Essential Oil – The BasicsGet Your Essentials

“An essential oil is “essential” in the sense that it contains the “essence of” the plant’s fragrance—the characteristic fragrance of the plant from which it is derived.”  The oil is generally extracted through distilling with steam, although there are other methods.  You can find more information on the history, uses, dangers and a list of different oils and derivative plants here.

BenefitsGet Your Essentials

Many people find them beneficial for sleep, mood and as a healing agent for many other maladies.   For instance, the effects of Lavender help relax you, relieving stress and anxiety.  Lavender can also help you get a better night’s sleep.  Other oils can help heal small wounds, reduce inflammation or even help ease the pain of a headache.  This Master List from doTerra gives you a look at some specific oils along with benefits.

What To Look For

There is no government regulation on essential oils.  So knowing what to look for is, in itself, essential.  According to an article from Johns-Hopkins, you want to look for the following in choosing an essential oil:

  • Look at the label
  • Evaluate the company
  • Choose dark-colored, glass containers
  • Avoid “fragrance oils”
  • Compare prices

In addition, some oils may cause allergic reactions in some people.  So make sure you check with your doctor or other professional as to any other ingredients in or side effects from a particular oil.
