| Introduction | Sunflower Herbal's products are inspired by nature's natural aromas. We use only organically grown and natural ingredients in our products. Lena is the owner of Sunflower Herbals. She has always had a strong interest in all things natural. After acquiring Personal Alchemy (now Sunflower Herbals) in 2009, she became a licensed aesthetician to get a better understanding of aging skin, Ayurveda science and aromatherapy. This experience led her to writing. Lena has been a freelance writer for Examiner.com where she wrote articles focusing on local organic beauty for the Charleston, West Virginia, area. "I am a life-long learner and full-time, homeschooling mother of two little girls, two rowdy cats and a little fuzzy dog. I graduated from college with my BA degree after becoming a wife and a mother. I am a licensed aesthetician. I own and operate a small business from home utilizing my aromatherapy and skin care knowledge. Both eastern and western herbalism is the focus of my continuing studies with an emphasis in holistic nutrition. I am also a farmer in training. Nothing is ever easy but the challenges make the rewards, oh, so much sweeter." |
