Description: 

The Myrrh Tree (Commiphora myrrha) is an ancient, hardy and sacred desert tree which has a recorded history dating back thousands for years, a timeline along which multiple civilisations have traded and used valuable dried resin/gum for various applications. Most famously referenced in the Holy Bible as "Frankincense and Myrrh" resins were at the time given as valuable gifts said to be hoarded and traded like gold and out of reach for the average man/woman of the time. Myrrh Essential Oil is attained via the steam distillation of the dried resin/gum/sap of the tree. The Myrrh Tree is very similar to the Frankincense tree in its origins and dated history, also in the way the essential oils are both gained from the dried resin. Traditionally the resins were burnt in special cups/resin burning artifacts, as when the dried resin was lit, it smouldered and smoked, filling the room with the aroma and elements from the resin. Myrrh has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurvedic medicine. Scientists are now testing the oil’s potential uses, including for pain, infections, and skin sores. Its warm, woody, subtle amber scent builds a warm, calming atmosphere. When diffused, Myrrh can help ease nervous tension and bring about feelings of strength. It is also known for helping with skin issues such as redness and reducing the occurrence of wrinkles and scars when added to a carrier oil or lotion. (more detailed info coming soon).
