I Receive Upliftment | Lemon

Affirmation I AM Inspired

When life gives you lemons, use the essential oils too. This might be one of the lightest and brightest aromas we know. The versatile lemon essential oil is a great energy cleanser. It not only purifies your space in the metaphysical sense, it also literally purifies with its antimicrobial properties. It’s the perfect essential oil that enables a fresh start.

Properties

Experience

Diffusion: Add 10-15 drops in the diffuser of your choice.

Internal: Add 1-2 drops of lemon essential oil to a glass of water to cleanse and detox.

Skincare: Add 4-5 drops of lemon essential oil with a tablespoon of carrier oil, or your favorite moisturizer/night cream. Apply this oil only at night, because lemon essential oil is photosensitive.

Cleansing Spray: 12 drops of lemon essential oil to 1 quart purified or spring water. Blend in a spray bottle, and shake well before using.

Immunity-Boosting Massage: Add 1 tbsp of carrier oil (such as Almond oil), with 9 drops of lemon oil. This blend boosts circulation, supports healthy blood pressure, and uplifts the mood. Free radicals in our bodies can cause inflammation. Lemons have a very high bioflavonoid content, which helps destroy harmful free radicals.

Special Note

Some citrus essential oils are phototoxic. This means they can cause a skin reaction if you use them on your skin and then go out in the sun. Lemon essential oil has a low risk of photoxicity, but you should still exercise caution if you plan on going outside after using it on your skin.
