candy, consider hosting a Halloween party offering a selection of harvest/seasonal delectables.
One of the main courses could be pumpkin or squash soup that includes seasonal apples. All of our orange vegetables and fruits are loaded with beta-carotene and Vitamin A. I always include spices such as ginger and nutmeg for flavoring. You could also include or substitute with clove, cardamom and cinnamon. Being an herbalist as well as an aromatherapist, I alternate between using fresh or dried herbs as well as essential oils. But remember a little bit goes a long way.
To satisfy your sweet tooth try making carrot cake or ginger spice cupcakes, using many of the aforementioned spices - a great alternative to sugary candy. For those who are a little more adventurous with their culinary skills and can't imagine Halloween without chocolate, then consider making your own candy. Susan Belsinger has a delicious recipe using organic chocolate, pistachios and cayenne pepper. You can find this recipe in her book "Not Just Desserts - Sweet Herbal Recipes".
You can also make a potpourri for scents and looks using whole cinnamon sticks, cloves, nutmegs, cardamom pods and vanilla beans. It shows your guests what the herbs and spices look like and where your essential oils are derived from.
To compliment your harvest feast try diffusing essential oils that coincide with your gastronomic delights. An aromatic diffusion blend to try would be:
4 drops Ginger (Zingiber officinalis)
2 drops Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans)
2 drops Cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum)
1 drop Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum)
2 drops Black Pepper (Piper nigrum)
3 drops Blood Orange (Citurs sinensis)
4 drops Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin) or Vetitver (Vetiveria zizanoides)
I included the orange as a top note and it compliments the spice oils so well. For a more earthy scent try using patchouli or vetiver. Of course you can always tweak the amounts to suit your own personal tastes.
If irritation occurs discontinue use. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
