Cistus Essential Oil (Cistus Ladanifer) Cistus essential oil comes from a rose, also known as the Gumrock Rose, that
has a soft, honey-like scent. It is believed to be the biblical rose of Sharon.
Calming and uplifting, it is helpful for meditating and counseling. It also
helps maintain healthy lung function.* Most essential oils work best when blended
with each other. The right combination will enhance the effects and power of the

Cistus Testimonials
"Because of the posts on Cistus, I was inspired to use it on a chronic inflamed tendon in my thumb, with outstanding results." Robin
"I used Cistus for the first time around six months after I started using YL
oils. This is my very personal experience. I had been suffering from a very
heavy guilt for almost 20 years. I had done something very bad and just could
not forgive myself - no matter what - no matter how much counseling - etc. I
opened the Cistus and put a couple of drops on my heart area and behind my ears.
I love the smell of it, so I was just going to use it as perfume. To my
amazement, I felt totally at peace with myself within minutes. I no longer carry
a guilt complex, and I have been able to get on with my life. What a wonderful
feeling. Nothing had worked before, so I know it is the Cistus. Now I use it as
deodorant as well as perfume, and people love the way I smell. I LOVE THE WAY I
FEEL. :) :) Thank you for bringing this to me and others."Kathy Sheets
"At the convention, the chiropractor from the YL clinic (sorry, but I don't
recall his name) told us that the best oils for sciatic pain are the combination
of Cistus Oil and Peppermint Oil rubbed on the lower back. Since I was dealing
with sciatic pain during convention, I bought the oils
and started applying them on my lower back that same day - the result was
obvious. I had a more restful sleep and minimum pain the next day." Silvia
