Wisdom of the Earth Essentials

As the Blood is to your body, so is the Essence to the Plant and Tree kingdom. The very life force of the Plants and trees is captured during a process called distillation. Essential oils or Essences are highly concentrated, containing carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, nutrients, and chemicals for the protection and well-being of the Plant and Tree.

Wisdom of the Earth single essential oils “QUALITY” are cultivated from certified organic (under controlled plant population and cultivation where pesticides, insecticides, chemical fertilizers, and growth boosters are not used). Remember, organic is a relative term. For example, the toxicity of the air that the Plant or Tree breathes is not considered within the Organic Act requirements. We are concerned about the abuse of the soil that has been sprayed and saturated by all kinds of chemicals. Not all essence-producing countries like the U.S. and other industrialized countries have polluted their soil. Plants and trees that grow wild are wild and organic, which is a moot point. So-called population growth organic (tree groves) is more an attempt for faddish credibility than reality. This is not to discredit the desire to ensure that the soil where the Plants and Trees grow would meet the Organic Certification requirements in California or Europe, where pollution has been rampant.) , wild crafted (grown and collected in the wild without plant population or cultivation. It is as pure as you can get. i.e., most of your tree essences.), or Bio-Dynamic Farming (usually farming practices are above and beyond organic and kosher. Considered by many the closest humans have come to harmonizing planting and harvesting with Mother Earth, yet they are not genuinely WILD or WILD CRAFTED. Biodynamic farming is done according to astrology “sun, moon, stars, etc.” which is the most ancient practice and actual science.), Pure and Natural (When the process of the preparation and distillation is complete, the essence is free from additives, subtractives, or blends. No pesticides or insecticides are used.). In addition, many essences are Kosher Certified by the Chief Rabbinate of Israel. EVERY essence is hand-poured with loving intent, further enhancing its high vibrational energy.

Hydrolats

Hydrolats are also known as floral waters, hydrosols, and Hydrolates.
Hydrolats are produced by water or steam distillation of the botanical matter and contain most of the hydrophilic (water soluble) molecules from the botanical material that were not distilled into the essential oil. It is noteworthy to mention that many artisan distillers produce hydrolats from plant, flower, or tree materials exclusively to create a more potent alchemical hydrolat essence experience!

Shopping tip: Hydrolat (120ml size w/spray nozel). 1 - 8 hydrolat bottles can fit into a medium size priority box. Ordering even one 120 size will change your box size and shipping cost, so I encourage you to take advantage of this helpful tip. This is not an exact science on shipping rates; however, it is very close to perfection. I wish you a more efficient shopping experience. I hope this shopping/shipping tip was helpful.

There are various Hydrolat uses, so below I am sharing a few Hydrolat uses along with MY favorite Hydrolat favorites. There are many uses you may not have considered as of yet in the hydrolat realm; however, once you try them, I know you will come to a great love and appreciation of their diverse, beneficial nature.

Ideally, hydrolats should be stored in the refrigerator. If you do not have room in the refrigerator, I suggest a dark and cooler to moderate temperature for storage. The hydrolat I use daily as a facial toner is stored in my medicine cabinet. A hydrolat's shelf life would depend on various factors like botanical source and pH, storage, and care before it greets you and on the general average (a minimum of eight months to a maximum of two years). Wisdom of the Earth hydrolats has received the proper care from its origins to the farmer, to the distiller, and every “Heart and Hand” it has journeyed its way to you! Providing the suggested storage on your end should enliven the maximum life span; however, I use mine typically within one to three months.

Hydrolat uses on the Skin:

As a facial toner, I use Neroli, Helichrysum, and Rose.

Aid for burns, including sunburns – Helichrysum and lavender.

As a body/mind coolant, I use Neroli, peppermint, sweet grass, lavender, and helichrysum.

Aid for skin rashes – Yarrow blue and lavender.

Hydrolat uses for Animals (soothing for animals and being a touch milder than essential oils may be the perfect choice for our sensitive furry companions):

Pest repellent – peppermint, spearmint, lavender, and sweet grass.

Skin rashes, inflammation, and itchy areas – Lavender, helichrysum, frankincense, yarrow blue, and Rose.

Anxiety – Lavender, rose, neroli, frankincense, and ponderosa pine.

Hydrolat uses for Home:

Wiping down counters – LAVENDER, sweet grass, peppermint, and spearmint.

Linen Mister (closet, bed sheets, etc.) – Depends on my mood! Inquire Imagination!

Air Freshener (home/office/massage room) – Lavender, sweet grass, Rose and neroli.

Living in the arid regions of the Southwest, I could not live without using Helichrysum and Yarrow blue hydrolat in the spring and summer (I spray with my eyes open, allowing the mist to revitalize and comfort my dry or allergic eyes). Then there is my Pitta constitution that is aggravated by summer heat, making Neroli and Peppermint my other top users as mood regulators and hydrocoolants!

Nut and Seed oils

Nut and seed oils are also known as fixed, carrier, base, or vegetable oils, which are non-volatile oils derived from plant materials. All nut and seed oils contain a significant amount of essential fatty acids. There are four types of essential fatty acids: Omega-3, Omega-6, Omega-9, and Omega-7. Essential fatty acids are beneficial in the healthy formation of cell membranes, blood, and arteries, imperative for the well-being of the central nervous system, and aid hormonal production and general inflammation. They support healthy skin and hair by preventing dryness, therefore supporting a more vibrant, healthy, and youthful appearance.

Fixed oils should be stored in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight.
