Cypress

(Cupressus sempervirens)
Warm, fresh spicy wood, excellent skin toner, refreshing, invigorating

Cypress was highly valued as a medicine and as an incense by ancient civilizations and it is still used as a purification incense by the Tibetans.  It benefits the urinary system and is considered useful where there is excessive loss of fluid, such as heavy perspiration or menstrual loss and diarrhea: "The cones are ...very drying and binding, good to stop fluxes of all kinds. (Culper, N. Complete Herbal, p.110)The Chinese consider the nuts very nutritious, beneficial for the liver and respiratory system and to check profuse perspiration.
You try to stay healthy, but the daily specters of pressure and stress erode your body's ability to ward off sickness.  Consistently high levels of stress can weaken your body's resilience by fatiguing your immune system, leaving your body vulnerable to disease-causing contaminants.  With the essential oil Cypress, you can take a break from the stress that plagues you.  Balancing to the mind and stimulating to the body, Cypress can delight your tactile and olfactory systems and leave you feeling mentally and physically refreshed.  Fighting stress can be the most uplifting and relaxing "fight" of your life -- enjoy it with Cypress.
