doTERRA Cardamom Essential Oil
A close relative to Ginger, Cardamom is known as an expensive cooking spice and for being beneficial to the digestive system in a variety of ways. Cardamom is commonly used to help soothe occasional stomach discomfort. Its distinct scent can promote a positive mood. Cardamom also has profound effects on the respiratory system due to its high 1,8-cineole content, which promotes clear breathing and respiratory health.
Native to Southeast Asia, Cardamom is added to traditional Indian sweets and teas for its cool, minty aroma and flavor. Cardamom essential oil is extracted from Cardamom seeds grown in Guatemala. Through a collaborative and responsible sourcing arrangement, we are able to have a significant impact on the lives of local partners, ensuring that these farming communities enjoy improved livelihoods.

Emotions & Energetics of Essential Oils - CARDAMOM - The Oil of Objectivity
Worry is not the only way to interact with your circumstances! Cardamom is often used for problems around anger or frustration. It is a restoring oil, which is dubbed the "reggae" oil, which helps you to connect with the feeling that everything is gonna be alright, magnifying feelings of peace, bliss, balance, mental clarity and helps you step back from a situation to see it more clearly from a less attached perspective. Use this oil to break down intense emotions of anger or frustration by redirecting the energy to the Solar Plexus Chakra, which is also called the Center of Responsibility. This way, Cardamom helps to let go of emotional distortions, turns it into clear objective thinking and guides you to take ownership of your feelings.
