About Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis) from Young Living's Farm:
Lemon balm, also known as melissa, is a perennial plant from the mint family (Lamiaceae) native to the Mediterranean region. Young Living cultivates lemon balm on its own lavender farm in St. Maries, Idaho, where the plants thrive under optimal conditions. The essential oil is extracted from the leaves through steam distillation—approximately 3–7 tons of plant material are needed to produce 1 kg of lemon balm essential oil. This makes lemon balm one of the rarest and most precious essential oils in the world, often referred to as "liquid gold." Lemon balm contains valuable constituents such as citral, citronellal, and geraniol. The name "melissa" comes from the Greek word for "honeybee," as bees are particularly attracted to the flowers.
Perfect for:
- Promoting calmness and concentration
- Mood boost and positive energy
- Stress reduction and emotional balance
- Meditation and mindfulness practice
- Skincare for cleansed, balanced skin
- Relaxing baths and massages
- Nervousness and inner restlessness
- Aromatherapy for emotional well-being
