Ylang Ylang Essential Oil (Cananga odorata)
Ylang Ylang Essential Oil has a sweet, soft, flowery fragrance that has made it
a romantic favorite. In Indonesia, the petals are often strewn across a marriage
bed. Ylang ylang is extremely effective in calming and bringing about a sense of
relaxation, and it may help with releasing feelings of anger, tension, and
nervous irritability. It has a long history in skin and hair care products,
particularly in Asia, where it is used to promote luxuriant hair.* Most essential oils work best when blended
with each other. The right combination will enhance the effects and power of the
essential oils. For some basic "oil recipes", check out our Recipe page or visit
our Essential Oil Blends store for some outstanding "Ready-Blends", created by
Young Living.
Body Systems Affected: Emotional Balance,
Cardiovascular and Hormonal System
Uses: Ylang Ylang essential oil may help with
balancing the male-female energies so one can move closer to being in spiritual
attunement and allow them to focus their thoughts together, filtering out the
ever-present "garbage". It may help with lowering blood pressure, rapid
breathing, balance equilibrium, frustration, balance heart function, impotence,
infection, intestinal problems, sex drive problems, shock and skin problems.
Historical Uses: The original wildflower had no
fragrance. Through selection and cloning, we now have this unique fragrance
today. Ylang Ylang has been used to cover the beds of newlywed couples on their
wedding night, for skin treatments, to soothe insect bites and in hair
preparations to promote thick, shiny, lustrous hair (it has been reported to
help control split ends).
Properties: Anti-depressant, antiseptic,
antispasmodic, sedative and tonic.
Aromatherapy Effects: Ylang Ylang influences
sexual energy and enhances relationships. It may help to stimulate the adrenal
glands. It is calming and relaxing and may also help with anger and rage and low
self-esteem. It brings back the feelings of self-love, confidence, joy and
peace.
Scent: Sweet, heavy, narcotic, tropical-floral,
with spicy-balsamic undertones.
How to use: Diffuse. Apply to
Vita Flex Points and directly on area of concern. It may be beneficial
when applied over the thymus to help to stimulate the immune system.

High Blood Pressure
"For the last several years I have been working with non-prescription methods to
bring my blood pressure down. It would average 145/89. Ylang Ylang has worked
wonders for me. At one point my blood pressure was 149/89. I applied Ylang Ylang
to the Vita Flex point on my foot and over my heart. Within 20 minutes it was at
121/89. I have now made this application a regular part of my morning."
Heart Arrhythmia stopped with Ylang Ylang
A woman in her 60īs, having suffered cardiac arrhythmia for many years, came for
aroma massage. A pleasant 'side effect' occurred. While the woman was laying on
the massage table, inhaling ylang ylang in cold air diffuser, she said....you
know what...my cardiac arrhythmia has stopped! Usually I can not lay on stomach
comfortably - my heart area just feels to uncomfortable, yet after just a few
minutes laying here inhaling this ylang ylang I have NO discomfort!
After the session the woman had me taking her pulse - it was beating regularly!
She was very pleased...and so was I!
