Energetically, it is particularly useful for soothing fears, nervousness, insomnia, and psychosomatic indigestion.
It promotes concentration, dispels negative thoughts, and establishes harmony by attracting comforting thoughts and presences.
A word from Mikaël Zayat
It is not surprising that the king of the forest is honored during the holiday season. Indeed, the aromatic essence it releases is an excellent atmospheric antiseptic, very useful during family gatherings. In microdiffusion, it purifies and scents the air, thus protecting against infections. In massage, it thins respiratory secretions, facilitating their evacuation. It is indicated for colds, sinusitis, or bronchitis, as well as for combating muscle pain. Simply massage the chest, back, shoulders, arms, or legs with a good vegetable oil in which you have diluted about 20% of this essential oil.
A word from Anny Schneider
It is sometimes called "exotic verbena" or "tropical verbena" or even "Yunnan verbena" even though it is not a verbena as such.
This organic Litsea cubeba essential oil is antifungal and antiseborrheic.
It also treats skin mycoses, acne, cellulite and oily skin.
Analgesic and very anti-inflammatory, when massaged but very diluted in a vegetable oil, it is very effective against pain related to arthritis, rheumatism and tendonitis.
Energetically, it is particularly useful for soothing fears, nervousness, insomnia, and psychosomatic indigestion.
It promotes concentration, dispels negative thoughts and establishes harmony by attracting comforting thoughts and sometimes presences.
⇒ However, litsea is dermocaustic, so it is important not to exceed 5% dilution in oil for cutaneous use.
Even if it comes from the Lauraceae family rather than the Rutaceae (citrus), it is wise not to expose oneself to the sun after its application.
