A common problem nowadays is anxiety and commonly medications
such as benzodiazepine are used to treat it.
These medications can cause withdrawal symptoms, but also cause a
series of problems that include memory loss, hip fractures, and lack
of concentration. Instead, the underlying cause of anxiety can be
treated with natural stress management methods, such as emotional
freedom techniques (EFT). Another method that is worth trying is
aromatherapy.

An investigation showed that in addition to having a minimal risk, the treatment of stress with essential oils is effective. If you find it interesting to try this therapy, you can start with geranium oil.

What is Geranium Oil?

The geranium is a perennial shrub that comes from South Africa1 with small pink flowers and pointy leaves. Pelargonium graveolens is one of the many strains of the plant and is also the source of this essential oil. The oil is widely used in aromatherapy and contains a number of beneficial compounds.

Geranium oil is often compared to rose essential oil as they share almost the same therapeutic traits. In fact, the geranium is known as "the rose of the poor" and often its oil is the alternative option to rose oil, which is more expensive.

There are several varieties of geranium oil depending on the place where they are grown. The geranium of the highest quality and with the highest price is produced on the French island Reunion, where it is called bourbon geranium essential oil.

This is a really well written article! I love it.
I hadn't heard of Geranium Oil before to be perfectly honest, so I'll have to head into town to get some. If it seems effective I might try growing some in the greenhouse. The flowers look pretty too!
