Within aromatherapy, lavender is considered the most versatile oil. Moreover, also the most friendly oil. As in: you can’t do much wrong with it. Lavender oil is a very safe oil. Dosage: max. 16% in adults. You cannot quickly overdose this oil. Incidentally, you get a headache with overdose.
This oil also does what it takes. It can relax or energize you. Exactly what you need at the moment.
If you are unsure which oil to use, use lavender.
Lavender is healing (undiluted) for blisters, cuts, scrapes and burns, obviously do not use for large wounds! It disinfects, reduces pain and allows the skin to heal much more beautifully.

Encourages to connect with the world, spread your unique gifts and light. This oil relieves feelings of being very vulnerable, withdrawn and fear. It helps grow spiritually by helping you integrate your experiences, bringing increased awareness and perspective.
Balances the high and low chakras. Positive, calming and energizing effect on all chakras. Strong affinity with the solar plexus chakra. (3rd chakra). This has a calming effect on strong emotions. Can support widening of the heart chakra. And helps to express what you feel and think (throat chakra). But even more lavender works on the crown chakra.

It also helps us integrate our spirituality into our daily life. Cleans spaces of negative energy. Helps to see that even small things are valuable and “sacred”.
