Star Anise

There’s nothing quite like the unmistakable aroma of spicy, sweet black licorice. Star Anise boasts just such an aroma. And like so many of its spice essential oil relatives, Star Anise is a go-to for stomach and digestion issues. Next time you overindulge at dinner and are feeling just a little too full, use Star Anise to help soothe tightness and cramping. Additionally, many believe this oil is helpful during a woman’s normal transition to menopause as it may help ease sudden heat and sweating.
