Spotlight on “Copaiba” essential oil today.
This Brazilian Beauty is extracted from copaiba trees in the Amazon rainforest. The essential oil is steam distilled from the copaiba oleoresin, a substance made up of resin and essential oils. The collection process of the oleoresin is unique among essential oils—it is tapped from the tree in a similar way to how maple trees are for their syrup. The oleoresin is then steam distilled to produce the essential oil.
Many people use this oil for pain management and inflammation support however Copaiba has numerous benefits and it’s been used for centuries...
💧Whole-body wellness:
Most of the body can benefit from Copaiba—it supports the cardiovascular, digestive, nervous, and immune system.* South Americans have used copaiba resin for the health of many of these same systems. To take advantage of these benefits, add one to two drops to water, juice, or make your own tea using warm water and honey.
💧Calming anxious feelings:
When you’re facing a stressful day ahead or feeling worried, diffusing Copaiba’s woody scent can help calm any anxious feelings you may be experiencing.
💧Protect & support your cells:
Take one to two drops in a veggie capsule to take advantage of the antioxidants—the substance that stops potential damage to your cells from oxidation.*
💧Skin:
Copaiba has the capability of keeping your skin clear and clean while reducing the appearance of blemishes. Add Copaiba to your toner and apply to your face in upward circular motions. Or add a drop to your moisturiser.
💧Purefume:
Use as a personal fragrance. Oils that blend well with Copaiba include Roman Chamomile, Cedarwood, Sandalwood, Frankincense, or Ylang Ylang. Using any of these oils that appeal to you, create your own signature scent in a roller bottle, and then fill the rest of the bottle with Fractionated Coconut Oil.
💧Unwind:
Diffuse it in your room and focus on the scent to fall into a meditative state. Or, you can also use in a calming bath by adding two to three drops to body wash before mixing it in the water.
Personally, I love Copaiba for sleep and in the bath (especially with a little coconut milk and oil). My sister was using Copaiba with Frankincense during pregnancy across her chest where she was suffering with costochondritis, to help ease her pain & inflammation.
