Why Cedarwood is a Popular Essential Oil for Wellness

Cedarwood oil owes much of its effectiveness to a compound called cedrol, a natural insect repellent and calming agent. From Ancient Egypt to Ayurvedic spice storage to Roman texts by Pliny the Elder, cedarwood has been praised for centuries for both practical and therapeutic uses. Today, you’ll still find cedarwood in everything from natural cleaning products to skincare and sleep blends, making it an especially sustainable essential oil to use around the home.

The Key Benefits of Cedarwood Essential Oil in Our Blends

Encourages Deep Relaxation and Sleep

Cedarwood oil is known to have sedative effects that can be a great benefit if you’re stressed or struggling with getting enough restful sleep. That’s why it’s a star in our Aroma Sleep blend. Cedarwood is designed to help ease stress and promote deeper, more restorative sleep.

Helps Clear and Calm the Skin

Cedarwood essential oil has many benefits. With astringent, antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties, cedarwood can be used topically (when diluted) to help soothe irritated skin. It’s particularly helpful for conditions like eczema, acne, or psoriasis. It also makes for a great addition to homemade balms for minor cuts or inflammation.

Promotes Focus and Emotional Balance

Cedarwood’s grounding aroma helps promote calm and mental clarity, making it an excellent oil to diffuse during meditation, journaling, or focused work sessions. You’ll find it in our Calm & Unwind blend for just that reason.

How to Use Cedarwood Blends for Maximum Benefit

Cedarwood essential oil is as versatile as it is calming. The most popular way to enjoy its benefits is through diffusion—simply add a few drops to your diffusers or vaporiser to create a grounding, serene atmosphere at home or in your sleep space.

Cedarwood oil can also be added to a carrier oil and used for a relaxing massage, or if diluted correctly, can be applied topically. Please note that cedarwood should be heavily diluted and used sparingly or avoided during pregnancy.
