Cedarwood
Frankincense
Frankincense
Soft and woodsy, cedarwood essential oil casts its quiet shelter over rooms where it’s diffused, inspiring security and relaxation. Use it at bedtime, or to feel peaceful all day. This wise conifer is an expert at moving the body’s energy, bringing support to tender, red, or puffy areas as they recover strength. Our wildcrafted cedarwood essential oil (also called “red cedar”) is steam distilled from the wood of wild cedars in the misty, mossy forests of the USA. Children often love its familiar scent, which may remind them of pencil shavings.
Use when working with the Root chakra.
Why: Deeply grounding, stabilizes energy, brings a sense of safety and connection to Earth.
Frankincense
Frankincense
Frankincense
The aroma of frankincense—fresh, balsamic, warm, and woodsy—has helped create sacred spaces throughout history where peace and connection to self are possible. Frankincense oil can help support clear, deep breathing—whether used in meditation, during the cold season, or to strengthen the breath and chest on an ongoing basis. Frankincense is on our sustainability watch list. Our distiller is a leading advocate for strict harvesting regulations. He produces this certified organic frankincense essential oil from the resin of wild Boswellia carterii trees in the rural landscape of Somaliland.
Use when working with the 3rd eye chakra.
Why: Heightens meditation, strengthens intuition, and connects the mind to higher wisdom.
Ylang Ylang
Frankincense
Ylang Ylang
The rich, heavy floral scent of ylang ylang essential oil is exotic, sweet, and sensual. It’s well known for its intoxicating, relaxing effects—which quiet the mind, heart, and body. In massage oils, ylang ylang can help muscles release years of stored tension and open the heart to deep healing and bliss. Ylang ylang essential oil is strong; just a drop or two is usually enough. (Too much can become overwhelming.) Our sustainably organically grown ylang ylang essential oil is steam distilled from trees in the forests of Madagascar.
Use when working with the Sacral chakra.
Why: Balances emotions, awakens sensuality, supports creativity and fluidity.
Lemon
Eucalyptus Radiata
Eucalyptus Radiata
Zesty, fresh, and inspiring, lemon essential oil’s aroma smells just like the fresh fruit! The dominant component in lemon oil, limonene, has been well researched. It makes lemon a lively oil that brings a sparkling, refreshing spirit everywhere it goes—use it to clean your home, as a single drop sends germs running the other direction! Trust lemon to support the breath, muscles, and joints, too. Our organically grown lemon essential oil is cold pressed from the rinds of freshly harvested fruits cultivated in sunny orchards lining the mountainsides of Italy.
Use when working with the
Solar Plexus chakra.
Why: Bright and uplifting, clears stagnation, enhances confidence and digestion.
Eucalyptus Radiata
Eucalyptus Radiata
Eucalyptus Radiata
Take a deep, clear breath! One whiff of Eucalyptus radiata essential oil’s fresh, camphor-like aroma can clear the head. Eucalyptus radiata, sometimes called narrow-leaved peppermint, is an excellent oil for the cold season. It distinguishes itself from other eucalyptus species with its “a-terpineol” content. (By comparison, Eucalyptus globulus contains “y-terpinene.” The two components have similar properties, and the oils support the breath from slightly different angles.) Our certified organic Eucalyptus radiata oil is steam distilled from the narrow leaves of tall trees nurtured in the rural Swaziland landscape.
Use when working with the
Throat chakra.
Why: Clears the breath, encourages open communication, and releases grief in the chest/throat.
Lavender
Eucalyptus Radiata
Lavender
A must-have essential oil for any collection! Lavender is one of the most versatile oils in the aromatherapy world. With a soft, floral, fresh aroma, lavender is gentle, yet effective enough for nurturing tender areas through a challenging recovery process. Many studies show lavender’s main components (linalool and linalyl acetate) to have a restoring influence on the entire system—body, heart, and mind. Lavender also has a special affinity for the skin. Our certified organic lavender essential oil is steam distilled from flowers grown in cascading purple fields in the Bulgarian countryside.
Use when working with the
Crown chakra.
Why: Calms the nervous system, raises spiritual frequency, and deepens divine connection.
Rose
Jojoba Oil-Carrier Oil
Lavender
Rose absolute is both gentle and strong. Just a single drop contains the aroma of a full bouquet of roses, with all the comforting, loving feelings that can inspire. The scent is heady with a hint of spice. Use rose absolute during times of emotional or physical stress—it can soothe a troubled spirit and calm sore muscles and joints. Our rose absolute is solvent extracted from thousands of organically grown rose petals cultivated in vast flowering fields in Bulgaria. Rose is precious; fortunately, one drop is often all you need.
Use when working with the
Heart chakra.
Why: This highest frequency oil opens the heart to unconditional love, compassion, and forgiveness.
Jojoba Oil-Carrier Oil
Jojoba Oil-Carrier Oil
Jojoba Oil-Carrier Oil
Jojoba’s molecular stability makes it a favorite for blending, and its subtle, barely-there aroma allows your essential oils to shine. Since jojoba closely resembles the natural oil produced by our skin (sebum), it absorbs easily, delivering luxurious hydration and antioxidants without clogging pores. Our certified organic jojoba is cold pressed from the first pressing of the beans of shrub-like plants in Israel. No additional heat is applied during this truly cold-pressed process, preserving its natural integrity and skin-loving benefits.
When you’re unsure about dilution, a safe rule of thumb is to blend essential oils at 2% (about 10–12 drops of essential oil per 1 ounce of jojoba) for daily skin use. For sensitive skin, children, or the elderly, start at 1% (5–6 drops per ounce). For short-term therapeutic use (like a massage oil for sore muscles), you can go up to 3–5% depending on the oils chosen and the person’s sensitivity.
*When using this oil and any that are listed, a patch test for sensitivity is recommended.

✨ How to Use:
- Apply diluted oil directly over the chakra point.

🌍 Tip for Energy Shifts:
Pair grounding oils (Cedarwood, Frankincense) with high-frequency oils (Rose, Lavender) when Earth’s energy is turbulent — this balances root stability with crown expansion.
Diffusers

The Advantages of Using an Essential Oil Diffuser
Diffusing essential oils is one of the easiest and most effective ways to enjoy their benefits. By dispersing the oils into the air as a fine mist, a diffuser allows you to breathe in the therapeutic properties without applying anything directly to your skin. This gentle method supports emotional balance, relaxation, focus, and even respiratory health.
Unlike candles or incense, a diffuser doesn’t rely on smoke or synthetic fragrance—it simply uses water and essential oils, making it a safer option for your home or office. You can create a calming environment with lavender at bedtime, an uplifting atmosphere with citrus oils during the day, or a grounding space with frankincense during meditation.
Another advantage is versatility: you can blend multiple oils to suit your mood or intention, and because the mist adds a touch of humidity, it can help ease dry air in your space. Diffusers are also cost-effective, requiring only a few drops of oil to fill a room with aromatic support.
Note: Always diffuse in a well-ventilated area and avoid placing diffusers too close to pets, as some animals can be sensitive to essential oils.
In short, diffusers turn your environment into a sanctuary—balancing mind, body, and spirit with the power of pure essential oils.

The Advantages of Using an Essential Oil Diffuser
While essential oils offer wonderful benefits for people, our pets are often much more sensitive to them. Cats, dogs, birds, and other animals process oils differently, and some can be harmful—even in small amounts.
To keep your furry (or feathered) friends safe:
- Always diffuse in a well-ventilated space so your pet can leave the room if they choose.
- Avoid placing the diffuser directly near your pet’s bed, cage, or resting area.
- Use smaller amounts of oil than you would normally, since animals are more sensitive to strong scents.
- Never apply essential oils directly to your pet’s skin or fur unless guided by a veterinarian trained in aromatherapy.
Oils to Avoid Around Pets:
- Cats are especially sensitive to tea tree, citrus oils (like lemon, orange), eucalyptus, wintergreen, and pine.
- Dogs can react to tea tree, clove, cinnamon, and pennyroyal.
- Birds should never be exposed to essential oils, as even tiny amounts can overwhelm their delicate respiratory systems.
When in doubt, keep diffusing light and occasional, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety.
