The
wonders of Frankincense
It
is now Christmas season, which is near and dear to my heart. I thought since essential oils play such a
big part in my life with the amazing healing properties I would share with you
the benefits of Frankincense oil, as it has been around a very long time and is
one of the oils brought to Baby Jesus by the Three Wise Men. It comes from tree resin and has a balsamic spicy very strong scent.
Frankincense
is known to reduce stretch marks, however it should not be used WHILE
pregnant. Apply to your stretch marks
after delivering your delightful bundle of joy!
It is good for uterine health also known for helping to heal scars and
help in labor delivery. This amazing oil
really packs a punch of goodness, as it is known to lower blood pressure too.
You
would be remiss if you neglected to pack it in your first aid kit because it is
effective as an antiseptic and it also reduces stress. Who wouldn't like a little stress relief as their
injury is being treated? It is also
known as the essence of antiquity. It is
touted for helping wounds to heal faster.
It
cures symptoms associated with menstrual syndrome, helps with acne and pimples,
and it is said to help relieve the pain of rheumatism and arthritis!
Not
only is it known for boosting your immune system, it can bring relief from
bronchitis, shortness of breath and aide for the congestion from sinus tract
and lungs. As a mother of two children
with Cystic Fibrosis, this is indeed good news, especially in the cold and flu
season.
But
wait, there is more, Frankincense throws on it’s super-hero cape and improves
digestion, helps with diarrhea has anti-aging properties it even helps with
wrinkles and to top it all off it helps to protect from premature loss of hair
and teeth. WOW! That is a super essential oil in my book and
one I will not leave home without!
On a
Psychological–Emotional level it can help with relieving anxiety, nervous
tension, stress, obsessive thinking and is recommended in meditation for
focusing. If you have a client dealing
with fears, nightmares or even depression this can be of assistance too. So if you’re looking for a little something
for the person who has everything, perhaps Frankincense oil is it!
