Product description: Known as “Wood of the gods” and seen as a symbol of strength and abundance, Himalayan Cedarwood has held a position of reverence and played a prominent role for many ancient civilizations from Native American to Greek, Roman, Indian, Tibetan to Egyptian throughout history and is believed to be one of the earliest extracts ever used by man, even mentioned multiple times in the Bible.

 

Essential oils produced from either of the only 2 true Cedarwoods i.e. Cedrus deodora (Himalayan Cedarwood) and its botanical cousin Cedrus atlantica (Atlas Cedarwood) typically available on the market are a must have for natural healing enthusiasts as they are considered superior and can be used interchangeably. Other than minor difference in the nuances of their aroma they are equally amazing and similar in their abundance of healing benefits. They are both widely recommended and prefered for use in holistic healing due to their abundance of aromatherapy benefits and because they are safer to use especially with children.

 

Some Junipers e.g. Juniperus ashei (Texas Cedarwood) and Juniperus virginiana (Virginia Cedarwood) are mistakenly referred to and used as Cedarwood as well even though they are not botanically the same nor are they as beneficial in aromatherapy.
