I LOVE Sacred Sandalwood essential oil! It’s one of the first oils I loved just for the smell of it! In other words, I loved it before I knew anything about all of its health benefits! Not surprising, since it’s been used in perfumes since ancient times! But this powerhouse is good for way more than perfume! When I think sandalwood, I think “skin and emotions”
In fact, it’s nicknamed “The Oil of Emotion.” It has a warm, woodsy, slightly sweet aroma that just makes you feel cozy inside just from inhaling it.
It’s great for skin and helps to enhance a deep sleep! When it comes to emotional healing, it’s said that sacred sandalwood can help remove negative programming from our cells. It’s also high in sesquiterpenes, which can stimulate the pineal gland and limbic system of the brain, where our emotions are stored.

🌿 Health Benefits of Sandalwood Essential Oil
🧠 Calming & Grounding
Stress and Anxious Thoughts: Sandalwood has been shown to decrease physiological markers of anxiety when inhaled or applied topically.
Supports mental clarity and focus: Often used in meditation and prayer for its grounding properties.
😴 Promotes Restful Sleep
The relaxing aroma helps support deeper, more restorative sleep, especially when diffused at bedtime or applied topically with a carrier oil.
🧖🏻♀️ Skin Health
Soothing to irritated or inflamed skin: Anti-inflammatory and cooling properties help calm redness.
Supports Skin: Its gentle astringent properties help regenerate skin and minimize scarring.
Hydrating & anti-aging: Sandalwood helps improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines.
🦠 Antimicrobial & Antiviral
Contains compounds (like alpha- and beta-santalol). These two compounds are effective against certain bacteria, viruses, and fungi—making it a powerful oil for cleansing.

🕊️ Hormonal & Emotional Balance
Especially supportive for women during monthly cycles or times of hormonal fluctuation—calming both mood and body.
