☆★3 steps to discover a new you! ★☆You can learn self-care knowledge while visualizing "your current self" through scent◎★☆Introducing our plan☆★For those who think "it's too good to do it just once". You can take a formal qualification course (introductory course) while conducting a "scent health check" using olfactory response analysis in three separate sessions. ✔ Each session includes a formal assessment (advice for improving your physical condition)✔ The feeling of "visualizing" changes in your physical condition and mood through scent✔ The more you learn, the more self-care tips you can get that can be applied to your life! "Olfactory response analysis" scientifically interprets the state of your mind and body from your scent preferences. In this three-part course for olfactory response analysts, you will not only learn the theory, but also gain both "knowledge" and "realization" by repeatedly checking your physical condition each time. The way you perceive scent is linked to your physical condition and emotions. "I didn't like this scent before, but I might like it today" Such changes also have a solid meaning. This three-part course is recommended for the following people: ♪ Those who want to seriously start self-care for their physical and mental health ♪ Those who want to make changes in themselves while learning olfactory response analysis ♪ Those who want to learn with continuous support rather than one-off ♪ Those who are considering obtaining qualifications in the aroma field in the future (The instructor is not only an olfactory response analyst instructor, but also an AEAJ aromatherapist and instructor (from May 1, 2025)). In addition, since the concept can be applied to small mammalian pets such as dogs and cats, it is also perfect for those who want to "apply it to the health management of themselves and their family (including pets)"? ◇◆Recommended points◆◇! You can receive an olfactory response analysis assessment three times! ! Not only can you learn, but you can also take home a simplified version kit! ! Even if you are a beginner to aroma, you can learn thoroughly from the basics! ! The small number of people makes it easy to ask questions and you can experience it thoroughly! ◆◇Price◇◆ In addition to the introductory course, the three-part course will include three olfactory response analysis assessments. 33,000 yen (11,000 yen per session) The above fee includes the introductory course for olfactory response analysts and a certificate of completion, as well as assessment 4,500 yen + 3,500 yen + 3,500 yen (all on weekdays) = 11,500 yen, which is less than half the price at 5,000 yen, making it a great deal!

Which do you like? Which don't you like? - Just by doing that, you can see your tendencies and points of care◎ Moreover, this checking method can also be applied to mammalian pets such as small dogs and cats, so it is also recommended for those who are "a little worried about how my child is doing lately..."! It's OK even if you don't know anything about aroma! This is a course that is perfect for those who want to face themselves in a fun and casual way. We adjust the schedule according to your wishes, such as online or face-to-face (Fukuoka Ropponmatsu), so please feel free to contact us? ◆◇ Recommended for these people! ◇◆♪ I like aroma and want to learn more! ♪I want to objectively understand my current state and adjust it! ♪I want to learn how to use essential oils more correctly! ♪I'm interested in using them in the medical, nursing, and educational fields! ♪I'm interested in "logical aromatherapy"! ♪I want to incorporate aroma into my life with my pet (small animals such as dogs and cats)! ◇◆Here's the key point! ◆◇!

With a history of 1400 years, tiles have protected Japanese houses, including shrines and temples. Among them, there are "Onishi" who have the skills of a master craftsman who draws a blueprint in his head while looking at the drawing with his own eyes without using blueprints or molds, and finishes it only with the sense of his fingertips and a handmade spatula. You can make a one-of-a-kind oni tile by learning from an "Onishi" how to make oni tile by hand using "name-do" soil that is more than 2 million years old. Awaji Island is one of the three major production areas of tiles in Japan, and is the number one producer of smoked tiles that shine with "silver". Tiles have a history of more than 1400 years, and tile making has been going on in Awaji Island for more than 400 years. Moreover, the soil used for Awaji tiles is still more than 2 million years old, and the very fine particles of "name-do" are used to create smoked tiles that shine with a beautiful silver color by baking (smoking) them in a kiln. In Japan, onigawara tiles have been used to decorate roofs as a talisman since ancient times. Even today, these onigawara tiles are carefully handcrafted by oni-shi (demon craftsmen) without the use of machines. Normally, you don't get to see onigawara tiles being made, but in this experience, you can watch the onigawara craftsmen's skills up close and make onigawara tiles together. Since this experience is limited to one group, you can make onigawara tiles without worrying about other people. If you have any questions or questions about how to make them, you can ask the onigawara maker at any time, and it is an experience where you can experience traditional techniques in a private atmosphere. [Procedure] 1. Draw a rough sketch of the image (you can also bring a draft with you) 2. Decide on the design of the onigawara tile 3. Together with the onigawara maker, use tile clay (nametsu) to create a rough shape 4. Let it cure (eat lunch (each person) during this time) 5. Finish the fine details using a spatula and your fingertips 6. Completed (you can also take a commemorative photo with the onigawara maker) *The work will then be carefully dried and fired and delivered in about two months. *For lunch, you can enjoy Awaji Island's specialty "Kawara-yaki" at the facility (additional charge required).

In the oldest books in Japan, the Kojiki and the Nihon Shoki, it is written that the two ancestral gods Izanagi and Izanami created the land of Japan from Awaji Island, so it is called the "Island of Creation". In this retreat (tour), we will visit the sacred rocks and megaliths that are the objects of worship for the two gods. We will walk along the Izanagi Rock and mountain paths to visit megaliths such as Izanami Rock, which are not listed on tourist maps. It is a low mountain, so beginners to mountain walking are also OK. When you go through the narrow rock chamber of Izanami Rock, you will feel like you are being born through the birth canal. You can also look at the spectacular view and lie down on the megaliths, and feel the romance of the creation myths and ancient times while listening to the guide's deep and deep mythological mystery solving stories like Bura Tamori. In the mysterious nature of the Island of Creation, away from everyday life, focus on yourself and relax, refresh, and reborn your mind and body! Recommended for those who: are tired of Awaji Island's tourist attractions; want to see the unknown world of Awaji Island; want to enjoy hidden places and spectacular views of waterfalls, mountains, rural areas, the sea...; are interested in myths, power spots, and ley lines; want to get away from everyday life and relax and refresh themselves.Experience Schedule (The places and order of visits may change after consultation depending on the course and schedule, weather conditions, participants' requests, physical strength, etc.)10:00 Meeting and opening greetings10:15 Departure by car (travel in your own car with the nature guide leading the way)10:30 Walking around Izanagi Rock11:15 Car travel (travel in your own car with the nature guide leading the way)11:35 Walking around Iwakura/megalith12:00 Lunch (Hacchoiwa), Izanami Rock, Amanoiwafune, etc.14:50 Closing greetings (on site or at the meeting place)15:00 End
