Marjoram Essential oil (Origanum majorana)

This oil is my favorite of the herb oils. Like I love Basil, and Mountain Savory, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE Marjoram. It's like a sweet version of Oregano.   It almost has a perfume quality because of it's sweetness but you definitely know it's an herb.

I fell in love with Marjoram a few years ago when I was obsessing over Italian food. One of the recipes I found called for an olive oil sauce with red onion and marjoram leaves.  It was an amazing recipe and I've been hooked on Marjoram ever since.

I was super excited when I found out Young Living carried Marjoram Essential oil and ordered it from their vitality line. I occasionally use it in recipes but I love adding it to a massage oil or diffusing it when I really want to relax and make the house smell amazing.

5 Reasons why you should use Marjoram Essential oil.

  1. It aids in digestion. Try diluting it with a carrier oil in a vegetable capsule and take once daily. Or apply diluted to your stomach and abdomen twice daily.
  2. It can help with women's wellness. Apply diluted to your lower abdomen during aunt flow.
  3.  Do to its antibacterial and anti-fungal nature it's wonderful for use during Mani and Pedi's. If you get them done professionally try keeping a roller bottle with diluted Marjoram in your purse and apply some to your nail beds after getting them pampered.
  4.  The aroma is calming and can relieve stress. Diffuse it or add to Epson salts before a bath to help you unwind.
  5.  It makes for a soothing massage. Add a few drops to a carrier oil and give (or get!) a relaxing massage.
