Step 9. Grounding Oils To Help You

broken image

GROUNDING OILS are similar to each other chemically as they start with the same “backbone.” Sesquiterpenes are found abundantly in Essential Oils. This constituent is soothing to irritated skin and tissues, is calming, and some have analgesic properties. Some research has shown that sesquiterpenes have the ability to pass the blood brain barrier. They are also known to have stronger aromas.

Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Cedarwood all fall into this category. You can diffuse these oils or apply them topically to the bottoms of your feet.

With properties that help to soothe the mind and body, the warm, woody scent of CEDARWOOD Essential Oil promotes a relaxing environment when used topically or aromatically.

CEDARWOOD Essential Oil provides a myriad of benefits. It is native to cold climates, thriving in high altitudes and growing up to 100 feet. Reminiscent of its size and strength, Cedarwood has a grounding aroma that evokes feelings of wellness and vitality. When applied topically, Cedarwood has clarifying properties. Additionally, Cedarwood is frequently used in massage therapy to relax and soothe the mind and body. Cedarwood is steam distilled from the wood of the tree, giving it a slightly herbaceous aroma.
