Sweet Orange oil is cold-pressed from the rind of the fruit. Aromatherapists have long used it as a calming oil, and early research points in the same direction. In one study, volunteers who breathed sweet orange aroma before a stressful task did not show the rise in anxiety and tension seen in the comparison groups. Its aroma is rich in limonene, often over 90% of the oil, a natural component that has shown calming effects in early animal studies. there to help ease the tension of a stressful moment. In Settle and Soothe, Sweet Orange is there to help ease the tension of a stressful moment.

Lavender oil is high in linalool and linalyl acetate, compounds that studies suggest may promote relaxation. Lavender is the most widely studied oil in aromatherapy research on anxiety. In a number of trials, participants who inhaled lavender oil reported lower anxiety than comparison groups, though results vary from study to study. Some trials have also looked at blood pressure and heart rate, with smaller and less consistent findings. In Settle and Soothe, Lavender is there to help create a calmer sense of being.

Geranium essential oil has been studied for its potential to ease anxiety, and in aromatherapy it is often used to invite a calmer mind. In Settle and Soothe, its floral, rosy note is there to soothe anxious thoughts and support a transition to a more easeful state of mind.

Clary Sage is valued in aromatherapy for its calming qualities and may help ease feelings of stress and soothe frazzled nerves. It's naturally rich in linalyl acetate, often making up 60–70% of the oil, which makes it one of the richest sources of this soothing ester in aromatherapy. In one small study of menopausal women, cortisol, a hormone linked to stress, was lower after inhaling Clary Sage, though the study had no comparison group. In Settle and Soothe, created to settle the mind after tension, Clary Sage is there to support that intention.
Please note: as a precaution, avoid Clary Sage during pregnancy or if you have a hormone-sensitive condition, and check with your doctor first if you take hormone-related medication.

Virginian Cedarwood is steam distilled from the wood of the Juniperus virginiana tree and is naturally rich in cedrol. Inhalation studies on cedrol suggest it may encourage the body to shift into its "rest and digest" state, which is linked with a calmer body and mind. Its warm, woody aroma has long been associated with feelings of grounding and being centred. In Golden Hour, Cedarwood works alongside Vetiver to anchor the blend, bringing a steady sense of stability.

Myrrh oil is distilled from a tree resin that has been used and valued since ancient times for its traditional wellness, cosmetic, aromatic, and spiritual applications. Emotionally, Myrrh is traditionally used in aromatherapy to invite a grounded state and support a more balanced emotional outlook, which is why it has a place in this blend for its spiritual and meditative associations.
