I was blessed to receive a Healing Hands Grant for the Center for Great Expectations in Somerset NJ.  Great expectations provides transformational mental health and substance abuse treatment to individuals and families impacted by trauma, abuse and neglect!  I was privileged to be invited there to teach an aromatherapy class so that these amazing oils could be used to support the residents and staff.  I was deeply touched by the work that was being done.  I met some of the residents and their beautiful babies.  It was very moving. The Center was working on creating a room in which the women could sit, meditate, relax, participate in craft projects...and take a Yoga class via TV.  The issue? There were no funds.  What I saw was a room filled with old furniture, unpainted and cold.   So I jumped in and applied for a grant!  Can I tell you how I felt when I received notification that it was approved with love!  I cried!  So this money was used to create a lovely Zen room for the residents.  doTERRA  not only matched the funds I raised, they also donated hundreds of dollars worth of essential oils. Here is a picture of the almost finished room!    What you don’t see are the yoga mats, yoga blankets, yoga blocks, craft supplies, Yoga videos, diffusers, oils and so much more! All supplied by the funds raised and the matching grant. I was blessed to be a part of this!  Thank you doTERRA.
