Sandalwood is one of the best essential oils for meditation. It is warming and grounding, which helps to create feelings of serenity and security. The centering properties of sandalwood are perfect for preparing the mind for meditation. I combine sandalwood with cedarwood, for strengthening and comfort, and lavender for the gentle, calming effect.
To make this meditation bath, you will need:
- 7 drops sandalwood essential oil
- 2 drops cedarwood
- 3 drops lavender
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Add the essential oils to your carrier oil. Sesame is great, but you can also use sweet almond, avocado, or even virgin olive oil. Disperse into warm bath water. Dim the lights, or if you have a few aromatherapy candles use them to set a more relaxing space. Enjoy your meditation bath for about 15 minutes. Sip some water, herbal tea, or room temperature juice when you get out. Make sure you are comfortable and start meditating.
