People did use herbs in Europe since 60,000 years ago but still, this is one of the earliest medicines to be found in the wild. Its antiquity and our awareness of the past brings a sense of renewal and seeking new adventures. Smelling this oil we experience many generations using this healing gift and we get a clear vision of the power of healing and the power of the healer within.
