Green mandarin essential oil is one of the favorites of children. It has a fresh, bright aroma that calms ADD and ADHD, and promotes inner peace and happy energy.
Mandarin oil can be pressed from fully ripe fruit peels, yellow peels or green peels such as this one. The green is by far my favorite, as it seems brighter and lighter than the riper ones.
Green mandarin is good for detoxifying, and especially for stimulating the kidneys to balance water and release excess (diuretic property). It has numerous healing applications, including skin application for treating scars and stretch marks, acne, and other skin conditions.
It is helpful for balancing the solar plexus and heart chakras, and is very stabilizing to the energy field.
