What Are The Benefits Of Clary Sage?

There is an abundance of benefits to using clary sage. It can help to calm and focus you, prompting beneficial mental well-being and relief.

 

It Helps To Reduce Stress Levels

Aromatherapy uses the power of scent to calm the mind and reduce feelings of anxiety. When used in aromatherapy, clary sage oil can help alleviate stress by inducing a sense of well-being. When inhaled, clary sage essential oil helps you to feel relaxed and it also can help to reduce blood pressure.

 

It Has Natural Antidepressant Qualities

Clary sage has amazing antidepressant properties and can be used to alleviate feelings of depression by acting as an anti-stressor. 

All you need to do is inhale the essential oil and it will help to reduce your cortisol levels which is the stress hormone. This is what can have an antidepressant-like effect.


It Can Relieve Menopause Symptoms

What a lot of people may not know is that clary sage oil is sclareol. This means it has the properties to mimic the effects of estrogen in the body. 

You can access these properties by applying diluting clary sage oil onto the bottom of your feet and it can help reduce menopause symptoms such as hot flashes.

 

Why Sage Is Used In Aromatherapy

The wellness properties of sage are why it is largely used in aromatherapy for its calming properties.
