Description: The aroma of this unique variety of eucalyptus is soft and sweet with some spicy, herbal undertones and gentle camphorous qualities that refresh and inspire. This variety is useful for soothing a cough and assisting with clearing respiratory infections (especially with the French inhalation method!). It can be useful for mouth infections and for pain or inflammation within the muscles and/or tendons as well. This soft masala variety of eucalyptus feels more earthy and grounding than some of the other varieties and opens up with complexity even more once you apply it to the skin. It can be a useful remedy for weaving our passions pack into our lives and finding a healthy reciprocity in the process. As inspiration flows, play with possibilities as you create a life of joy and balance. The eucalyptus family in general supports the lungs and immune system, and they all contain anti-bacterial, anti-septic, anti-viral, analgesic and mucous clearing qualities. They cultivate optimism, freedom, possibility and mental clarity.
