Rosemary is native to the Mediterranean region and has been used for medicinal and culinary purposes since ancient times. Ancient scholars wore Rosemary wreaths around their necks during exams to focus their minds and boost recollection. Research shows that inhaling its essential oil prevents the breakdown of Acetylcholine, a chemical that is important for brain function. Rosemary EO is helpful for students, or anyone else who needs to clear away brain fog. This oil is also effective at strengthening the body – it can increase hair growth and circulation, and also reduce joint inflammation and pain. Directions: Diffuse Rosemary essential oil in the air to create a stimulating, focused atmosphere. It can also be added to lotions or your favorite carrier oil at a maximum 4% dilution. We recommend Organic Jojoba oil as a carrier oil because it is most similar to our skin’s natural oil. To avoid oxidation, store in a dark, airtight container in a cool location.
