Cumin EO

Cumin essential oil (Cuminum cyminum) is steam distilled from the seeds of the plant. Its aroma is masculine, earthy, and spicy, and of course, reminiscent of cumin powder. It's primarily used to support the digestive system, muscles and joints, immune system, and for flavoring.

Primary Benefits

Emotional Benefits

Cumin is commonly thought to support a person who has gone through some form of abuse. It can help you to clear the emotional and physical pain you may be holding onto, as well as provide an emotional barrier or boundary as you examine, process, and health the trauma. Cumin oil being a digestive oil leads to a clue as to how it supports us, by working with the solar plexus center of the body. It can help you find your inner strength again, even tapping into anger to allow you to defend yourself, push through attacks, and not let your abuser win.

Complimentary Oils

Cumin blends well with Cilantro and Coriander essential oils. Depending on your uses for this oil, substitutes may include Dill, Fennel, Peppermint, Wintergreen, and Frankincense.
