Aromatic Waters: Hydrosol Seminar & Sampling

Join Isa of Circles & Cycles for a 30 to 45-minute seminar exploring the beautiful world of plant hydrosols ~ gentle aromatic waters created through steam & hydro distillation. You’ll learn how these botanical mists are made, how they differ from essential oils, and ways to integrate them into skincare, aromatherapy, and movement practices like yoga or meditation. You’ll get to sample a variety of artisan-distilled hydrosols, from tulsi to lavender, sage, and beyond.

Each attendee receives a printed takeaway guide with highlights from the talk and simple ideas for using hydrosols at home and a bottle of freshly distilled hydrosol for an added sensory experience.
