Forest Essential Oil Blend 1/2oz.
Forest Essential Oil Blend 1/2oz.
This Forest Blend Oil is .5 ounces of an organic undiluted blend of Siberian Fir, Scots Pine, Black Spruce, Juniper, and Atlas Cedar essential oils. This is similar to the blend included in the Forest Bath Crystal Set found in the Crystal Sets section of my shop. This woody, fresh scent brings one back to the magic of the forest, infusing us with the healing scents and phytoncides found in the trees featured. There is research being done on the effects of phytoncides, (volatile substances emitted from plants for protection against plant pathogens and insects) referenced in an article by Allison Aubrey for NPR. There is evidence that essential oils diffused from certain trees and plants can be very beneficial to our health not only to reduce stress but as anti-fungal agents and white-blood-cell boosters. (Most essential oil practitioners already know this.)
Try it paired with the Forest Bath Set of crystals for a full forest experience.

Ingredient Information
Siberian Fir: Their legendary health benefits have earned them the title of “forest healer”. In Japan where Forest Bathing was born they consider the coniferous forests as special places for the effect they have on health and wellbeing. Siberian Fir oil assists the lungs, sore muscles, aching joints and oncoming colds or stuffiness. The scent is lush, uplifting and warming.
Scots Pine: Promotes healthy lung function, eases muscular aches, spasms and inflammation as well as being clarifying to the mind. The Native Americans used to use the needles of the Pinus sylvestris in bedding to ward off lice, fleas and prevent scurvy.
Black Spruce: With a penetrating fresh forest scent, the Black Spruce is known to act as a decongestant and expectorant. Perfect for cold weather it also reduces minor pain and inflammation and has a calming effect on the mind.
Juniper: With a fresh woody-balsamic aroma Juniper works to clear breathing and detoxify the system. It offers powerful immune support and aids in any kind of body pain, especially painful joints, arthritis and sinus headaches. It is uplifting as well as grounding.
Atlas Cedar: From the Atlas mountains of Morocco, this oil stabilizes and calms the mind while being beneficial to those suffering from inflammation, muscle spasms, or unwanted bacterial, fungal or viral activity. It is an excellent addition to oil diffusers as it is emotionally supportive and grounding.
