An energising oil that may help you to focus the mind
Black Pepper Essential Oil is a warming oil that has a stimulating effect on body and mind; a great one to add to the burner if you have a task to do to (its a very powerful oil, so a little goes a long way).
It may also help to improve circulation and ease digestive problems.
It's properties are often thought to be similar to those of capsicum. Historically it's been used as a muscle relaxant and an aphrodisiac for thousands of years. It's also said to help improve concentration.
