EMOTIONAL - SPIRITUAL - MENTAL ASPECTS: Sage is a good oil for alleviating the effects of prolonged stress on the body and the mind. Sage cleanses the energy grid and strengthens its ability to protect us from negative influences. Sage has a positive influence on intuition, bringing clarity and vision to our souls if we will take the time to ponder and listen.
PHYSICAL ASPECTS: The impact on physical health from a strong nervous system and an active lymph system cannot be over emphasized. Sage’s ability to strengthen the pelvic chakras, and organs within it, gives vigor and strength to the vital centers of the body. With nerves, lymph, and pelvic organs being strengthened, it is easy to see why Sage has long been considered the “master healer.”
Sage is believed to contain constituents that stimulate the secretion of progesterone-testosterone and keep their activities balanced. Sage is useful for most glandular disorders, any complaint related to lymph congestion, and any disorders related to nerve deterioration or prolonged nervous stress. Sage also clears away cellular debris and strengthens cell wall integrity, making Sage useful for arthritis, dandruff, hair loss, skin conditions, gingivitis, sprains, and firming tissues.
