Melissa Essential Oil is actually from the mint family and steam distilled from the leaves and flowers of the plant. It's definitely one of the pricier oils, has a gentle lemony Aroma, and some pretty amazing properties. It's most often used for skin related issues as well as viral issues and emotional support.
Primary Benefits Of Melissa Essential Oil:-
-Supports a healthy immune system
-Calms tension and nerves
-Soothes occasional stomach discomfort
It is also said to support a person through spiritual awakening. Like citrus oils, its citrus-like aroma is uplifting to the mind and energy, but it's especially uplifting to the soul, said to support a person in remembering who they are and why they are here. We see this oil as a good one for those ''dark nights of the soul''. When we are in the depths of hopelessness or self doubt, feeling desperate or unable to go forward. Melissa essential oil can open us up to the potential of joy, teaching us how to allow it to flow through us and our life again(especially when that seems like a pipe dream).It lifts up out of those dark places and back into light and hope.
Melissa Essential Oil blends well with Germanium, Lavender and Citrus oils. In addition to Melissa essential oil, also consider trying Bergamot or orange for a similar aroma,or Melaleuca, Oregano or Thyme for similar health benefits.
