HIMALAYAN CEDAR WOOD: This most lovely and sacred cedar of all is from the high country of Nepal. This is the cedar oil used for temple incense by Tibetan Buddhists. It is rich, sweet, woody and almost balsamic. It has a gentle and complex aroma that works well in blends without overpowering the other fragrances to which it is added. As a single scent it is also gentle, subtle, and very high energy. Cedar is recognized for its calming, purifying effects, and its benefits to the skin and underlying tissue. Possibly related to its use as a spiritually grounding scent, the oil may stimulate the pineal gland which releases melatonin as well as human growth hormone. The limbic system (center of emotions) is also stimulated by the high sesquiterpene content. Cedar oil is considered fortifying and strengthening, being noted as a tonifier of the kidneys, spleen and pancreas. It is included in blends to enhance one’s overall energy and to support adrenal function.
