TALK: Aromatherapy for African Descendants in the West
Caring for sun-burnished skin can be so much more than covering it with makeup.
The brown skin of African diaspora descendants is delicate and precious. Join me in this two-hour discussion and demonstration on Aromatherapy for African descendants in the West.
Learn about personalized handmade skincare that is affordable and available to all peoples of colour.

Terrie Brookins: Graduating Apprentice
I am Terrie Brookins, ordained minister, licensed wedding officiant, graphic designer and djembe player. After a career in graphic design, I wanted to shift my perspective and explore my need to help others. While coping with depression, I discovered that aromatherapy offered me a great alternative therapy to add to my own healing path. I decided then to learn as much as I can about aromatherapy in all its aspects and how it can help others heal on their own paths. Once my apprenticeship is complete I plan to offer mobile consultations for people of colour in my local community and products to massage and physiotherapists.
