Although the entries were few for the Authentic Aromatherapy First Birthday giveaway, it was still extremely difficult for me to choose a winner. After a lot of consideration, it came down to two nominations, and I simply couldn’t decide between the two of them. So – I chose both!
Why I Chose These Winners for the Authentic Aromatherapy Giveaway
All nominees were worthy of the book, and I really wish that I could have given each nominee a book. However, I am in the business of earning a living, so I had to draw the line somewhere!
I choose both of the winners nominated because I hope that, given both of their circumstances, they can find some useful information in the book to ease some of the suffering that they are both going through. Every little bit helps – and education is key when dealing with such conditions. Even if they only take away one small bit of advice from the book, it will have been worth it.
The lucky nominees who won this giveaway were:
-
Deannie Gresser (nominated by Anne Bankowski)
-
Charlotte (nominated by Karen Stephenson).
Congratulations, ladies!
Thank You Gifts for the Successful Nominees Go to….
Both nominees were nominated by friends who saw the struggle that these women were facing and reached out to them via social media, or work, to offer support in their hour of need. Social media, despite some of its negative attachments, has allowed us to support people online that we may never have “met” otherwise.
I myself have made several friends through social media – only one of which I have actually met in person – who have supported me and been a “cheerleader” (both personally and professionally) when I have needed it the most.
Those who nominated the winning nominees for the Authentic Aromatherapy First Birthday giveaway were:
-
Anne Bankowski
-
Karen Stephenson.
Both lucky ladies will receive a small aromatic gift for their kindness!
Get Your Copy of Authentic Aromatherapy
If you were not lucky enough to win this particular book giveaway, you can still purchase an unsigned copy of Authentic Aromatherapy from many online outlets, including Amazon, and other retail stores. Prices vary depending on the retailer.
If you would like a signed copy of the book, you can only obtain one by purchasing directly from the Sedona Aromatherapie website – but you also receive a complimentary aromatherapy blend with your order! The cost is $19.95 plus shipping.
Thank you to everyone who took part in the giveaway this time! I do appreciate your participation.
And a big THANK YOU to everyone who has purchased my book in this first year. I hope that it continues to delight and help many more in the years to come.
Oh my goodness, I forgot to say, Happy first Birthday!!!!!! I was so excited about the give away and then actually winning a copy of the book, I forgot about it being it’s birthday! 🙂 🙂 🙂
THANK YOU, BOTH, SO VERY MUCH!!!! I am just tickled to have won your wonderful book, Sharon! I will treasure it and use it happily. I have truly been blessed. I will be getting the book today as it is being picked up from the post office for me. I just can’t stop smiling and it’s a wonderful feeling. Again, thank you both for thinking of me, the book give away, the book itself, and for being two wonderful hearted ladies :). Much love and lots of hugs from me to you both, Sharon and Anne!
Sharon, First let me thank you for being a generous and kind person. These qualities are not always easy to find in people, especially on the internet. Your post above says much about you as a person. I want to thank you also for the time and effort that you put forth on your blog and social media sites. We don’t always think to say it, but you are appreciated! Your book, blog and classes are a great wealth of knowledge.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Anne. It means a lot! You are right – we should always try to find the words to say “thank you” in whatever way we can, as it is often assumed but not always voiced 🙂 So, thank you!
