I am so excited to chat all things scents, senses, natural fragrance and the power of aromatherapy.  On todays episode we have Constanze Saemann, who is a Model, Naturopathy student, and the Founder of Basium, a natural botanical fragrance line. Combining her love of travel, nature, aromatherapy, the planet, and healing ourselves and the world, she created her line to help people feel more connected to themselves, and the natural world no matter where they are or what they are doing.  BASIUM is the latin word for the kiss, and everything we put on our bodies should feel like that: Pure, conscious and intimate.Combining a passion for aromatherapy, natural perfumery and holistic self-care, BASIUM began at home and has since slowly evolved into a carefully curated range that is produced in their artisanal laboratory in the UK. Basium's organic self-care products empower people to take good care of themselves and the environment at the same time. In today's episode we delve into: -Why Constanze created Basium -Starting a business while traveling the world -Synthetic fragrance vs natural -The power of essential oils -How scents can be used to heal our nervous system-The challenges of starting a business -The beauty of creating your own business -Coming back to your "Why" in business -Constanze's self care, practices and tools -Connecting to nature even when living in a city -Social media planning and tactics -Why natural fragrance isn't meant to last all day long -Changing out your synthetic or more toxic home and skin care practices one thing at a time -Using scents as a healing modality -The power and beauty of rituals +++ so much more. Have a listen, share with a friend, on social media and let us know what you think. We would be so grateful if you would rate and review this podcast on apple or spotify, and subscribe to these episodes. We appreciate each and every one of you. Thank you for being here, enjoy!  CONSTANZE SAEMANNBasium Shop Basium Constanze Instagram ARL Collection N0 01 - Beauty Sign Up (Use code: ARLPODCAST for $11 off the Collection price)Website ARL Instagram Lisa's InstagramWork with me
