Botanical Name: Hyssopus officinalis Botanical Family: Lamiaceae (Labiatae)
· Extraction Method: Steam Distillation
· Part Used: Flowering Tops and Leaves
· Aroma Note: Top to Middle
Hyssop is a sacred herb with a history spanning thousands of years, famously mentioned in the Bible for its purifying properties ("Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean"). It is a hardy, woody perennial native to the Mediterranean. The oil has a powerful, fresh, camphoraceous, and slightly sweet aroma with a warm, spicy undertone. While it belongs to the same family as Lavender and Mint, Hyssop is much more chemically complex and "piercing." It is a classic "purifying" oil, used throughout history to cleanse sacred spaces and the human body alike.
Antiseptic, Antispasmodic, Antiviral, Astringent, Carminative, Cicatrisant, Digestive, Diuretic, Emmenagogue, Expectorant, Febrifuge, Nervine, Tonic.
· Respiratory: The "King of Lung Oils." Hyssop is unsurpassed for treating deep-seated chest infections, bronchitis, and asthma. It is a potent expectorant that helps liquefy thick mucus and eases spasmodic coughing.
· Nervous System: A wonderful tonic for nervous exhaustion and anxiety. It helps to strengthen the "nerves" during times of grief or intense emotional pressure.
· Skin: Used to speed the healing of bruises (as it helps disperse congealed blood) and to treat minor wounds and dermatitis.
· Circulatory: It helps to regulate blood pressure (particularly low blood pressure) and improves overall circulation, providing warmth to those who feel chronically cold.
· Digestive: Eases stomach cramps and helps the body expel gas and toxins, stimulating the entire digestive tract.
Hyssop is the "Oil of Divine Purification." It is for those who feel emotionally "dirty" or weighed down by guilt, shame, or past regrets. It helps to clear the psychic space around a person, acting as a shield against the negativity of others. Hyssop provides the clarity and courage to release old emotional burdens, allowing for a fresh start and a "clean" spirit.
1. The "Bruise Be-Gone" Dab: Mix 1 drop of Hyssop with a teaspoon of Witch Hazel. Gently dab onto a fresh bruise to encourage the blood to disperse and reduce swelling.
2. The "Congestion Clearing" Steam: Add 1 drop of Hyssop and 1 drop of Lemon to a bowl of hot water. Inhale the steam to help loosen a dry, stubborn cough.
3. The "Purifying" Bath: Mix 2 drops of Hyssop and 3 drops of Lavender with a carrier oil before adding to a bath after a stressful day to "wash away" negative energy.
