Description

Say hello to the versatile world of wellness with Edens Garden's Basil essential oil. While it may bring to mind delicious pasta and pizza, this essential oil offers a plethora of benefits beyond the kitchen. Known for its calming aroma, Basil oil provides a soothing experience when diffused or applied topically, making it a favorite in aromatherapy.

Basil oil is more than just a pleasant scent; it's a historical remedy for soothing the spirit. It's said to help build confidence, reduce fear and negative thoughts, and combat mental fatigue. Just like 16th-century herbalist John Gerard, who used it to comfort the downhearted, you too can leverage its uplifting properties.

But the wonders of Basil essential oil don't stop there. It's a natural solution for skin discomforts, often used to relieve itchiness from insect bites and soothe skin infections, while also acting as a repellent. This oil, derived from the Sweet Basil linalool chemotype native to Africa and Asia, is a testament to the plant's rich history of use throughout India, the Mediterranean, and North Africa.

For an easy DIY, try adding a few drops of diluted Basil essential oil to a warm bath for a relaxing soak or diffuse it in your living space for a calming ambiance. Remember, always dilute before topical application. With Edens Garden's Basil essential oil, you're investing in an aromatic journey that uplifts, soothes, and promotes wellness.

Absolutely love Basil

Basil by far is one of my favorite oils from EG, its strong, but relaxing, I mainly use Basil EO for manifesting as its been used for centuries for goodluck and prosperity.
I recommend 30ml for sure!

Perfect for massages and a little in the diffuser too!
