Methods of Use

This streamlined audio training takes the power of “Family First Aid with Essential Oils” and flips it inside out to give you the principles of essential oil application that the Minke’s have learned and developed over 13 years. The principles are elucidated by personal stories, but the content has less to do with specific essential oils and more to do with how to use them.
