Description

Vetiver, a member of the grass family, is grown for many reasons. Unlike other grasses, the root system of Vetiver grows down, making it ideal for helping to prevent erosion and providing soil stabilization. Vetiver has a rich, exotic, complex aroma that is used extensively in perfumes. Due to Vetiver’s calming, grounding effect on the emotions, it is an ideal oil to use in massage therapy. It can also be rubbed on the feet before bedtime.

Uses

  • Add 1–2 drops to tea or hot drinks during winter time.
  • Use as a massage oil to help calm emotions.
  • Diffuse a few drops of Vetiver for deep relaxation.
  • Diffuse with Lavender, doTERRA Serenity®, or doTERRA Balance®.
  • Use a toothpick to help get the desired amount out of container if Vetiver is too thick to get out of the bottle. A little goes a long way.

Directions for Use

Diffusion:Use three to four drops in the diffuser of choice.
Internal use:Dilute one drop in 4 fl. oz. of liquid.
