The Ingredients
We return to lavender again and again for our aromatherapeutic recipes because it is an adaptogen-like aromatic, meaning that it helps the body to cope with stress and regain balance. Like fine wine, the properties of lavender are driven by where and how it’s grown. We use high-elevation plants from a mountainous region of Provence in southeastern France. Lavender grown in the more stressful conditions of higher altitudes is sweeter than the herbaceous plants grown at lower elevations and the scent is multi-dimensional and complex. Energetically, lavender is associated with blunting emotional noise, equilibrium, and dreamwork.’
Often described as an “optimistic” scent, grapefruit oil is cold pressed from tiny aromatic sacs on the outer rind of the fruit. Grapefruit is a relatively new citrus, a hybrid of sweet orange and pomelo that originated in the West Indies in the late 17th century. Because it is rich in the molecule limonene, the oil is linked with mood elevation and its sophisticated, slightly bitter scent is considered to be an energetic cleanser.
Our Yarrow, gathered at elevations between 7,000 and 8,500 feet in the high mountains of Northern Arizona, is distilled fresh after its seeds have scattered and its healing potency has peaked. Rich in azulene, a vivid blue oil that emerges through steam, Yarrow is known for its profound energetic protection and spiritual depth. An ancient ally used for centuries to heal emotional wounds and to open the pathways of intuition.
African Blue Basil brings clarity and gentle stimulation without disrupting inner balance and peace. Grown biodynamically and distilled on a forest farm in South Carolina, this rare hybrid of Sweet Basil and African Camphor Basil unfurls with herbaceous spice, floral warmth, and a hint of camphorous brightness.
