Ancient of Days Organic Patchouli Essential Oil
$20.00
Ancient of Days patchouli essential oil is a top choice for grounding and balancing the root chakra (Muladhara), thanks to its deep, earthy, and musky scent. It encourages feelings of stability, security, and safety, helping to reduce fear, anxiety, and feelings of disconnection. It is often used in aromatherapy to anchor energy and promote relaxation. According to “A Voice for Choice Advocacy”, has an article, ‘The Scent Effect: Transforming Mood and Mind Through Aromatherapy”, which writes that inhaling the aroma of an essential oil transmits messages to brain regions involved in emotions. This is where the limbic system lives and is the region of the brain that influences the nervous system as well. For these reasons, aromatherapists conclude that an essential oil such as patchouli can influence emotions and affect biological factors like heart rate, blood pressure, and the immune system. How that happens is that the oil is absorbed directly into the limbic system by diffusion, where it connects with the region of the brain that influences the nervous system.

Organic patchouli essential oil is blended with fractionated coconut MCT (medium-chain triglycerides) oil, a carrier oil that is non-GMO, kosher, and vegan-friendly. MCT, a fat derived from coconut oil, offers more advantages than mineral oil thanks to its emollient and conditioning qualities. It provides better hydration and is skin-safe because it absorbs rapidly. This oil is popular in cosmetics for its mild aroma, which doesn't interfere with other aromatherapy oils.

This lightweight, odorless, and non-greasy oil is ideal for skincare and massage products that won't clog pores. It is a smooth, stable oil perfect for beauty formulations. MCT (multichannel triglyceride)-fractionated coconut oil provides nutrients and is readily absorbed into the skin due to its lightness.
