#69: In this episode, Frauke sits down with aromatherapist Jade Shutes to talk about connecting with aromatic plants. Jade shares why it’s so beneficial to go beyond the essential oil and get to know the plant itself. She reveals what aromatic plants surprised her the most and how using her sense of smell has helped her to expand the perception of the aroma from plant to essential oil. Jade shares advice on how to grow aromatic plants, how to take care of them, and where to start if you don't have a green thumb (like Frauke). You'll get tips on how to go beyond expensive essential oils to still get the benefits that aromatic plants provide. This episode is jam-packed with practical information that will get you curious and motivated to cultivate your own aromatic garden in no time.
