Sweet Fennel Essential Oil

Sweet fennel has a warm, earthy aroma primarily used for its ability to ease digestive discomfort resulting from ailments such as bloating and indigestion. Its anti-inflammatory and expectorant properties help to loosen mucous from the nasal passages and respiratory system, making it another oil great for treating colds, sinus infections, and bronchitis. It also has astringent and antimicrobial properties that help restore a youthful look to skin affected by diseases such as eczema.

Metaphysically: Sweet Fennel is associated with courage, strength, and overcoming obstacles. It can be used to promote digestion of emotions as well as food, and to release stagnant energy. It's also linked to clarity and balance.

Safety is paramount when working with pure essential oils. This blend is potent and should always be diluted with a carrier oil (such as jojoba, almond, or fractionated coconut oil) before topical application. A general guideline is 1-3% dilution (e.g., 5-15 drops of essential oil per ounce of carrier oil). Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Keep out of reach of children and pets. If pregnant, nursing, or under a doctor's care, consult your physician before use. Diffuse in a well-ventilated area and start with shorter diffusion times to assess your sensitivity.
