Patchouli essential oil (Pogostemon cablin) has been popular for decades...I mean really, if you want to be "officially crunchy" it's pretty much a prerequisite to use before you can be admitted into the club. But other than covering up hippie body odor (which it does very well), it's actually used for many other things as well. Its aroma is very rich and earthy, with an herbal and balsamic scent. It's also a kind of "love it or hate it" oil, and you'll likely find people drawn to it or absolutely repulsed.
Primary Benefits
Grounding, balancing effect on emotions
Promotes a smooth, glowing complexion
Reduces the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and stretch marks
Emotional Benefits
Emotionally, patchouli essential oil is also said to connect one to their own body, helping a person release patterns of shame or "not enough-ness", and feel more self-love and acceptance towards their physical self. It does this by acting as a grounding support, helping you to reconnect with and settle into your body. In this way it compliments exercises that encourage body mindfulness, such as tai chi or yoga asanas. It can also help to relieve feelings of anxiousness or stress, the things we often feel when we begin to disassociate and feel ungrounded or unbalanced.
Complimentary Oils
Patchouli essential oil blends well with Bergamot, Clary Sage, Frankincense, Geranium, Ginger, Lavender, Lemongrass, Myrrh, and Sandalwood. In addition to Patchouli essential oil, also consider trying Frankincense, Sandalwood, Cedarwood, Wild Orange, and Lavender.
