So here is one of several Interviews with an inspiring aromatherapist that is available in the Atlantic Aromatic Library.

For many, fibroids are asymptomatic, and we hardly notice them. For others, they can be debilitating. Those of us who have lived with uterine fibroids for years often feel frustrated with the lack of information and understanding about this condition. As someone who has experienced debilitating fibroids, I have searched for answers myself. I want to share what I have learned about this very common, though not often talked about, condition, and how we can take steps in our lives to move in a healing direction.
