Product Description

Peppermint (Mentha piperita) Essential Oil

Plant Description

Latin Name	Mentha piperita, Mentha balsamea
English Name :	Peppermint
French Name :	Menthe poivrée
Family :	Lamiaceae
Origin :	Canada, United-States, France, Hungary, India

History and Origin

Originally the product of a natural hybridization between Mentha aquatica and Mentha spicata, peppermint is today a widely cultivated plant. Indigenous in Europe, it is now commonly found all around the globe as an adventitious plant. It likes humid and well-drained soils. In Egypt, some peppermint traces were found, dating back to as far as 1 000 years before J.-C. In Native medicinal tradition, it is used as analgesic (against colic, cramps and headaches), antiemetic, carminative, antipyretic and gastrointestinal tonic, as well as a remedy against flu and hemorrhoids and as a urinary disinfectant. Mitchum peppermint, very popular around the world, has its roots in Saint-Lawrence River Valley, in Québec.

Energetic and Emotional Effect

Peppermint is a general stimulant. Applied on the third eye chakra, it is inspiring and stimulates creativity while enhancing will and activity (solar plexus). Peppermint has a high level of compatibility with spruce. Peppermint’s energy soothes frictions and works on the barriers impeding the assimilation of new information. Symbolically, it allows the digestion of new thoughts and beliefs. Besides, peppermint contributes to chasing fears away from the mental body; it calms mental chattering and dissipates confusion.

Hints

Digestion and liver stimulation: 1 drop of essential oil taken internally in a bit of honey.
Fresh breath: 1 drop on the tongue or as a gargle.
Drowsiness: Apply 2 drops on the forehead and on the nape and breathe in its vivifying aroma.
Knocks and bruises: Apply 3 or 4 drops of pure essential oil on the affected spot.
Itch: Apply pure essential oil (for ex., on an insect bite) directly or diluted in St-John’s-Wort or sweet almond oil for a larger surface.
Headache and sinusitis: Apply 2 drops of pure essential oil on the temples, nape and forehead. You can also prepare a massage oil combining peppermint with lavender (3 or 4 drops in a spoonful of St-John’s-Wort or almond oil) for the neck-nape-shoulders-upper back region.
Mosquitoes and itching: See above.
Congestion: Pour 2 drops in the palm of your hand (can be combined with lavender), rub hands together and breathe in with each nostril 3 or 4 times.
Sunburns: Mix 1 drop of peppermint oil and 1 drop of lavender oil in a spoonful of St-John’s-Wort oil and apply gently on the affected area.

Product Description

Bay Laurel (Laurus nobilis) Essential Oil

Plant Description

Latin Name :	Laurus nobilis
English Name :	Laurel, Bay
French Name :	Laurier noble
Origin :	France, Hungary, Morocco, Bosnia

History and Origin

Bay laurel natively grows as a shrub around the Mediterranean Sea. During Antiquity, laurel was the very symbol of victory and prestige. Associated to the divinity of the Greeks Apollo, Romans and Greeks used to crown their leaders and elite members with its leaves. The classic image of Jules Cesar is associated to laurel.

The use and reputation of laurel is well established, yet, today, its culinary use often offsets its therapeutic properties.

Herbalists used to advise laurel in cases of mild nervous disorders, atonic amenorrhea, chronic bronchitis and breakdown. As an herbal tea, it was also used to treat loss of appetite and atonic dyspepsia. Crushed leaves were applied to cure ulcers and disinfect wounds.

Energetic and Emotional Effect

Laurel is soft and powerful at the same time; it acts on the center of power. Its energy consolidates the solar plexus, which helps you take your place and assume your freedom. Laurel helps you take calm and thoughtful actions.

Hints

Good for colds:

Peel and mince 1 leek, 2 navets, 2 carrots, 1 celery branch, 2 garlic buds and 1 onion.
Cover with cold water in a pan and bring to boil.
Add a small chicken and let simmer for two hours.
Add salt and pepper when cooked.
Take out the chicken and separate flesh to cut it into pieces.
Spoon out the grease and put the meat back in.
Dilute one drop of laurel (pure) in a cup of broth and pour back into the mix.
Serve hot.

Cook the onions in butter or sweet almond oil.
