C.A.R.E. Intensive
Applied Aromatherapy Training
April 24-27, 2025 • White Salmon, WA

This CARE Intensive is a four-day training in Raindrop Technique, Applied Vitaflex Technique, History of Anointing and Laying On of Hands, Chemistry of Essential Oils and Emotional Release with Essential Oils. This program provides practical applied aromatherapy skills for professionals who choose to integrate essential oils into their practices, as well as for the non-professionals who want to increase the health and well-being of themselves, family, and friends. Participating in a CARE Seminar can lead to a Certified Raindrop Technique Specialist status and/or Certification as a CARE Instructor.
In this course, participants will learn the fundamentals of aromatherapy, the science and chemistry of essential oils, and how to use essential oils to facilitate emotional release–for others, as well as for themselves. Thirteen specific VitaFlex techniques will be taught, practiced and experienced by all participants. Participants will learn the history and benefits of Raindrop Technique and how to apply it safely. Every participant will receive a full Raindrop Technique session.

RAINDROP TECHNIQUE
Raindrop originated in the 1980’s through the research of Dr. D. Gary Young. Raindrop is a powerful, non-invasive tool integrating the art of aromatic science with the technique of Vitaflex and gentle applications of therapeutic grade oils on the feet and back. The purpose of Raindrop Technique is to stimulate every organ, muscle and bone at a cellular level bringing the body into structural and electrical balance, enabling the release of toxins wherever they may be. This may include those lodged in the mind and emotions.

APPLIED VITAFLEX
Vitaflex is an ancient healing modality that was rediscovered by Stanley Burroughs in the late 1920’s. Vitaflex is a digital electrical stimulation that activates neuro pathways, delivering benefits of the essential oils. The body has a self-regulating electrical system that Vitaflex stimulates.

EMOTIONAL RELEASE
Is emotional baggage keeping you from being the person you were designed to be? Clinical research shows that traumatic experiences are stored on a cellular level and have profound effects on one’s emotions and the physical state of the body. During an Emotional Release session, essential oil blends are both applied and inhaled. These blends are formulated for their unique ability to:
~ Balance energies in the body and open the subconscious mind
~ Promote emotional release of negative stored memories
~ Program the mind with positive beliefs
Class Participants will acquire an understanding of how essential oils may facilitate clearing of negative emotional patterns through lecture, demonstration, and a “Break-Out” session.

CHEMISTRY OF ESSENTIAL OILS
Dr. Stewart’s miraculous insights shared in his book: “The Chemistry of Essential Oils Made Simple,” combine science and religion and demonstrate how chemistry reflects God’s deep love for his children. Scripturally based, this class explores the composition of essential oils, as well as their profound healing effects when accompanied by prayer and faith. Wonderful anecdotes of scientific discovery, chemical compositions, exceptional indexes, cross references and cross-indexed tables of botanical names will be explored. You will also gain a scientific understanding of how the compounds of essential oils reach to cellular levels and how they bring therapy to the various organs and tissues of the body.

HISTORY OF ANOINTING AND LAYING ON OF HANDS
Ancient Scripture is the oldest historical record of the use of hundreds of “precious” oils: Aloes, Cassia, Frankincense, Galbanum, Hyssop, Balm, Spikenard, Cedarwood, Myrrh, and many more for healing. They were considered: “the best products of the land,” “the work of a skilled apothecary,” “most holy” and “treasured gifts.” This seminar will help clarify the valuable roles of essential oils in ancient and modern day health care and show how they are intricately designed by our Creator.

WHAT OTHERS SAY:
“The principles that I learned were really life-changing and the way that you taught them was very heart-centered, very spiritual but also very supported by research and science. It has made it easy to talk about and explain the effects of, even though I hadn’t taken any science/chemistry since high school! The Bible oils section was so interesting too, fascinating to realize that oils and their uses were a “science” and therapy in themselves for so long. And we are so fortunate to be able to use them now in our massage work. Just an amazing course, time and money well spent.
Thanks!!” ~ Sarah-Portland, OR

“Bernadette is an excellent instructor who is both very personable and extremely knowledgeable. She made it easy to learn. The practical aspects of the CARE Intensive made it very enjoyable and made me feel confident in my skills going forward. I already believed in the oils, but feel even more certain and excited about them now.” ~ Kimberly–Alberta, Canada

“I was completely blown away at the level of complexity of the content that was shared during the Intensive. The amazing part of this complex content was the teaching methods and examples used by Bernadette made the concepts completely understandable. . . Bernadette was uniquely able to assess each participant’s level of understanding of what was being taught and would use different tools/methods to help everyone understand the concepts being presented. During the “hands on” work, Bernadette was completely supportive, encouraging and absolutely masterful at making sure we all learned the correct techniques using proper mechanics WHILE
SIMULTANEOUSLY providing supportive and encouraging guidance from the very beginning of our work to the very last minute of the entire 5 day seminar! Bernadette is a genuine gift and represents the highest level of integrity that I now equate with any future instruction from CARE.” ~ Ken–MN

“CARE is a program for everyone who intends to use essential oils for healing their body and mind. There are lots of really beneficial information and references shared, and one will definitely walk out from the class feeling inspired.” ~ Debbie-Hong Kong
