Rosemary: The Essential Oil That Fights Arthritis, Anxiety And Hair Loss — And Kills Bugs, Too

Greetings,

Rosemary: The Essential Oil That Fights Arthritis, Anxiety And Hair Loss — And Kills Bugs, Too

Rosemary essential oil is one of my most utilized essential oils, and is beneficial in so many ways.
I use it daily for multiple purposes, such as a hair conditioner, a facial cleanser, a mouthwash, a way to combat anxiety, and even as a pesticide in my garden.
It turns out, I am not alone in enjoying rosemary. Historically, the rosemary plant was considered sacred by numerous cultures. Branches and leaves of rosemary were burned as incense, as its high content of essential oil created a superbly fragrant smoke. The potent smoke supposedly was used as a fumigant to drive away evil spirits and to protect against plague and infectious illness. It also was used as a healing herb and as a traditional culinary favorite.
Today, the essential oil is steam distilled from the rosemary plant and has a powerful effect as one of the freshest and most pungent essential oils. Its aroma is instantly youthful and deliciously herbaceous with camphorous, woody-balsamic and evergreen undertones.

It is said that rosemary essential oil will awaken the fire of creativity in your heart, encouraging inspiration. It will ignite your passion for life and will help give you the vision to follow your path bravely.
I have made a practice of using rosemary essential oil daily and over time have come up with some incredible homemade ideas and recipes.

1. Homemade hair conditioners for greasy hair, dry hair, hair loss and dandruff
Rosemary essential oil will enhance the overall condition of your hair. It can be used alone with sweet almond oil to condition and to promote healthy hair growth. I use sweet almond oil as the base carrier oil because it is nutrient rich. Other essential oils can be added to the mix to create recipes for specific conditions. You will want to add 5 drops of essential oil per 1 fl oz. of carrier oil. Double the ratio for longer or thicker hair. Massage the mixture into your scalp and evenly through your dry hair. Towel wrap, and leave in for five minutes or longer before rinsing.

Anxiety is caused by everyday stresses and strains, demands, upsets and worries of life.

Essential oils can help with anxiety by reducing negative feelings, relaxing the mind and body and soothing both mood and emotions…..More Here
