A few top uses for Lime:
- Aromatically Diffusing Lime Essential Oil can assistance with memory and clarity. It can also help to shift your mood from low to enlivened. And like its friend Lemon, Lime can be diffused to purify the air in your home or office.
- Topically Along with Tea Tree, Lime is a great oil to treat head lice, you can make up a spray or mix into shampoo and apply. Due to its purifying properties and uplifting scent it’s also great to add to your face or body wash. It’s not just your body that can benefit from Lime but so can your home, put some Lime Essential Oil on a cotton pad and use to help remove grease spots and sticky residue.

Emotional support
Shift from discouraged to courageous, from resigned to emotionally honest, apathetic to revitalised with your Lime Essential Oil!
Earlier in this blog I spoke about getting into alignment (alimement), this oil can support you to balance the mind and heart, and hold for you to move into a feeling of being safe at home in your heart. Lime can cleanse the heart area of negative emotional residue and make space for positive feelings such as joy and gratitude.
Dilute a few drops of Lime Essential Oil into a carrier oil such as Fractionated Coconut Oil and rub over your heart then cup your hands together over your nose and breathe deeply.
