Essential Oils are a great way to transition your family away from big pharma and the Medical Industrial Complex. Today we are going to spotlight one of my favorite essential oils, Patchouli! Yup, that’s right I love the benefits I experience while wearing this dynamic essential oil. I have found that blending patchouli with spearmint makes a really nice round scent that is both grounding and uplifting.
Top Four Benefits of Patchouli Oil
- Skin Care: Benefit the skin. Use This oil to help get rid of the occasional skin imperfection or blemish, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, or just to improve the overall look of your complexion.
