Destress & Digest Navel Oil

Have you used a navel oil before? Navel oil is typically applied by placing a few drops directly into the belly button and gently massaging it into the skin.

Proponents of navel oil support this area of the body is connected to various organs and systems through the navel, making it an ideal location for delivering the therapeutic benefits of the oil to the entire body.

In this case, we are working specifically on the digestive tract, seeing that the digestive tract is linked to our nervous system which is why we may experience indigestion, gas, or bloating.

If you are working on "healing your gut" this basil infused oil is just the remedy! Infused with 2 types of basil (grown organically in my own garden): Genovese and lemon basil.

Both Genovese basil (Ocimum basilicum) and lemon basil (Ocimum × citriodorum) offer several potential healing properties for the digestive tract and nervous system:

Digestive Health:

• Antispasmodic: Basil contains compounds that may help relax the muscles of the digestive tract, reducing spasms and cramping.

• Carminative: Basil's aromatic compounds can aid in relieving gas and bloating by promoting the expulsion of gas from the digestive system.

• Digestive Aid: Basil may stimulate digestion by increasing the production of digestive enzymes, facilitating the breakdown of food and absorption of nutrients.

• Anti-inflammatory: Basil contains anti-inflammatory compounds that may help reduce inflammation in the digestive tract, soothing conditions like gastritis or inflammatory bowel disease.

Nervous System:

• Sedative: The aroma of basil, particularly lemon basil, has calming properties that can help reduce stress and anxiety, promoting relaxation and mental well-being.

• Nervine: Basil may act as a nervine tonic, supporting the nervous system's overall health and function.

• Antioxidant: Both Genovese and lemon basil are rich in antioxidants, which can help protect nerve cells from oxidative damage and support cognitive function.

• Adaptogen: Basil's adaptogenic properties may help the body adapt to stress and maintain balance in the nervous system, reducing the negative effects of chronic stress.

How to Use:

Massage a few drops into belly button. Relax for 30 minutes. Wipe clean. Repeat daily upon rising or before bed.

To use navel oil without making a mess, follow these steps:

1. Choose the Right Time: Use navel oil when you have some downtime and won't be rushing around. This allows the oil to absorb properly without being disturbed.

2. Start with Clean Skin: Before applying navel oil, make sure your navel area is clean and dry. This ensures better absorption of the oil and prevents any dirt or debris from getting trapped under the oil.

3. Use a Dropper: Instead of pouring the oil directly onto your navel, use a dropper to dispense a few drops of oil at a time. This allows for more precise application and prevents accidental spillage.

4. Apply Gently: Place the dropper tip directly over your navel and squeeze out a small amount of oil. Be careful not to squeeze too hard to avoid dispensing too much oil at once.

5. Massage In: After applying the oil, gently massage it into your navel area using circular motions. This helps the oil penetrate the skin and promotes better absorption.

6. Cover if Necessary: If you're concerned about the oil getting on your clothes or bedding, you can cover your navel with a small piece of clean cloth or a bandage after applying the oil. This helps prevent any transfer of oil and keeps your clothes clean.

7. Allow to Absorb: Once applied, allow the oil to absorb into your skin for a few minutes before getting dressed or lying down. This gives the oil time to work its magic without any interference.

By following these tips, you can use navel oil effectively without making a mess and enjoy its benefits for your skin and overall well-being.
