Caring for Caregivers: Aromatherapy for Self-care

May 2 @ 9:00 am 11:00 am

In Person Porter Hall

$24 Member / $30 Non-Member

Capacity 15

Discover the power of aromatherapy to support relaxation, balance, and everyday well-being. In this experiential workshop, we’ll explore a curated selection of essential oils. You’ll learn simple applications to ease stress and reset your nervous system, and create a personalized blend to take home. Designed especially for caregivers and healthcare providers, this session offers practical tools and delightful recipes to help you feel more grounded, balanced, and supported.

The TBG Horticultural Therapy Department is launching a pilot program for Tucson-area healthcare workers and caregivers. This monthly workshop focuses on supporting mental wellness and reducing burnout through nature-based practices. Led by our HT Team and local specialists, including herbalists, aromatherapists, and mindfulness instructors, the program invites doctors, nurses, therapists, and other healthcare professionals to experience the restorative power of therapeutic engagement with plants. We welcome anyone who is interested in learning about strategies for practicing self-compassion, stress reduction, and exploring your connection with nature.
