Scent & Movement

A collaboration between scent and movement, taking us deeper inside of ourselves to release and uplift our mind, body and soul. Olivia will take us on a movement journey through yoga during which Nics from Petrichor Oils will add magical aromas to take us on a scent journey via our Limbic System. Activating all the feel good cells in our body.

Scent & Sound

Everything in our universe is information and energy vibrating at specific frequencies. Music is a powerful tool to guide consciousness into higher realms and induce healing. Adding scent activates an even higher frequency using botanical nuances and taps into your personal memory and transports you into your own journey. Hence releasing stress and events from your body and mind.

Essential Oils & Candle Workshop

Introduction to Essential Oils and the benefits of using them in your daily life. Learn to make your own aroma blend or candle. Nics from Petrichor Oils uses only environmentally conscious oils mainly from South Africa, but also from abroad.
