Background ‘droplet’

Chamomile Roman (larger than German Chamomile) is a strongly aromatic perennial herb that produces large daisy-like flowers, which is found growing in dry fields and cultivated gardens throughout Europe and North America.

Chamomile Roman yields a straw-yellow to transparent essential oil from the flowering heads.

It is an invaluable skin healing essential oil when added to vegetable oil, non-perfumed cream or lotion, and is calming to the nervous system, easing anxiety and feelings of anger and frustration, and hyperactivity, and so much more.

Energetic qualities

Water, Wood.  Yin, Yang
