PERFUMERA CURANDERA ON THE ROAD

Founded and created by Leanne Hirsh, Perfumera Curandera was inspired from over 25 years of traveling to the Amazon rainforest and Andean mountains with her Peruvian husband, through their extensive studies with Curanderos (shamanic keepers of the ancient healing knowledge of sacred teacher plants). These Curanderos and the magical plants they heal with inspired the creation of the unique aromatic plant extracts at the heart of Perfumera Curandera. ...from the dusty desert souks of Morocco to Egypt, the West Indies and Africa, gathering knowledge from the local wisdom keepers.

This led to her curation of a vast library of rare aromatics, exotic incenses, spices, medicinal herbs and traditional medicines that all contribute to her extensive collection of precious botanicals & resins. Leanne is available for consultations and bespoke projects.

Lea Garnier has worked in the healing arts for over 20 years and is an accomplished practitioner in this field.  She began her healing journey by making healing paintings that have been displayed, sold and published in Europe and New York State.  Lea found Craniosacral Therapy in NYC after suffering neck and back injuries sustained in an auto accident.  The relief she found from this work was so profound she momentarily put down her painting brushes to pursue training. She now has more than 15 years experience as an Upledger trained Craniosacral Therapist and has a private practice at Sage Center for the Healing Arts in Woodstock, NY, a center she co-founded in 2007, and co-directs with her husband Philippe Garnier.  http://www.sagehealingcenter.org In 2008 she became a certified yoga instructor trained in the Desikachar linage, and specializes in teaching the integration of sound healing and sound awareness (nada) with gentleasana in a yoga class setting.  A safe and fun environment is created which integrates the sacred sound medicine of crystal singing bowls, gongs, mantra and traditional instruments from various indigenous cultures.  She teaches the 1st Sunday of every month from 2 to 3:30pm.
