Neshama comes from the Hebrew word meaning “soul” and was created to help remind us of who we truly are and how we are all connected to each other and the world around us. Historically, both plants and essential oils have been celebrated for the benefits and uses they provide to mankind, demonstrating the connection between man and nature. Many of the essential oils chosen for the Neshama Soulful Blend were considered holy and mentioned in ancient scripture, used then and now to help us connect with a higher sense of self. Included in this inspiring blend are some of our most prized and precious CPTG™ essential oils, including Frankincense, Lavender, Cedarwood, Cypress, Myrrh, Spikenard, Wild Orange, Cassia, and Cinnamon. In times of particular difficulty, applying Neshama may act as a reminder that your soul has a deep connection to the world around you and that healing will come in time.
One of the most prized and precious oils due to its rich aroma, Frankincense is often referred to as the “king” of essential oils. Centuries ago, ancient Egyptians used Frankincense resin for everything from perfume to salves for the skin. Its soothing and beautifying properties may be rejuvenating to skin and may help reduce the appearance of imperfections when applied topically.
With its distinct aroma and countless applications, Lavender has become one of the most popular essential oils. Anciently, the Romans and Egyptians would use Lavender for bathing. Since that time, many have discovered the myriad of other benefits it holds. Lavender is widely used in cosmetics and perfumes for its ability to promote healthy, clean skin. Additionally, its calming properties are often used to relax the body and improve mood. Its versatile benefits make Lavender an oil to have on-hand everywhere you go.
Derived from the branches of the tall evergreen tree, Cypress essential oil has a clean aroma that’s energising and refreshing. Cypress is frequently used in spas and by massage therapists because of its many benefits to the skin. It has a grounding, yet stimulating effect on the emotions, making it a popular oil for massages. The fresh, woody aroma of Cypress promotes relaxation.
If Frankincense is the “King of oils”, then Myrrh is certainly in the royal court. Its use to improve the appearance of skin makes it a key ingredient in dōTERRA Salubelle and many other skin care products. Used historically in meditation and embalming, Myrrh continues to be a precious and important oil in any essential oil collection.
A flowering plant of the Valerian family, Spikenard is native to high altitudes in the sub-alpine and alpine regions of the Himalayan mountains. One of the greatest benefits of Spikenard essential oil is its ability to promote feelings of relaxation and calmness, making it a popular choice for aromatherapy and meditation. Spikenard has been valued for centuries, traditionally used to anoint people of high honour and in the Ayurvedic health practices of India. Today, the oil is commonly used in perfumes and relaxing massages for its woody, musty scent. Spikenard is also known to promote clean, healthy skin.
Cold pressed from the peel, Wild Orange is one of dōTERRA’s top selling essential oils due to its energising aroma and multiple benefits. High in monoterpenes, Wild Orange possesses soothing qualities for the skin that makes it a pleasant addition to beauty products.
The sweet, spicy aroma of cinnamon bark is loved around the world. Cinnamon is derived from a tropical evergreen tree that grows up to 45 feet high and has highly fragrant bark, leaves, and flowers. Cinnamon Bark has a long history of culinary uses, but its essential oil is surprisingly versatile. Cinnamon is frequently used in mouth rinses and gums.
