Enjoy the benefits of doTERRA Sandalwood essential oil
Indian sandalwood is highly valued as incense and used for meditation worldwide to enhance mindfulness. Like Hawaiian sandalwood, Indian sandalwood promotes a sense of well-being and has beneficial effects on mood. Combine sandalwood with other essential oils, such as lavender and sweet orange, and massage into the skin to encourage a feeling of calm and relaxation.
Sandalwood trees are known for producing a highly aromatic wood that can retain its fragrance for decades. Sandalwood oil comes from the heartwood, the oldest and most central part of the tree. The heartwood is typically darker and harder and is steam-distilled to produce the rich and captivating sandalwood essential oil.
