I LOVE Shalom’s new home. Absolutely no regrets about moving.

It’s been a year of going from strength to strength. Here’s to many more years of caring for my client in this location. 🤗👣💆🏻‍♀️🕊️

In honour of ‘Aromatherapy Awareness Week’ I’d like to review my most recent book purchase!

“The Natural Approach to the Poisons” by Jane Lawson. Jane is my long time teacher/mentor/ colleague and friend!! She is an absolute wealth of knowledge about all things aromatherapy based.

When we say poison we thing of hemlock and deadly nightshade. ☠️ However Jane looks at some common essential oils that people may use often such as cinnamon, ginger, citronella and lemongrass. She explains why they have more contraindications than benefits!

The book also explains about some that are often confused such as eucalyptus citradora as the least safe eucalyptus. Bay which isn’t as safe as bay laurel and sweet birch being dangerous as opposed to tar birch. Often people thing they are the same and purchase the wrong one!

The book is summed up for me in the quote “They were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they never stopped to think if they should!” Just because it’s been made into an essential oil doesn’t mean it’s safe to use.

This is a valuable book for every aromatherapist as well as enthusiastic home users too!

To purchase either contact Jane on the link below or purchase from Amazon on this link -

Spent yesterday morning with some great people from South Yorkshire’s business community! dnchamber hosted the local chambers (Sheffield, Barnsley & Bassetlaw) to a netwalking event in the grounds of the AMAZING Yorkshire Wildlife Park!

We were treated to a little breakfast (and the centre arranged some lovely fresh fruit for me with the awkward diet!)

Then we headed out in groups to see some of the wonderful animals while chatting with other business owners and making connections!

The rain held off just long enough to keep us from getting soaked! It was a fabulous morning!

That’s a familiar face for small business week!! 😜

Next up is Deborah of Shalom Holistic

“I first started in holistic therapies in 2013 and have been based in Bawtry since 2023. Last year I renovated my current location in Sadler’s Courtyard and moved in!

I love the location and all the amazing new people I have met and been able to help and treat in Bawtry. My location offers free parking and a peaceful spot to focus on your wellbeing.

I love helping people both in my work and outside. I frequently travel overseas for humanitarian work and have gone to work with Yazidi refugees in Iraq on 9 trips over the years”!

WELCOME JUNE!!

Shalom has changed to its summer wreath on the door and some new decorations around inside to welcome summer! (Although it has already felt decidedly SUMMERY for the past week! 🥵)

We have some flowers, playful rabbits and little birds hanging around. 🌸🐇🐦‍⬛ The door wreath is a riot of colorful flowers this time. 💐

What do you think of the summer decorations? Comment below to let me know. ⬇️🤗👣💆🏻‍♀️🕊️

NEW PRODUCT!!

For those who prefer a bracelet to a necklace I’ve gotten a couple of aromatherapy bracelets in stock.

I’ve gotten just a couple of these bracelets in as a trial to see how popular they are. They come with a selection of different coloured felt inserts so they are quite flexible.

They are £12 each or £15 with a vial of oils to use on them. Give me a shout or have a look when you come for your next treatment.
