Deb Stoltzfus, founder of Inshanti Wellness Spa, will teach Practical Uses of Essential Oils for Health and Home, from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m., October 3. Open to all, this intensive will focus on how to safely use and incorporate essential oils into daily life. Taught in an interactive style, participants will take home sample products, as well as recipes, safety information, essential oil data sheets, a comprehensive manual developed by Stoltzfus and a reference sheet to use when creating oil blends at home. Refreshments will be available.

Stoltzfus is a nationally certified aromatherapist with a thorough knowledge of botany, chemistry and the pharmacology and therapeutic applications of essential oils, as well as  a solid grounding in anatomy, physiology and differential diagnosis. Pure essential oils are not new, nor are they developed in a lab or patented, and no one owns exclusive rights to them. With a passion for pure essential oils and their indigenous healing aromas and properties, Stoltzfus believes they are nature's gift to help humans live healthy, happy lives.
