Take an EO for a Walk Day - Lemon-Scented Myrtle

[Guest guest]

Yay!

I have lemon Myrtle, mine is Backhousia citriodoria.

It really is a happy oil, but it sort of bites!

I would love to know the botanical relation between common myrtle and

lemon myrtle are they the same family. There is a woods near enough

to Galway City, it's called Chevy Chase woods, my favorite woods.

It's a part of the old oak woods of Ireland stretching all the way

from Galway to Limerick and is a very magical place. I followed the

river one time to a hill in a clearing. The hill was thick with sweet

myrtle bushes. It was so gorgeous. The herb is associated with love,

healing and divination AFAIK. I love it.

This is fun! Great group too, lovely company! Thanks!

We'll be thinking about you! Hope all goes well. With the surgery,

and the CP recovery.

 

Guess we'll hear all about it in that long (time to type) post.

 

Cheers,
