A Return Home to Love
Vanessa Jean, author and holistic therapist, has spent the past 20 years expanding and honing her knowledge base and skills in aromatherapy, public speaking, sound therapy, meditation, retreat facilitating, and as a raw and wholefood cooking facilitator.
With a personal dream as a guiding force, her dream of bringing people together, healing emotional and physical pain through sound, nutrition and aromatherapy, and giving people the gift of returning to a life of love, health of spirit, mind and body and returning to our natural state of joy has found living expression through Food Alchemy with Vanessa Jean.
