It may improve the appearance of chapped skin or dry skin; and is an ideal addition to your favorite skin care products.

Patchouli Essential Oil is steam distilled from the leaves and flowers of the plant and is native to Asia.

Most of us remember patchouli as the incense and aroma of the 1960s and 1970s.

My favorite blend that contains patchouli oil is Peace & Calming essential oil blend. It is fantastic oil to reduce stress and nervous tension and to help you sleep better when an occassion may find you restless. I personally use it every day and night, and at the barn for the horses.

I designed this section so you could use it as a fun and easy reference guide. It will tell you how to use your oil and what to use it for. It will also provide you with some fun tips, testimonials and oil trivia!

As I receive new tips and testimonials they will be added to the page, so check back often!

It is always best to purchase your essential oil by common name and genus species so you know exactly what you are getting!

What is Nan's Mental (Mindset), Emotional and Spiritual Interpretation of this Oil?

This oil has been used to relax the mind and clarify thoughts for hundreds of years.

It is primarily used to align the heart chakra with the root and sacral chakras. It does this by releasing obsessions, insecurities and jealousies and enhancing our desire to live a fuller life.

It also ground the body and asks us to stay in the present moment rather than stressing about things that are beyond our control.

What Chakra is Affected? The heart and crown chakras expand.

How Do I Use It?

Use NEAT (undiluted). Then,

  • Apply several drops (2-4) on location
  • Apply to chakras
  • Directly inhale
  • Diffuse

Can this Oil be Used for Pets? Yes, it has natural deodorizing qualities and is supports healthy skin. It is in Animal Scents Ointment a nourishing and natural ointment that I use for on all the animals.

Patchouli oil is also in two of my favorite blends Peace and Calming and Magnify Your Purpose. I use Peace & Calming blend at the barn everyday for the horses. It is excellent to calm animals and everyone in the vicinity! lol

Note About Animal Use: Certain oils can be very toxic to cats. Pine and citrus products and oils in particular that are not therapeutic grade. Please consult your vet if you are not sure about applying any essential oil to your pet.

What are the Safety Precautions? Only therapeutic grade essential oils should be used for best results. Because it is approved as a Food Additive (FA) and Flavoring Agent (FL) by the FDA, Patchouli Oil is readily available on the market in many different qualities.

It is Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS). Although it may be used as a dietary supplement, it is advised not to use it in this manner for children under 6 years of age.
