Himalayan Lavender (Lavender angustifolia var. Kashmir)

DESCRIPTION:

Himalayan Lavender, also known as "Kashmir", is distilled from lavender plants that grow in the high mountains of the Himalayas.  Himalayan lavender has a sweet, floral, herbaceous aroma.  This product is available in a 15 mL amber glass euro bottle.

All Wellness Warrior essential oils are organic.

COMMON USES:

It is used during meditation, affecting the heart and crown chakras, supporting clarity, intuition, tranquility, and peacefulness.  The medicinal properties move phlegm out of the body, which shifts sluggishness, complacency, and melancholy. This is a perfect oil for boosting energy, relaxing and easing stress.  On the body, Himalayan lavender is used to cleanse wounds and decrease irritated skin conditions.  In animal health, lavender is an excellent oil to use aromatically to calm high-stress levels, especially during thunderstorms or when animals are more alert to sudden changes or experience depression, as in from the loss of another animal or their human best friend.  

PROPERTIES:

Analgesic, anticoagulant, antidepressant, antifungal, antihistamine, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antitoxic.

HOW TO USE:

Aromatic – Add 3-4 drops of oil to distilled water and diffuse; inhale directly by cupping your hands around an open bottle and breathe in deeply through your nose.

Topical – Directly apply 1-3 drops of oil to the area of concern or to reflex points (this oil can be applied “neat” with no dilution, or dilute using a carrier oil for people with sensitive skin).

Internal – Place 1-2 drops of oil under the tongue; add 1-2 drops of oil to 8oz of water and drink, or add a few drops as a flavoring in cooking.

Oral - Apply orally to areas of concern with a finger.

Children – Safe for children with proper dilution.

CAUTION:

For adults, lavender is one of the few essential oils that have not been reported to cause skin issues.  Please note however that Wellness Warrior always recommends proper dilution before use.  Wellness Warrior suggests diluting essential oils with a vegetable-based carrier oil, such as raw coconut or jojoba oil. Do not put lavender oil directly on your pet - please consult with a veterinarian before using essential oils with your pet.
