Aromatherapy Learning (12)

For this class, we learned about blending and consultations.

Some important concepts:

• Holism; Holistic understanding & approach

• Individual uniqueness, Individual identity, Individual remedy

And for blending, a very fun topic that is a harmony of art and science. There are so many approaches that could be used, leading to various possibilities of blends for support.

The concept of essential oil synergy creation being an art and science, more specifically "art and science", brought me back to a note I had:

当时看一个节目，里面的一位医生提到过一句话：

“医学就是艺术”

"Medicine is an art"

—— 比如：外科医生开刀

—— For instance, operation by surgeon

我当时联想到：

科学也可以是艺术

Science could also be Art

—— 比如：呈现以创意、生动有趣的形式

—— For instance, presentation sharing in creative, lively and interesting formats

Something that I felt and came to my mind from my first Aromatherapy class was also:

Aromatherapy is a beautiful blend of art and science.

(Feb 2025)

There are numerous other examples in life that show an intersection, interaction, and connection between art and science... Art and Science are not antagonistic or in opposition to each other, but they integrate together in harmony.

艺术与科学并非对立，而是和谐融合、相辅相成
