Melissa — lemon balm — has comforted heavy hearts since medieval cloister gardens. Rare and precious as an oil, its gentle lemon warmth is traditionally reached for in grief, shock, and seasons of sorrow.
It sits with sadness kindly, neither rushing nor denying it.
Dilute well — pure melissa can irritate sensitive skin; many bottles are sold pre-diluted.
As with every essential oil: never apply undiluted to skin, never ingest, always patch-test, and keep bottles out of reach of children and pets. Essential oils are potent plant concentrates — respect is part of the ritual.
“My heart is held; softness returns to me.”
