What are Essential Oils?

Essential oils are the essence of a plant, a gift from the earth that is distilled and prepared for you to bring the power of nature into your home and workplace.

Inside many plants—hidden in roots, seeds, flowers, bark—are concentrated, highly potent chemical compounds. These natural compounds are essential oils.

Essential oils give a plant its scent, protect it from hazardous environmental conditions, and even assist it with pollination, among other important functions and benefits.

For millennia, ancient civilizations across the globe have made good use of essential oils for:

Aromatherapy

Personal care

Healthcare practices

Religious ceremonies

Beauty treatments

Food preparation

We now have increasing scientific evidence and research showing that essential oils can be effectively and safely used in a wider range of day-to-day practices and routines for amazing results. 

Essential oils today are so versatile: we can use them aromatically for emotional support, apply them topically on the skin to melt away any discomfort, while some other oils can be taken internally for therapeutic benefits, and to add flavour to favourite smoothies, entrées, marinades, salads, and desserts.
