Welcome!
I'm so glad you're here.
My name is Tracy Griffiths, and I am a healing arts practitioner, instructor, author and the founder of Aroma Yoga.
®
My mission is to make a difference in the world, so that people can be armed with the knowledge and education for true wellness and health.
I had been using essential oils in my healing arts practice with my clients and students for decades and so using them in yoga was a natural evolution. I created Aroma Yoga® partly because of what my students and clients have shared with me when I used them in classes and sessions. People tell me they are calmer, more focused, happier and I can see they are open more present by simply sharing just a drop or two!
From there, I taught themed yoga workshops, pairing specific essential oils with the elements, the chakra system and asanas. I had been teaching Aroma Yoga® at the Yoga Journal conferences and various yoga festivals and retreats was urged to write a book and produce a video to give other yoga teachers a framework to teach from...
... and Voila!
Aroma Yoga was born!!!!
