The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences of Taiwanese professional women in an aromatherapy mindfulness group. Using thematic analysis, seven professional women aged 25 to 51 participated in a six-week aromatherapy mindfulness group led by the researcher. Six members were interviewed within two weeks after the group ended, describing their experiences, including changes in physical, psychological, social, and stress-related aspects. The results presented the following themes and subthemes.
Theme 1: "Stress encountered by Professional Women," with three subthemes: (a) "Juggling Multiple Roles," (b) "Challenges in Work Environment," and (c) "Difficulties in Balancing Work, Family, and Self-Actualization." Theme 2: " Professional Women’s Motivation and Expectations for Participating in the Aromatherapy Mindfulness Group," with two subthemes: (a) "Proactive Attitudes Towards Participation," and (b) "Enhancing Self-Awareness." Theme 3: "Professional Women’s Process of Participating in the Aromatherapy Mindfulness Group," with four subthemes: (a) "Transformations in Stress Relief, Life Reflection, and Interpersonal Relationships," (b) "Group Effects and Outcomes," (c) "Promotion of Personal Growth," and (d) "Stress Relief Experiences." Theme 4: "Changes Following Participation in the Aromatherapy Mindfulness Group," with two subthemes: (a) "Growth from Participation," and (b) "Applying Mindfulness Practices in Work and Daily Life."
