Guest guest Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 It seems we have a lot of newbies who are confused as how to get to " know " an EO or absolute or concrete. It would be great if someone could volunteer to put a basic primer in the Files section. Perhaps it could be based on Mandy Aftel's method of using the scent strip, sniffing immediately, after five minutes, 15 minutes, 30, an hour, two hours, a day, etc. Give tips, how to keep notes, build a written reference library, etc. Any takers? You could glean a lot of recent posts and cobble it together. One of the modertors can help guide you thorough the process.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 I think that Mandy's book covers it quite well and that all newbies should acquire it. Besides that, it's all experience and perseverance in keeping (or memorizing) the impressions of each notes - which I think is personal and cannot be replaced by someone else's experience. Don't you think? Ayala Sender www.AyalaMoriel.com www.SmellyBlog.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
