The commiphora myrrha shrub can grow up to 30 feet tall, and has been used for thousands of years for its healing properties. Harvesters make cuts in the trunk of Egyptian myrrh to stimulate production of a thick, red resin, which is then steam-distilled to make our essential oil.
Common Uses:
Myrrh can enhance spirituality and can aid meditation and healing. Diffuse for spiritual grounding or apply topically in 5% dilution to damaged skin.
Myrrh essential oil can have a slightly thick consistency so we would recommend placing the bottle in a hot water bath for easier use.
Aromatic Scent:
Myrrh Essential Oil has a warm, rich, spicy balsamic odor.
Cautions:
Myrrh Essential Oil can be possibly toxic in high concentrations, and should not be used during pregnancy.
