Our Lime artisan essential oil is a great aromatic for supporting recovery from a long or severe illness. It is regenerating, and lifts the spirits with its refreshing scent. It has great flavor, and can be taken internally without causing an imbalance over time.

Inhaling lime can relieve stress, anxiety, and even can help with shock. It has a tendency to draw us back into the physical body, grounding the spirit into form.

Energetically, lime essential oil can release the cellular memory of trauma and injury, making it a great addition to massage oil blends to support this purpose.
