Yarrow Essential Oil (Achillea millefolia)
April 13, 2010 | Posted in: Herbs & Essential Oils
Yarrow is a gentle and effective essential oil. It’s deep blue color is indicative of azulene content, which is a powerful natural anti-inflammatory.
It is a blood cleanser that helps the liver filter toxins and lowers blood pressure. It helps cleanse the liver from heavy metals, petrochemical miasm, and radiation damage.
A great way to use this oil is to apply it (diluted) to the solar plexus and liver area, coating it lightly.
The oil will begin to penetrate at once when applied. Soak a towel in hot water, wring it out, and place it on top of the abdomen where the oil was applied. Cover with another dry towel, and sit or lie still for 10 to 20 minutes while the warmth and moisture drive the essential oil into the body tissues.
This oil can also be used in the bath to detoxify the blood. A few drops will go a long way, so use sparingly. You will feel relaxed and ready to sleep when you come out of the bath!
