OCTOBER'S OIL IS VETIVER....
Think Rooted

Vetiver is a deeply grounding oil that is distilled from the aromatic roots of the grass Vetiveria zizanioides. Vetiver is known in Thailand as "miracle grass" + is known as an "oil of tranquility" in Sri Lanka. With names like this it's no wonder that Vetiver is such an important oil in one's essential oil medicine cabinet. Traditionally Vetiver has been used in aromatherapy to alleviate muscular pain, as a toning oil for fatigued skin (think stretch marks) + is most well known for it's relaxing effect on those experiencing symptoms of stress (anxiety, sleep problems, etc). Consider this your burn out oil- allowing you to sink your roots down into the earth for deep replenishment. 

Burn Out Oil Recipe

• Add 3 drops Vetiver, 3 drops Sandalwood, 4 drops Frankincense + 2 drops Lavender in 1/2 oz organic carrier oil (jojoba, sweet almond) and mix gently. Store in a dark glass bottle with airtight lid

• Use a small drop or two on the wrists. Or better yet use in a foot massage prior to bed or when in need of quick grounding
