The Course
This course explores the ancient and cross-cultural roots of energy protection and how essential oils have been used for thousands of years to support emotional clearing and energetic boundaries. You'll discover how essential oils interact with the nervous system and emotions, and learn simple pre- and post-treatment rituals that fit naturally into your working day. Grounded in both historical practice and modern understanding, this training gives therapists and holistic practitioners practical tools to protect their energy — without compromising the sensitivity that makes them exceptional at their work.
What You Will Learn
By the end of this course you will understand why sensitive practitioners are particularly vulnerable to energy absorption, and how to recognise it when it's happening. You'll know how to use essential oils intentionally to support your energetic boundaries before, during, and after treatments. You'll have simple, sustainable rituals you can apply immediately in your practice — helping you move from reactive to intentional, reclaim your energy, and continue doing the work you love without burning out.

Curriculum
Your Instructor
I'm Karena, a massage therapist who spent years absorbing more than I realised. I didn't have the words to understand it: I was absorbing everything around me, with no way to protect my own energy.
Coaching and essential oils changed that. I found real self-acceptance — there's no such thing as "too sensitive," only sensitive without the right tools.
Now I've shared these techniques to hundreds of people at events and to many coaching clients, to help them discover the same shifts and simple techniques.
I'm co-owner of The Wellbeing Studio Bexhill, a certified aromatherapist, doTERRA Gold Leader, and Life Coach with over 800 hours coaching therapists and holistic practitioners.
I created this training because I know how deeply therapists carry the weight of their work — and how transformative the right tools can be. I teach those tools here, so you can stay open and sensitive without absorbing what isn't yours to carry.
Client Feedback on Working with Karena
Here's what a few of Karena's coaching clients have shared about their experience working with her.
"The session I had with Karena was incredibly powerful... I truly believe it helped me release years of negative thoughts and deeply held emotions. What made it so special was how safe and supported I felt throughout." — D.P.
"Without realising it, I had been holding onto a very heavy feeling in my chest. With Karena's guided words, I felt the heavy load shift... I felt a deep sense of calm and release." — C.D.
"It was a totally safe space for me to talk. Karena 'saw' me, she 'heard' me, she acknowledged me... I don't think I have ever been acknowledged so fully before." — A.C.
