THE STORY OF FRANKINCENSE ESSENTIAL OIL

Boswellia serata
(Origin Resin)

Frankincense, sometimes referred to as olibanum, is one of the most popular types of essential oils used in aromatherapy. It’s known for its peaceful and calming scent, and it can even be used in cleaning and to refresh your home.

The aroma of Frankincense essential oil is soft and restores peace.  It is enhanced by a sweetness that is evident in the scent and supports deeper breathing and stills the mind in preparation for meditation, reflection and prayer.

Historically, the tree’s whole resin, extract and essential oils were used in Chinese and Ayurvedic practices. The oil itself is distilled from the resin.  An incision is made in the bark causing the tree to exude an opaue resin that forms tears. 

Frankincense oil helps to overcome nervous fatigue and silence a busy mind, encouraging us to reflect on the past and seek clear inspiration for the future. To explore an essential oil that’s been known for its precious nature and versatile uses, look no further than frankincense.
