AROMA FREEDOM TECHNIQUE
Transform Your Emotions and Realize Your Heart’s Desire
The Aroma Freedom Technique (AFT) is a therapeutic method developed by Dr. Benjamin Perkus, a clinical psychologist and holistic wellness expert. AFT combines principles of psychology, neurology, and aromatherapy to help individuals overcome emotional barriers, negative thought patterns, and self-limiting beliefs.
Here's a breakdown of how the Aroma Freedom Technique works:
Identifying Negative Thoughts and Feelings: AFT begins by identifying negative thoughts, emotions, or memories that are holding an individual back from reaching their goals or living their best life. These could be feelings of fear, self-doubt, past traumas, or limiting beliefs.
Using Essential Oils: Essential oils are then incorporated into the process. Certain scents have been found to have powerful effects on mood, emotions, and brain function. Dr. Perkus specifically utilizes the Young Living Essential Oils during AFT sessions.
Guided Process: Through a series of guided steps, the individual is led to focus on their negative thoughts or emotions while simultaneously inhaling specific essential oils. This process helps to create a shift in perception and emotional state.
Reframing: As the individual progresses through the AFT process, they are encouraged to reframe their thoughts and beliefs, replacing negative ones with positive affirmations and empowering statements.
Integration: AFT aims to facilitate the integration of these new, positive beliefs and emotions into the individual's subconscious mind, leading to lasting change and personal growth.
AFT can be performed individually or in a group setting, and it is often used to address a wide range of issues, including stress, anxiety, phobias, low self-esteem, and more. It's important to note that while AFT can be a powerful tool for personal transformation, it is not a substitute for professional mental health treatment when needed.
