The Many Uses of Essential Oils
If you’ve been following my channel for a while, you’ve likely come to understand that essential oils are a trifecta of healing for the body, mind, and spirit. This is due to their multifaceted properties and versatile actions. As a result, there are so many powerful ways they can fit into a healing and wellness practice to help us reach our goals.
For example, just in the past few clinical tips, I have explored with you how these aromatic drops can:
- benefit our mental health and balance our stress response
- enhance our brain and cognitive health
- aid us in healing from trauma
- support us in building stronger, more nurturing relationships with self and others
There is so much to say about these amazing plant secondary metabolites, sometimes I get overwhelmed! I want to spew out all their “hidden talents” so that you can get just as excited about them as I am. Alas, even in just one area of wellness, that would be an impossible task.
Well, what if I told you that I actually had the chance to try to accomplish this feat?
Recently, I was honored to be interviewed by Dr. Kate Kresge on The Root Cause Medicine Podcast to discuss “The Hidden Benefits of Essential Oils.”
During the show:
- I explored some misconceptions about essential oils
- shared compelling research and science on their many benefits
- highlighted their uses in medicine
- reviewed some of their safe applications
- offered some clinical and consumer tips
So, today’s video is a preview of what you will learn if you tune-in to the episode.
Essential Oils Topics Include:
1. Why essential oils are powerful medicinal tools.
2. The therapeutic and healing benefits of essential oils for various health conditions, including for:
- mental health
- hormone balance
- immune boosting, acting as anti-infectious agents that are microbiome-loving
- gastrointestinal issues
- overall environmental and wellness support
3. How essential oils can be used as natural cleaning remedies that decrease exposure to toxic chemicals, such as endocrine disruptors. At the same time, they support our immune system and assist with uplifting our mood.
4. Why essential oils are more than a natural alternative for wellness and healing, they are a synergistic support for all holistic protocols.
5. Clinical studies on the benefits and uses of essential oils, including ones that compare their efficacy to medications.

This information is applicable ONLY for therapeutic quality essential oils. This information DOES NOT apply to essential oils that have not been tested for purity and standardized constituents. There is no quality control in the United States, and oils labeled as “100% pure” need only to contain 5% of the actual oil. The rest of the bottle can be filled with fillers and sometimes toxic ingredients that can irritate the skin. The studies are not based solely on a specific brand of an essential oil, unless stated.
