Manuka

Description

Manuka essential oil is steam distilled from the leaves, stems, bark, and gum of the Manuka tree. Aromatically, Manuka has a rich, spicy, sweet, and herbaceous scent.
"Revered by the Maori people for its many invigorating properties, Manuka has been used for centuries in New Zealand for its plethora of health benefits. dōTERRA’s New Zealand Manuka Essential Oil is a pure steam distillation of the potent aromatic compounds found in the flowers, leaves, and stems of the Manuka tree. Manuka essential oil has a rich, spicy, herbaceous fragrance that can promote feelings of rest and relaxation. Use Manuka essential oil to ground and center energies while shielding yourself in preparation for deep meditation. Manuka essential oil can also be diffused aromatically to help cleanse and freshen the air. Applied topically, Manuka promotes the appearance of smooth, healthy looking skin." Manuka essential oil can only be purchased in a few dōTERRA markets. The United States is not one of them.

Emotional Aspects

Manuka is regarded as the “Oil of Being Upheld.” It may assist one in feeling soothed, comforted, healing, loved, cared for, upheld, known by the Divine, grateful, transcendence, safe, and shielded. Manuka may also assist one in releasing feelings of wounded, abandoned, forsaken, suffering, disconnected, unsafe, powerless, burdened, and grieving.

Sourcing Information

One of the main reasons I chose dōTERRA is because of where and how they source their essential oils. dōTERRA believes that plants produce the best chemical properties when they are grown and harvested in their native habitat. ​
dōTERRA sources Manuka from New Zealand. Each batch of essential oils goes through the following battery of tests to ensure that they are pure, potent, effective oils worthy of the dōTERRA name:

• Organoleptic testing
• Microbial testing
• Gas chromatography
• Mass spectrometry
• Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR)
• Chirality testing
• Isotopic analysis
• Heavy metal testing

You can access the GC/MS reports of each batch of dōTERRA essential oils. These tests are done by an independent third party lab. Your unique Quality ID is located on the bottom of your bottle. Enter that ID at sourcetoyou.com to access the reports.
