Dalmatian Yugoslavia (Salvia officinalis) |
|
|
|
|
|
An evergreen shrubby herb that grows up to 80 cms tall and a mass of deep blue
or violet flowers.
A Fresh, yet spicy herbal aroma is soothing and calming.
Sage is found around the
world in dry, hot areas. Sage was popular with the
Chinese and Romans. The Chinese believed it cured
sterility and the Romans thought it cured almost every
thing. The Romans knew it as "herba sacra" or
the sacred herb. The root word means "to save or to
heal". It was popular as a nerve tonic in the
Middle Ages and was used as a tea in England.
Sage is particularly
good for mouth and throat infections, wounds and
headaches. Sage can be put
in gargles and mouthwashes, (do not swallow) and
should be diluted in water to a very low
concentration.
As massage oil, use it for men with very
tense muscles. Sage
is very warming and penetrating to the muscles and has a
softening effect on the muscles, which have been
over-developed.
It will induce menstruation, assist in
childbirth, has a normalizing effect for late or scanty
periods and helps during the onset of menopause. It
imitates estrogen and helps regulate menstruation.

Tangerine
USA (Citrus reticulata var. tangerine) |
|
|
|
|
|
The tangerine tree, Citrus
Reticulata, grows in California, Florida and Texas and
is actually the American variety of the East Asian
Mandarin.

say Tangerine and Mandarin may be used interchangeably,
but others find their scents very different, saying that
Mandarin seems a bit tarter, closer to a blend of orange
and grapefruit. Tangerine Oil is pressed from the peel
of the ripe fruit.
Tangerine is a delightful
alternative to Orange Oil, a bit lighter and much
sweeter when used in a blend.
In
France it is regarded as a safe children's remedy for
minor stomach ailments.
The wonderful light and
sweet citrus scent of Tangerine oil works wonders during
gloomy periods. It
is uplifting like the other citrus oils and is also
great at strengthening as well as calming the nervous
system, which makes it helpful for stressful, nervous
states.
It
may be helpful for muscle cramps and cellulite.
