Aroma Freedom Technique (AFT)

Experience Emotional Freedom

Gentle. Effective. Life-changing. A simple yet powerful method using Young Living essential oils to help you release emotional blocks and step into a new mindset.

What Is Aroma Freedom Technique?

Aroma Freedom Technique (AFT) is a science-based emotional release method developed by Dr. Benjamin Perkus, a Clinical Psychologist and veteran essential oil practitioner. Unlike traditional talk therapy, AFT uses pure essential oils from Young Living to quickly shift your mental and emotional state.

It helps you: 

      • Identify limiting beliefs
      • Pinpoint emotional roots of stress
      • Gently release stored emotional energy
      • Reframe your thoughts with clarity and confidence.

Whether you feel stuck, anxious, unmotivated, or overwhelmed, AFT is a natural, non-invasive way to restore peace and purpose.

      • Professionals feeling overwhelmed or unmotivated

    Common FAQs About AFT

    Q: Do I have to talk about my trauma or past experiences?
    No. AFT focuses on the present feeling or challenge and works through it gently without rehashing old wounds.

    Q: Is this the same as therapy or counseling?
    No. AFT is not therapy. It’s a wellness technique that works with the subconscious and the power of aromatherapy.

    Q: Is AFT safe for kids or teens?
    Yes! AFT is often used with children (ages 3+) and teens to help regulate emotions and develop emotional intelligence.

    Q: What oils are used?
    We only use Young Living’s pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils for every session and class.

    Q: Can I learn this myself?
    Absolutely. That’s what the monthly classes are for! You’ll leave empowered with tools you can use at home or with loved ones.

     

     

     

    What Our Clients Are Saying

    “My 12-year-old daughter has ADHD and really struggled with emotional meltdowns. After just one session with AFT, she felt calmer—and now asks for her oils when she needs to reset. We do the 60-second technique together as a family. It’s been a game-changer.”
    C.C.

    “As someone in a corporate role, I dreaded Zoom conference calls. I was overwhelmed, anxious, and distracted. AFT helped me eliminate the negativity I carried into those calls. I now show up clear, present, and in control.”
    S.F.

    “After being unemployed for months, I was scared and full of self-doubt. I didn’t think I had anything to offer. AFT helped me release those fears and walk confidently into interviews. I’m now working again—grateful and grounded.”
    D.P.

    “I was able to be free of nightmares of being murdered and now sleep through the night peacefully.”
