SLP 263: Self Love Quicky - BASIL OIL

Basil is a herbaceous oil that is derived from the flowering tops and leaves through steam distillation. Known botanically as Ocimum basilicum this beautiful oil is renowned throughout history for being the ‘royal herb’.  Originating from the Greek word basileus which means ‘king- like’ it has a very noble and strong aroma that was prescribed in the Middle Ages for depression and melancholy behavior.   Basil has antidepressant, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and antispasmodic qualities. It is commonly cited as a great oil to help with digestive issues, hormonal issues and is a great antiseptic oil. It is one of those oils that should definitely sit in your first-aid kit and makes a fantastic oil to use in the office with lemon and rosemary to keep the mind active and alert.   Basil is a wonderful pick-me-up and can help you feel more abundance, clarity, strength and worthiness. It is also the oil to help reduce feelings of apprehension, chaos, confusion and overwhelm.   ‘I have the mental strength to continue, my mind is clear and focused.’   Links to follow: Website: https://twenty8.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/twenty.8.essential/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/twenty8essentials     SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS   THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.
