The
word Lavender literally means “to be washed” or “to wash.” This
remarkable plant has been cherished for its unmistakable aroma
and its treasured medicinal properties for thousands of years.
From its earliest beginnings in ancient Greece,
Lavender has gradually spread and is now grown in many parts of
the world, including France, Spain, Italy, China, and all
throughout Europe. For many years, England was the largest
producer of Lavender; currently, however, France produces more
than any other country in the world.

Lavender is
chemically complex and offers a broad spectrum of activity in
the body. There has been considerable research on Lavender, all
of which offers ongoing support and credibility to its
miraculous healing potential. Many of these studies have
concluded that Lavender essential oil is effective for use as a
sedative, mood modulator, analgesic (reduces pain), anxiolytic
(reduces anxiety), anti-carcinogenic, digestion, and active
against bacteria, fungi, and even insects.
Lavender is also excellent for
healing and disinfecting wounds and tissues. One of the most
recognized benefits of pure Lavender oil is its ability to
soothe and heal burns. Lavender is quite frequently reported to
be beneficial for allergic responses in the body.
Perhaps one of the reasons Lavender is so widely used
and accepted is its versatile, non-aggressive nature. In short,
it is safe and easy to use. Whether it is diffused into the
environment or applied topically, its benefits are far reaching
and healing to mind, body, and spirit.
Apply Lavender to the bottom of your feet or on your
temples and neck for a calming and relaxing sensation. A few
drops of Lavender in the palms of your hands and cupped over the
nose can quickly and easily eliminate stress and anxiety.
Lavender is perfectly suited to calm the mood and entice restful
sleep when used at bedtime for adults and children alike. Simply
add a few drops to your bathwater, pillowcase, or diffuse in the
bedroom. Due to its soothing nature, Lavender can be applied
directly to cuts, abrasions, and burns for a disinfecting and
healing action.
