Throughout history, Frankincense has been used to treat every disease and sickness known to man. Since it was so healing to many people, frankincense oils and resins were considered to be worth more than gold.
For over 5,000 years, Frankincense was burned in many religious temples throughout China, India, and Egypt. However, the Catholic and Jewish churches still burn frankincense incense during mass and ceremonies, as it is thought that the smoke of frankincense carries prayers to heaven.
In India, Frankincense would be used in religious and yogic practices to deepen the breath and still the mind, allowing for ease in meditation. The Egyptians would use frankincense as an offering to their gods and to purify the sick by banishing evil spirits. Egyptians also used frankincense as a main ingredient in a rejuvenating face mask, which was mostly given to the royal family.
Frankincense is known to stimulate the solar plexus chakra and instilling abilities to adapt, by enhancing inner strength and confidence.
Today, Frankincense is widely used in aromatherapy, as it has many healing properties and has the most astounding effect on the nervous system. Frankincense is used many different ways to calm and soothe the mind and body, ease aches and pains, and clear the lungs and chest.

Bath: Place 8 drops into 3 handfuls of bath salt and disperse, or add 8 drops to vodka or whole milk and disperse.
Shower: Soak for at least 3 minutes in steamy shower, then with the water off or turned away from the body, allow 5-7 drops to fall in the palm of the hand and distribute all over wet body (not face). The oil will penetrate very quickly, and the body can be rinsed again, or not.
Diffusor: Follow diffusor manufacturers instructions, but typically add about 8 drops.
Room Deodorizer: Add 15 drops per 2oz distilled water and spray as desired.
