Jiha is one of 16 students who engaged in a transformational aromatherapy learning experience and a rare opportunity to learn from renowned aromatherapy expert and American College of Healthcare Sciences (ACHS) Founder and President, Dorene Petersen and ACHS Aromatherapy Program Chair and Registered Aromatherapist Amanda Lattin, on November 4-9, 2018.

An aromatherapy instructor in Seoul, Korea, Jiha, has a passion to support the mind, body and health of her clients and students. She is especially interested in theory and was inspired to attend the Kona Aromatherapy Boot Camp to meet and learn from ACHS’s Founder and President, Dorene Petersen.

“In the class lectures, I gained valuable knowledge about where the plants used in essential oil production are grown. I care deeply about plant sustainability and I’m concerned that endangered plant species may affect the future of the essential oil industry. I was pleased to learn more about the less well-known oils that can be used to create same or similar wellness results.  I will share this information with my students,” says Jiha.

Jiha creates her own product line, that includes, marvelous, mild, aromatic coffee blends and delightful soothing soaps scented with quality essential oils.  She sells these in her café.  http://atelierhealim.modoo.at
