Soar to Success January 2018

SOAR TO SUCCESS / January 2018 / Personal Growth Strategies Another resin/essential oil used in Biblical times was Balsam. In some areas of the world, Balsam is referred to as liquid gold. So, some theorize that the gold given to theChrist childmay have been balsam oil or resin. This also was known as a royal essential oil. Today, we know that Balsam has benefits to the immune system and supports the respiratory system. When they opened up King Tut’s tomb in 1922, the jewels and other belongings were intact but the essential oilswere stolen. However, the vessels that held these oils still had the resins remaining. When these resins were tested, guess what they found? Frankincense, Myrrh and Balsam! As in ancient times, these 3 essential oils are highly respected today for their healing qualities. Consider diffusing one or more of these oils for relaxation in your office or home area. Frankincense if very uplifting and Balsam has a Christmas tree aroma.
