The scent of Bergamot essential oil is similar to a sweet, light orange peel oil and has an uplifting aroma that can help with anxiety, depression and grief. Bergamot can be very beneficial when you are feeling run down and exhausted from stress. It was commonly used by the Romans, in combination with chamomile, to help with bladder infections.
Essential oils should not be applied directly to the skin and are usually mixed with a base or carrier oil like sweet almond, grapeseed, jojoba or avocado. Add a few drops to your bath water, or you can use this oil for a pleasant fragrance in an oil burner or diffuser.
Always consult an authorised practitioner when using essential oil as a health remedy
