The Refreshing Scent Of Lime
The scent of lime is so refreshing! That citrusy zing might make you think of your favorite foods or a night out with a cocktail in hand. Light, sour and full of personality, lime is a good friend to have around. The beauty of lime is it makes a bright splash in the culinary world and a lovely addition to the wellness world as an essential oil.
The essential oil of lime is extracted through expression of the rind and then cold pressed to release the oil.
Lime, like a lot of citrus scents, is energizing and uplifting. Just smelling lime oil can make you feel a little more alert and upbeat. It’s one of the sharper smelling citrus-based essential oils, and has a beautiful way of cutting through as well as working with other oils it’s blended with. Despite lime helping to energize you, it can have a calming effect as well.
Breatherapy uses lime essential oil in our Grounding tab for those times when you want to harness the feeling of calm without feeling sleepy or low energy. We suggest using Grounding before giving a presentation or participating in a performance. See if it helps you feel a little more grounded and both calm but alert.
