The flowers may capture our attention, but the roots remind us how to stay connected.🫚
When the mind is scattered, it can be worth looking beneath the soil.🌱👀
Roots and rhizomes are the plant's foundation. They anchor, store, nourish, and connect. Unsurprisingly, many root oils share these qualities in aromatherapy.👃
One of my favourite blending techniques to balance the elements is to include a small amount of a root or wood oil in a blend.
Just 1–3 drops💦 can add depth, longevity, and a sense of stability that floral and citrus oils often lack on their own.
