What does Basil do for the body?

These are just a few of the benefits of using Basil physically:

  • Ear support: Massage 2-3 drops of doTERRA Basil around your ear if you have ear pain or aching. For a child, combine 1 drop each Basil, Tea Tree and Lavender and massage that combination around the ear (avoiding the actual ear canal).

  • Easing uncomfortable joints, muscles and achees and pains: Massage 5-7 drops of Basil oil directly into achy joints or muscles. For best results, follow immediately with a dollop of doTERRA Deep Blue muscle rub and massage into the skin.

  • Helps with loss of smell: Put 1 drop on your fingertip and massage into the bridge of your nose 2-3x daily to help with sense of smell.

  • Pre-menstrual Support: massage into abdominal area in the few days prior to your period starting. This can help get things moving and flowing naturally.

  • Relieve itchiness from bites and stings: Apply 1 drop Basil on top of bites and stings.

  • Relieve stress-induced head tension: Massage 3-5 drops of Basil into your neck and shoulders. For best results, follow this by massaging Deep Blue muscle rub over top.

  • Helps with feelings of nausea: Put a drop of Basil oil under your tongue when you feel head tension coming on.

What does Basil essential oil do for emotional and spiritual wellbeing?

Basil is helpful for burnout, fatigue, sadness, frustration, hopelessness and lethargy.

  • Truth Serum: Basil unveils parts of ourselves we have been ignoring. Basil helps us to be brave, face the truth, illuminate the darkness and act with courage. Pour 3 drops of Basil into your palm, rub your hands together and deeply inhale. You can also massage Basil directly into your heart area.

  • To rejuvenate your spirit: Diffuse Basil and allow the Basil to permeate the room for at least 30 minutes. Feel yourself dropping your guard and becoming more open and honest. Feel yourself becoming clearer mentally and emotionally.

  • To discover your own self-sabotaging patterns: Diffuse Basil. Follow with Marjoram and Litsea in the diffuser to shift the underpinnings of your emotional energy and ease your emotional flow. This is very useful if you’ve been stuck energetically for some time.

  • For energetic protection: Apply Basil to your 3rd eye (middle of the forehead, above the bridge of your nose).
