MELISSA
ESSENTIAL OIL
When traumatized or overwhelmed by forces beyond your control, essential oils can be a life-saver. And, some in particular.
MELISSA - Awaken, Authentic, Restorative
Aromatic Description: Citrus, herbaceous
Melissa (Melissa officinalis), often known as lemon balm, with its sweet fresh, citrus-like fragrance was named as such because it attracted bees. (Melissa is Greek for “honey bee”). It has a wide range of health benefits and uses, including as a flavor in teas and some fish dishes. It is also one of the rarest and most expensive oils.
With its ability to positively affect mood, MELISSA essential oil is often used internally to reduce tense feelings, promote relaxation, and calm feelings of nervousness.*
