Lemon Verbena Hydrosol - Lippia citrodora

We've had so many requests for this lovely lemon herbal water we couldn't resist any longer.  Organically Certified from a master distiller in California, this is an aromatic delight!

Jeanne Rose recommends Lemon Verbena hydrosol for calming the nerves, as a sleep aid (when taken internally), or as a reviving and refreshing spritz when traveling.

Suzanne Catty calls it a powerful mental relaxant and "stress buster" and recommends its use for stage fright, pre-exam jitters, the kind of fear that creates a knot in ones stomach.  She says it helps boost self esteem and self confidence.  Because of its sedating qualities, if mental focus is required, she suggests blending it with a less sedating relaxant such as Neroli or Cistus hydrosols. 

Internally, Catty says that it can relieve PMS symptoms, and reduce cramps. 

The hydrosol has a wide range of uses, according to the above authors. One caveat, although I may be super vigilant: the pure essential oil of Lemon Verbena is proven to be a powerful sensitizer and should never be used topically.  Although lemon verbena hydrosol is recommended for use on oily, combination or problem skin, I hesitate to recommend it for skin care use, and topical use should be avoided with those who tend to become allergic or sensitized to fragrant materials.
