Sweet Orange essential oil has a sweet citrus aroma that promotes joy, stimulates creativity and reduces anxiety and discouragement.

Psycho-emotional benefits: Sweet Orange Essential Oil is one of the essential oils that refer to childhood. This digression that it provides to its user, brings feelings that were often forgotten with the act of growing up and becoming a mature person. Recovering the most puerile feelings, the user regains the ability to adapt to the environment in which he lives, without fear, but with confidence to face the new things that life presents. Confidence triggers a number of benefits, such as unconcern, a confident person does not worry about what is to come, he reacts and knows that he is capable of facing challenges. Free from worries the mind calms down.
When awakening the inner child, there is the arousal of creativity that was unused or forgotten; being an ally of very serious people, who repress feelings or have suffered some kind of blockage. The awakened child also brings with him good humor, optimism, enthusiasm, joy and hope.
Its uses are for insomniac, immature people who have difficulty adjusting to life changes (especially the more stubborn and traditional ones).
