All Things Beautiful

I posted in Botany and was advised given my interest that horticulture would be more suitable for me. Here is some of what I posted:

I’m really starting to love plants and have such a great facination and admiration for them. What interests me is their productive role in our enviroment ( not interested in enviromental issues) such as providing us with food, medicines and their natural healing properties. I have read a little on ethnobotany and find it facinating but don’t wish to specialize in it. Also their uses in the skin care/beauty/aromatherapy industry.

I also would be interested in learning anything about their aesthetic beauty ie why they are different colours, why they produce fragances. Their secret little world like their senstivity to stimuli and of course the usual stuff like breading and gentetics. I have no interest in planting and landscaping.

Would horticulture be better for me? What did you learn about in your course?

So you like cars, but wouldn’t want to be a mechanic? My dear, you answered your own question. "I have no interest in planting and landscaping." Define horticulture. Read about the classes taken by the student above.
The study of horticulture would bore you to tear & would be a waste of your time and that of those teaching you. Maybe as a passing minor, but no way should you give any thought as a major.
You touched on many different fields of intrest. But the only ones you gave a no doubt, thumbs down to (enviroment & planting and landscaping) are the main back bones of any horticulture course of study.
The things you seem most interested in have little to do with the actual study of horticulture in itself. I know from my many years as both student & teacher that your heart and intrests would be misdirected should you go in this direction.
Go back & do some more homework in the areas you seem to enjoy. I’m sure you will find a more suitable direction for your energies.
Be happy.

I’m looking for fairs, expos, events, or wiccan festivals to give out samples of the all natural health, beauty, meditation, and aromatherapy products i make. Or if anyone knows of flea markets where the people may be interested. I live in Milwaukee, but I’m looking for anything within a few hours drive away. any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

There aren’t too many in Mke. There’s a Body & Mind Expo that comes to town in the spring.

You may have better luck in the Madison area. MUCH more evolved there!

One other lead is you can check at the House of Magick. If anything is going on, they’d likely know about it.

I just got this in the mail. There’s a Spirit Faire being held October 1 and November 26 at Free spirit Crystals in Butler.

Their website doesn’t seem to be working, so here’s their other info: email crystalhealing@wi.rr.com, 262.790.0748

I have fantastic range of purely herbal products, with very good results. Need to market to people who believe in nature and appreciate the same. But I am still small and cant pay large sums to advertise. Are there any sites which can bring in contact with people who care for natural products and understand herbs, ayurveda and aromatherapy products.

Probably right here is a good place to start. Also, maybe at your local "Whole Foods" store you might want to put up some ads for free. And health shows that they hold once a year in every city.

i bought this oil from diamond beauty 2 years ago. They don’t carry zen nature products any longer. This is one of the best smelling oils i’ve ever had. I can find tropical fruits, but i REALLY want the tropical flowers. The company is based in brazil, but distributed by Swan Walk Ltd in Santa Monica CA. The phone number that was on my bottle is smudged off. Any help is appreciated.

try the body shop or a health/herbal store

My favourite are massages like aromatherapy massages, not rough ones like swedish massage, I find them so relaxing and I sleep so well that night.. and I also love facials because my skin feels amazingly fresh and clean afterwards and is literally glowing for days. I don’t like manicures and pedicures because I do my nails myself and they look fine and I use L’Occitane footcream every night so they are baby-soft.

What are your favourites and why?

sex w/ my bf.
massage.
hot bath

What beauty therapies (massage,facials,aromatherapy,etc) am i allowed to have as i’m an Epilepsy sufferer.I need a good pampering as i lead a very stressful life and could do with some TLC can anybody give me some useful tips and some much needed help. I can only do it on a daily basis as im not able to stay anywhere over night.

Thank you

You can have a massage – but it’s best to get a doctors clearance first, as well as it would be a good idea to have your DR refer you to a specific clinic or therapist. Good therapists know about the condition and will treat accordingly. I personally don’t have any clients with epilepsy – but my instructors in school had several. Even a few therapists themselves were epileptic.

As for other sorts of pampering – again it would be wise to get a doctors clearance. But for most things, I think you should be OK.

Aromatherapy for the Beauty Therapist is the first detailed book to give professionals, student beauty therapists and aromatherapists information on how to use essential oils and aromatherapy in beauty care and beauty treatments. Aromatherapy for the Beauty Therapist also covers material which is suitable for students studying for formal qualifications in this area and is particularly relevant for NVQ Level 3 students. It lists the skin care properties of essential oils and the beautifying effects associated with them, as well as showing how they can be used in practice. The book is full of practical advice and information on how to maximise the use of essential oils within the salon or clinic. Highly illustrated with photographs and drawings, the book also includes step-by-steps of professional facial treatments.
