Distilled from the seeds of Myristica fragrans, nutmeg essential oil is truly an expression of the greatly loved holiday spice. A very stimulating oil, more intense exposure has a reputation for prompting vivid dreams and can potentially be overstimulating if not carefully used.
Its spicy and sweet aroma brings with it the warming qualities known so well to us in the winter months. Just as the scent of spices permeating from fresh, holiday baking triggers a sense of comfort and happiness, nutmeg oil adds just that bit of coziness to a blend. Help loosen “stuck” energies and nervous attachments that can impede your ability to thrive. Embrace what life and the people in it have to offer. Just a bit of nutmeg oil can appeal to emotional stagnation and set an aching heart on its path to wholeness.
Nutmeg pairs beautifully with other spice oils and sweet, juicy citrus oils that serve to create a classic sense of hearth and home. Add a touch of vanilla or our cocoa absolute to round out any spicy blend containing nutmeg!

While we’ve made this clear that we are selling this essential oil to use in your diffuser, your inhaler, or topically (diluted), it is a pure essential oil and can be used as such. With all essential oils:
Keep away from children.
Oral Safety is only given because many people have been told to take oils internally. Because several people look to us for safety advice, we feel obligated to offer those safety statements, although we do not believe anyone should be ingesting essential oils without being guided by an expert. Experts will take your medical history into account before they suggest oils for you to ingest, diffuse, or use topically.
