The Oil of Surrender
dōTERRA Wintergreen is sourced as part of the dōTERRA Co-Impact Sourcing® initiative. This initiative creates increased economic opportunity and sustainability. Our Wintergreen is from the rural mountains of Nepal where it is wild harvested by rural villagers then distilled in community-owned distillation facilities.
Wintergreen essential oil has a sweet, minty and refreshing aroma which is uplifting and stimulating. Emotionally, Wintergreen is the oil of surrender. It imbues the soul with strength and teaches how to let go and be free of the negativity and pain one holds on to.
The main chemical component of Wintergreen oil is methyl salicylate. This is a rare organic chemical that is found naturally in only two plants worldwide – Birch and Wintergreen. Methyl Salicylate contains strong soothing and renewing properties. It is warming to the skin when applied topically which makes it fantastic for massaging tired muscles.
Other great ways to use Wintergreen are:
🌟 Diffuse to freshen your home and have a positive and uplifting effect.
🌟 Add a couple of drops to a warm bath to relax the body and mind.
🌟 Place a few drops on a cotton ball and place it in your gym bag to mask the smell of sweaty gym clothes.
🌟 Apply to your skin to help reduce the appearance of blemishes.
