The Profile
Rosemary is an aromatic evergreen shrub whose name comes from the Latin ros marinus ("dew of the sea"). It has been sacred since antiquity—Greek scholars wore garlands of it to aid their memory during exams, and it has long symbolized remembrance and loyalty. The aroma is powerfully fresh, herbaceous, and woody with a distinct camphorous "kick." Unlike many oils that vary by region alone, Rosemary is famous for its chemotypes (different chemical personalities based on growing conditions):
· ct. Cineole: The best for respiratory clearing.
· ct. Camphor: The strongest for muscle pain and circulation.
· ct. Verbenone: The gentlest, preferred for skin and hair care.
Therapeutic Actions
Analgesic, Antidepressant, Antirheumatic, Antiseptic, Antispasmodic, Cicatrizant, Cordial, Digestive, Diuretic, Emmenagogue, Hepatic, Hypertensive, Nervine, Stimulant (circulatory/adrenal), Sudorific, Tonic.
Usage & Benefits
· Skin & Hair: Famous for hair growth and treating dandruff. It stimulates the scalp and is as effective as some pharmaceutical hair growth treatments. It’s also great for balancing oily skin and acne.
· Brain & Memory: Known as the "Herb of Remembrance." Inhaling Rosemary has been scientifically shown to improve memory retention, focus, and mental speed. It is the ultimate study aid.
· Respiratory: Excellent for asthma, bronchitis, and sinus congestion. It helps break up mucus and "opens" the airways.
· Circulatory/Muscular: Arthritis, gout, and muscular aches. It is a "hot" oil that increases local circulation, making it perfect for cold hands and feet or stiff joints.
· Digestive: Helps with flatulence and liver congestion. It is a general tonic for the gallbladder and stomach.
Emotional Benefit
Rosemary is the "Oil of Knowledge and Transition." It clears the "cobwebs" of the mind and helps us process new information. It is perfect for those who feel mentally stagnant, confused, or unable to focus. It provides the "light" needed to see through mental fog and the courage to move forward into new phases of life.
The "At Home" Remedies
1. The "Scholar’s Diffuser": Diffuse 3 drops of Rosemary and 3 drops of Lemon while studying or working. It keeps the mind alert and helps the brain "file" information more effectively.
2. Scalp Stimulating Rinse: Add 2 drops of Rosemary to your shampoo. Massage into the scalp for 2 minutes before rinsing to encourage hair thickness and shine.
3. The "Wake Up" Shower: Put 1 drop of Rosemary on the floor of the shower away from the drain. The steam creates an invigorating "mental caffeine" hit to start the day.
