Description

Botanical Species: Eucalyptus globulus

Origin: China

Eucalyptus is well-known for its clearing and anti-septic properties and is thus extremely useful during winter months. It can be very effective in a steam inhalation to help congestion. Try adding 2 drops Eucalyptus, 1 drop Roman Chamomile and 1 drop Lavender to a bowl of just-boiled water. Lean over the bowl, (not too close) with a towel covering your head and inhale the vapors for a few minutes. Alternatively, blend the same oils in two teaspoons of Sweet Almond oil and massage into the chest and back.

Blended with Citronella or Cedarwood in an oil burner, Eucalyptus can help maintain an insect-free BBQ!

Subtle Aromatherapy: Eucalyptus may be used at a subtle level to cleanse any place where there has been conflict or where negative energies are felt. Eucalyptus is also described as a fragrance of newness and renewal and is recommended for those seeking new horizons.

How To Use

  • Massage: Blend a total of 3 to 5 drops of essential oils in 10 ml of carrier oil (Almond oil, Coconut oil, Rosehip Oil, etc) to make a blend suitable for most adults; halve the ratio for children, the elderly and women who are pregnant or nursing.
  • Bath: Dilute up to 8 drops of essential oils in a carrier oil or bath oil and sir into the bath water. Up to 6 drops of essential oils may be added directly to the running water but this is not recommended with essential oils which are irritants for those people with sensitive skin.
  • Vaporizer: Use 6 drops of essential oils in a traditional candle burner or vaporizer to create an aromatic ambiance.
  • Compress: Add 4 or 5 drops of essential oils to a bowl of warm or cold water, soak a clean cloth or sterile gauze in the water and apply to the desired area.
  • Foot bath: Soak feet for as long as possible in a bowl of warm or cold water with 4 or 5 drops of essential oil stirred in (preferably diluted in a carrier oil before being added).
  • Inhalation: With a towel over your head, lean over a bowl of just-boiled water with up to 4 drops of essential oils added – breathe normally for ten minutes. Use fewer drops for children and elderly.
  • Add several drops of essential oils to a plant spray filled with water and shake well to create your own natural room spray.
