Aroma Freedom Technique (AFT) & Memory Resolution
Dissolve Subconscious Brakes, Release Limiting Patterns, and Fuel Your Future Goals with Clinical Aromatherapy
By pairing targeted essential oil frequencies with guided subconscious processing, AFT shifts your emotional energy from fear and doubt into momentum and expansion.
What is the Aroma Freedom Technique™ (AFT)?
Developed by Dr. Benjamin Perkus, the 12-Step Aroma Freedom Technique™ (AFT) is a gentle, step-by-step process that combines guided subconscious navigation with the olfactory power of pure Young Living® essential oils.
AFT is a future-focused approach. We begin with a specific goal, dream, or intention you wish to achieve. As you focus on this goal, subconscious doubts, negative self-talk, and contracting feelings (fear, paralysis, unworthiness) naturally surface. By inhaling targeted essential oil blends at precise moments during the 12 steps, we interrupt these negative neural pathways, dissolve the emotional charge, and set your energy flowing toward growth and confidence.

The Memory Resolution Technique™ (TMRT)
While AFT focuses on future goals, the Memory Resolution Technique™ (TMRT) is a memory-focused process designed to clear emotionally charged past events that you can't seem to feel better about.
Targeted Memory Release: Ideal for resolving a recurring, painful memory or an upsetting recent interaction that keeps playing on a loop.
Preparatory or Spontaneous Support: TMRT can be used prior to an AFT session if a past hurt prevents you from even forming a future goal, or spontaneously during a session if an intense memory emerges that requires focused clearing.
Required Essential Oils & Complimentary Samples
Because AFT relies on precise plant aromatic compounds to bypass emotional defense mechanisms, specific Young Living® essential oil blends are used during the process:

What to Expect During Your Session
Whether attending a virtual group workshop or a private 1:1 appointment, AFT is structured, safe, and deeply empowering:
Goal Setting & Assessment
We identify a clear goal or positive affirmation you wish to embody. We assess how true it feels to you on a scale of 1–10 and identify the inner "voice of doubt" or physical contraction holding you back.
Aromatic Processing
We apply and inhale specific oil blends while guiding your attention through the 12 steps. The aromatic molecules travel directly to your brain's limbic system, dissolving the emotional grip of past memories attached to that doubt.
Energetic Expansion
As the emotional charge dissipates, your perspective naturally shifts. You leave the session with a renewed sense of clarity, concrete action steps, and positive emotional momentum.
