We all believe in The Tree Of life. The Power Of Nature.​

Essential and Carrier oils symbolise The Tree of Life, the Tree of Enlightenment. The Tree of Life is what sustains and nourishes life. It symbolises the beginning of a new life and a fresh start. The tree is believed to have healing properties, and its fruit grants immortality, harmony and balance, peacefulness and relaxation, nourishment from Mother Earth, personal growth, strength, and beauty.


Carrier oil is a plant-based oil with little or no scent that helps dilute essential oils, while essential oil is a natural oil with the characteristic scent and flavour of the plant or other source from which it is extracted. Carrier oils are not very strong/potent, or volatile, while essential oils are highly concentrated, potent and volatile. Carrier oils are typically sourced from the fatty parts of a plant, such as seeds, kernels or nuts, while essential oils are sourced from flowers, leaves, seeds, roots, and other parts of the plant.


Carrier oils are combined with essential oils to dilute them and alter their absorption rate. With 1–3 drops of essential oils, carrier oils can cover a large surface of your skin and help to relieve skin issues like acne, eczema, dry skin, age spots and sun. Using carrier oils also slows down the absorption rate, increasing the impact of the essential oils. There is a wide range of carrier oils to choose from, and you can make your pick based on your skin type and your skin, hair and health concerns. Most carrier oils contain essential fatty acids, antioxidants, anti-inflammatory compounds and skin-healing vitamins.


Plant essences are calming, invigorating, grounding, relaxing, inspiring, pleasing, and cleansing. All these qualities align with the goals of Feng Shui to balance the energy in the environment and create conditions for positive chi, personal growth, prosperity, robust health, and spiritual process. Essential oils may use to amplify and amend the flow of chi in your personal and public spaces and invite a potent dose of good luck into your life.
