1 (4m 8s): Well, I'm here with Jade Chu, who is one of my favorite guests. She's been on the show several times. I think you've, you probably hold the record for the, the most returned guest spots on our show, Jade. Well, I just, I love everything that you do. For those that don't know, Jade is the founder and director of education for the School for Aromatic Studies, and this is a school that offers dynamic, innovative, and professional aromatherapy education programs and certification programs. Jade, you have a great passion, not just for aromatic plants and essential oils, but empowering aromatherapy and arro education and aromatherapist.

1 (4m 56s): So I just always appreciate what you bring to the show. Thanks for being here with us today. How are, how are you, how have you been?

4 (5m 4s): Thank you, Sam, for that intro. I have been, well, it's gardening season, so I've already started prepping the gardens and yeah, life is good right now for sure. Thank you.

1 (5m 15s): So what you wanted to talk to us about today revolves mostly around essential oils for emotional wellbeing, grief, trauma, resiliency, which I think there's really no better shining tool to use for emotional wellbeing than essential oils. But I might be a little biased. What's your take on it?

4 (5m 40s): Yeah, I mean, well, aromatics overall have a profound effect on our emotional wellbeing and I, I feel like it's the, the new frontier for, not the new per se, but do you know, it's the, there's like an olfactory or sense of smell revolution occurring as we begin to appreciate the power of our sense of smell in helping us navigate and cope with anxiety, stress, just all the things that have occurred over the past few years. So yeah, I feel like this is the time for aromatics to shine in their ability to support us.

1 (6m 23s): It makes me think of, there's a TV show I've been watching, this is so embarrassing to admit to, to thousands of people, but I've gotten really hooked on some really trashy bad reality TV lately. It's called, it's called Below Deck, and it, it goes behind the scenes of charter yachts, like, you know, 20 million yachts that rich people rent out for a weekend. And it, it kind of covers the staff and the crew and oh my God, I'm so obsessed. I don't, I don't even understand it. My husband is like, why, why are you watching this? I'm like, I don't know, but I can't stop. Anyway, there, there's one of the crewmates, she's a, she's like the lead stewardist and she is nose blinded.

1 (7m 10s): She has anosmia, which is the complete loss of the ability to smell, and she also suffers from resting bitch face, which like, I just can't help but think there's a connection there. Like she's one of the just most emotionless people, they think she's a robot, you know, she just doesn't have a lot of range in her emotions and like there's gotta be a connection there. The, the inability to smell has got to have some sort of effect on your emotional wellbeing. I just can't, I can't deny the connection there.

4 (7m 50s): Absolutely. That is fascinating. What interesting show that it should have someone like that on there. So Absolutely. I mean, the sense of smell can impact our ability to experience like empathy or connection with others, particularly on that emotional level. So, and even do, you know, the, there's this phenomenon of emotional contagion where, where we pick up the emotions of other people and so she's missing that, right, this, this kind of empathy and connection with others through our sense of smell. And it's not something we're like conscious of.

1 (8m 31s): Yeah, it's clear. It's like you can see it, it's so interesting. Do they know why? I mean, is that like a f you're not smelling the pheromones, you're not smelling, I mean, can you smell the emotions of others? Is that why is

4 (8m 45s): This You can do, you know, they've shown like our body odor and it might not, it's nothing that we can perceive. I mean, we might smell certain body odors that, you know, are, are more consciously available, but there's this unconscious kind of odor communication occurring between us at all times. And they have been able to show, this was years ago in a National Geographic that when people are exposed to body odors of people who are like fearful, you know, who are like experiencing fear or anger, that the people around them show this increase of fear themselves or anger or irritability.

4 (9m 30s): So there is this kind of, and the same with when someone's feeling happy, there's a certain odor, odor molecules we're releasing and it's, again, it's not a conscious thing. It's not like, Ooh, I can smell you're happy today. Or, you know, it's like kind of an unconscious. And then we, you know, and like we co-regulate so to speak with that person, oh, they're ha you know, it's like they're happy, they're, we get this sense of happiness within ourselves and there's like, just our sense of smell is, is gives, gives us this ability to kind of recognize and interpret different social cues.

4 (10m 11s): So yeah, it's like really interesting. Yeah.

1 (10m 16s): Wow, that's so fascinating. So obviously smell is a huge part of, of living emo and having emotions, perceiving emotions. How do we use this knowledge and this science to our advantage, especially when it comes to aromatics and aromatherapy?

4 (10m 36s): Yeah, so I mean essential oils or CO2 extracts which are becoming popular that belong with within the essential oil pallet, so to speak. So probably the most important thing to understand is that our sense of smell when we're taking like an inhalation through our nose, that scent travels up through the nasal cavity and into the olfactory system or our sense of smell system, which is basically the limbic system. And that area of our brain, which is an older area of our brain, is responsible for regulating emotions.

4 (11m 17s): It's attached to memories and then it also will evoke certain behaviors. So if it, if the, the, the aroma or the smell that we're experiencing, if it's something that's makes us feel positive or we have a positive memory based association, well that in and of itself can help like alleviate stress or anxiety. So yeah, it's our, our limbic system is where our sense of smell and the emotions that may come along with it, it are processed.

1 (11m 55s): Yeah. And I'm gonna assume here that no one oil or one smell is gonna have the same emotional response in every human being. Like we're all gonna have our own connections to those smells. But are there in general any generally universal sense that tend to evoke a sense of peace or calm or happiness in most humans?

4 (12m 23s): Yeah, so no, there's not, Because you're right, there can, I mean, our response to an aroma we're experiencing is linked to our memory. So in a lot of my classes I like to share this story of sweet orange cuz we often think of sweet orange as, oh, who doesn't like sweet orange? But I did have an experience years ago when I was teaching a class that I met a student that had a really negative response to the smell of sweet orange. So I asked her to become a client of mine so we could kind of figure out, cuz I, I was like, wow, who doesn't like sweet orange?

4 (13m 3s): And so I worked with her over about three or four months and it ended up that within actually about two months into our work together, she shared this negative memory of that was linked to the smell of sweet orange. So that really got me thinking, you know, when people don't like certain aromas or aromatics or essential oils, one of the reasons they may not like it is because they have a negative memory-based association so that, you know, but if they don't, then yeah, I guess I could say most people in general have a positive response to the smell of sweet orange essential oil or you know, as we're peeling an orange that evokes a sense of like a childlike joy.

4 (14m 0s): Of course there can also be cultural differences, you know, where there's different aromas based upon one's upbringing or the country you live in. So there might be, you know, I remember a student can't remember where she was, somewhere where the nutmeg tree grew, like literally right in her front yard, she had a nutmeg tree. So she has these really positive associations with the smell of nutmeg. So, but there have been studies that show certain essential oils o in general reduce anxiety, reduce stress, things like lavender, the citrus essential oils, even clery, sage and uranium do, you know, can, can reduce that feeling of anxiety.

1 (14m 53s): That's so fascinating. Now I wanna talk about grief, grief and trauma. I mean, they don't always come hand in hand, but for those that are working through really difficult situations in life or are going through periods of grief, are there certain tools that you would want to equip them with or protocols that could help them in those situations?

4 (15m 22s): Yes. So I just took a course that we offer on grief and I was fascinated with the woman who actively works within the hospice or palliative care environments. And it was really powerful to realize how much just having an aromatherapy inhaler can just recenter someone and be in the present moment to be able to process through whatever emotions they are feeling. And there are specific essential oils like rose, of course, rose essential oil, jasmine, lavender, the citrus oils that someone can just pause and, and and maybe even use a positive affirmation and be smelling the essential oils to get them to be in the present moment to grieve as they need to grieve, but also hold that space that, you know, there's a light at the end of the tunnel, so to speak.

4 (16m 28s): And then with my own work and my studies on trauma, do you know when people, because you're, you're right, trauma is not always associated with grief and grief is not always associated with trauma. So, but in my own work and study on trauma specifically, you know, I've been fascinated at the potential of essential oils through our sense of smell to support us as we use other tools, whether psychotherapy or E M D R, whatever the person feels drawn to, to again, affect this emotional shift within us to help us cope better, maybe reduce anger or just get us, one of the things in trauma that I know we try and do is to get people or the individual to be in the present moment, right?

4 (17m 26s): Because the trauma and the grief are about events that have occurred in the past, be it a few hours or days or even years. So essential oils do that, they bring us into the present moment and, and again, i I like to personally attach them to a positive affirmation or some type of meditation because there's such a rich connection between our sense of smell and memory that includes both our emotional wellbeing but also our healthy physiological state.

4 (18m 7s): So yeah, I hope that that made sense. You know, it's like,

1 (18m 11s): No, that definitely helps. And you mentioned the use of a, of a aromatherapy inhaler and I think some folks might not be familiar with what that is. Can you sort of paint a picture of what that is and how those are used?

4 (18m 26s): Yeah, for sure. So there's two types of inhalers like personal inhalers, one's a plastic inhaler that has like a cotton wick inside of it. And each of those individual personal inhalers is, I put about 20 to 25 drops combined, although you could use a single essential oil. And so you basically either apply a blend or it's already in there and you basically open it and take, you know, inhale through your nose, hold it up like, almost like, I think that VIX has like a, a nasal inhaler.

4 (19m 8s): And then there's also metal inhalers and these have like a glass tube that also has a cotton wick in it where you put your essential oils, close it up, and again you inhale from the personal inhaler as needed throughout the day. So it's kind of a portable aromatherapy, you can put it in your bag or in, in by your bed and just have it there to, to smell to help trigger those positive emotional states. Yeah, so they're super easy to use. I actually like to put salt in. You can, the metal inhaler has this little glass bottle that's, that holds the aromatics.

4 (19m 52s): So I like to put salt and make smelling salts in there. I just put my essential oils on the salts, attach the bottle to the, the tube. And then I have this beautiful, so you can use either salt or the cotton pad that comes with the inhalers. They're super easy to use if you don't, if you're not wanting to blend your own essential oils. A lot of aromatherapy companies have like pre-blended synergies that you can put into the inhaler tube either to reduce stress or help insomnia, reduce anger, just provide a sense of overall wellbeing, emotional wellbeing.

4 (20m 38s): Yep.

1 (20m 38s): Yeah. Do you have some stories you could share with us, Jade, about the work you've done with, with clients and, and seeing some transformations occur with the use of aromatics?

4 (20m 50s): Absolutely. So years ago I was working with a woman who I didn't realize my work would take on the, or go off into the field of trauma, but it is kind of the area I'm most interested in. And so she was in therapy and was working through her stuff, but she really wanted the support of essential oils for when she was feeling kind of angry. So I made up this personal inhaler, had German, chamomile, lavender and tangerine, and I just asked her to use it whenever she was feeling this kind of tension, anger, frustration, irritability.

4 (21m 36s): And so she actively, I mean that it's really important when we have something, it seems like such a simple tool, but we need to to use it, right? So she actively used it, she worked with it through her therapy sessions, you know, which she did with with a licensed mental health worker. And she just found it incredibly beneficial and, and that it helped her to stay present and calm within herself as she went through this healing process. So, so that was one. And then even going back to the Sweet Orange client that I had years ago, she was willing to work with Sweet Orange even because she realized that her negative response to it was from a, a childhood trauma.

4 (22m 31s): So we just had it not, it wasn't the only oil we used, it was like part of a synergy or a blend that we used at the time I was doing reflexology. So we would use a little bit of sweet orange in a foot bath or in the cream that I used for the reflexology session. And, and slowly after she had that recognition that, okay, this is, this smell is associated with a trauma, she was able to re rework or renegotiate her feelings around sweet orange so that she could experience the beauty of that essential oil and the beauty of sweet orange.

4 (23m 18s): So that's another example of, you know, it's not about avoiding it.

1 (23m 23s): Yeah. It's almost like the process of not letting that that smell correct power over you because I am, yeah, I imagine it wouldn't be, wouldn't be nice to go through life every time someone cuts into an orange, you, you just, you don't even understand why now you feel sad or, or feel angry, right? Like getting, taking power over those, those parts of ourselves I, I think are really important. And just to have an understanding of them too, maybe even if you just accept, you know, oh, that, that smell makes me sad, you know, it that at least understanding why that connection is there, i, I would think is very important.

4 (24m 4s): Absolutely. Absolutely. And then I know, you know, I have a teenage son, he's an introvert, he has anxiety when he goes to school and just, you know, it's a low grade, it, it, he's, he is quite functioning, but just even to help him out with the anxiety of being at school, being an interviewer when so many people are extroverts. So I made up him an inhaler again, I like to use lavender, but there's other oils. So lavender, frankincense and tangerine are essential oils. He really enjoys the aroma of, so he has a personal inhaler he can take to school, he can use it, you know, as he needs to.

4 (24m 48s): I'm not really sure, I'm not at school with him. He says he uses it at least a couple of times a day. So even with like teenagers, you know, if they have social anxiety or just maybe even a lack of confidence, there are essential oils. You know, just by smelling essential oils we can experience this slight alteration of our perception or you know, we could use like essential oils that overall are grounding like vet averse, cedarwood, even frankincense, you know, kind of let it bring us back into ourselves and, and uplift our confidence in a way.

4 (25m 31s): So yeah, I love my son love. I mean he grew up with aromatics so he loves them. Even just a spritz of lavender hydrosol can help him just, okay, I'm okay, I'm okay. Yeah,

1 (25m 45s): Recenter and, and regroup. I love it. I've had very similar experiences too where sometimes you just, you just need that moment of centered that coming back to the present and it, it can be such a powerful moment and essential oils are can do that so quickly. It's really astounding. And when that happens, you, you can come back to the present moment and then you, you are that much more likely to take steps forward to do what needs to be done next. Whether that's, you know, to get outta bed and or jump in the shower or move your body or go exercise or go make yourself a cup of tea or, or call that friend that you know is gonna make you feel better.

1 (26m 30s): There's just sometimes that little, you need that little bridge and essential oils can be that bridge so easily. I love it. Well, Jade, tell, tell us a little bit about the course that you had mentioned. You said it was a course about grief that people are taking.

4 (26m 48s): Yes. So we had a special guest lecturer Marika, who shared, it's a, a kind of a short program. It's over two and a half weeks, two sessions actually with a support group as well. And what was powerful about it is her stories, her quotes, her experiences and how she really evoked this rich meaning behind each essential oil that was recommended in the course. So I feel like just based even on the feedback we've had from that program, I feel like it really empowered people to, you know, as you were just saying, just sitting with one essential oil can evoke this, okay, I'm okay.

4 (27m 44s): And also what, what is another step I need to take today in this moment to, you know, feel a little bit better or to feel a little bit more joy within myself. And so yeah, that class I feel like it's a real inspiration. There's, there's, there is a lot of grieving. Do you know, I I asked her to teach it because based upon all the things diff you know, people around the world have experienced over the last three years, I feel like part of what we need to recognize is there may be a sense of grieving for what is no longer right.

4 (28m 25s): I mean, we're obviously in a different type of world than we were three years ago. You know, there's still different, people are still kind of processing what they went through over the pandemic year or so to speak. So I feel like being able to utilize different tools, be it essential oils or even taking a walk in the forest, which you know, is another representation of the power of aromatics can help just calm and soothe the spirit and give us tools. So yeah, I feel like the course itself empowered people with the tool of aromatics to, to help them through the grieving process and understand like what are the stages of grief and, and even just that can help us, okay, I'm, I'm in this place and that's okay and I can hold that and I'm gonna use aromatics again just to give me that little bit of, it's a, it's okay.

4 (29m 30s): It's going to be okay.

1 (29m 35s): Well Jade, this has been so much fun. I always enjoy our chats and Me too. The wisdom that you bring to us, us here on the show. Well, as you know, we always love to ask our guests a couple closing questions. It's always nice to hear how these might change in between the times that we get to chat. But the first is tell us just one or two self-care practices you try to do every day to stay healthy.

4 (29m 59s): Absolutely. So I'm up in the mountains at the farm for the next, almost the rest of the year. And so I like to take a w walks, so that's probably, I take a walk in the morning and then just before the sun goes down and just, so that is very helpful to, to my mental and emotional wellbeing. And then another one is I'm a big bath person. I love taking aromatic baths, so bathing top of the list for self-care practice.

1 (30m 35s): I love it. And finally, what's just one thing we should all ditch completely and replace with something healthier today?

4 (30m 44s): Such a great question. Potato chips, replace them with kale chips.

1 (30m 51s): I love

4 (30m 55s): It.

1 (30m 56s): That's a great one. I love it. I love it. Well thank you so much, Jade. Again, we'll put a link below for people to find everything they need to, to connect with you, Jade. And I wanna ask you too, because you're so modest, you never, you never gloat about yourself, but I want you to talk a little bit about the Aroma Therapist certification courses that you offer because I get, I get asked that question very often. People will write in and say, you know, I really want to become certified, you know, what course do you recommend? And I am, I am just unabashedly like this one Jade's course you should, you should certify through the school for aromatic studies.

1 (31m 42s): There's a lot of great certification courses out there, but I just have always had an affinity for your philosophy and, and your teachings. I just think they're very approachable and modern and I I I just love 'em. So if you, in your own words could sort of explain to people what your certification course is, is like in a way and how it might compare to some other courses out there, then that would be great cuz then I, I can start sharing your words instead of, instead of emailing back everyone and, and giving them my opinion.

4 (32m 18s): I love that. Thank you. So yeah, well we offer basically three levels of certification, but I'm particularly fond of our, our what's called a level one. To me it's a foundations of aromatherapy certification. And so I guess, I mean, I do have to say I've been in the field now 32 years and I, you know, I, I guess I've developed particularly the foundation's course for everyone from the existing practitioner, like a massage therapist to the home user because, you know, although I practice aromatherapy and have practiced one of my driving forces is as a human being, I want to know how to take care of myself and my family.

4 (33m 6s): And so I feel like our foundations of aromatherapy certification course really empowers people to use essential oils, you know, for that purpose to support themselves and their family. And then if they do have a practice in some health profession or a wellness advocate, they can be integrating this knowledge into that as well. And so what, what do you know, I I've been, yeah, I feel like our course, this foundations of aromatherapy course, it's, it's, it's, it has written content, it has a lot of video content, it teaches people how to blend a range of, of aromatherapy products from gels to salt scrubs to inhalers.

4 (33m 54s): And then you, the other I think, unique thing about me and our school is I've been writing about blending and how to effectively blend through different lenses. Do you know, I think a lot of, a lot of other schools kind of emphasize a chemistry approach, whereas I feel like, oh, there's actually a whole bunch of different ways you can blend your essential oils, only one of which is, is chemistry based. You can, you know, blend by plant part or, or therapeutic action or just intuitive blending.

4 (34m 34s): So that I feel like has always made us unique as a school. I've, I wrote my first blending manual in 1992, so it was at a time when, you know, there weren't a lot of ideas around blending. So I feel like that that also makes us unique in our approach and we see aromatherapy as a part of the holi holistic lifestyle that includes, you know, how well are you eating, are you getting even just a little exercise, be it walking or yoga or some, some type of movement that can benefit overall health and wellbeing as well.

4 (35m 14s): And I feel like we try and take the stigma of, you know, kind of this maybe fear-based social media information that's out there and really empower someone. No, I, I feel confident in my use of essential oils. I feel safe, I'm comfortable using them. And so I feel like, like that's also part of what we have to offer more balanced, what I consider progressive because we look at all methods of application and just my own unique approach to aromatherapy. So I just wanna say thank you, Sam, you've always been so incredibly supportive of me and, and my school.

4 (35m 60s): And of course we have extend a discount to your listeners for a hundred dollars off any certification program that they choose to enroll in through your links. 1 (36m 13s): Oh, awesome. Yeah, that's such a generous offer. I think it's, I think if people use coupon code revolution, that works, but we'll put the details to that below for anyone that's interested. But I mean, how can I not how fabulous is Jade everyone? And she's just, you're offering the type of education that, that I would wanna take. And that's why I recommend you and I, I just love everything that, that you do. So thank you for what you do. It makes my job a lot easier, right?
