dōTERRA Bergamot | Bergamot Essential Oil
Bergamot is the most delicate of citrus plants, requiring a special climate and soil to thrive. Italians have long used Bergamot to reduce feelings of stress and to soothe and rejuvenate the skin. In Greece, unripe fruits are used as sweets, eaten with a spoon as a dessert or with coffee. Bergamot is unique among citrus oils because it has uplifting and calming properties, making it ideal for easing anxiety and sadness. It also has cleansing and purifying effects on the skin while simultaneously calming.
