Anointing Oil

Our anointing oil is carefully crafted by a group of Bethlehem brothers in the Holy Land. The main component of the oil comes from olive trees grown in Jerusalem, the Mount of Olives, and Bethlehem.

Through ongoing research, we have determined that the synergy of high-quality olive oil and premium essential oils results in distinct effects. Our meticulously chosen frankincense, myrrh, and spikenard are considered the finest within their respective categories. In the distillation process, volatile compounds from the plant material are conveyed to steam, and the most refined fractions are directed through coils into specialized vessels, where they undergo cooling before being combined. 

Frankincense, Myrrh, and Spikenard, crucial components sourced from arid regions of the Middle East, India, and Yemen, are derived from the resins released when the bark of Frankincense and Myrrh trees is incised. After the resin dries and solidifies, it is collected from the tree trunk in the form of teardrops. Spikenard or jatamansi, is a flowering plant in the valerian family, and its rhizomes are pressed through distillation to produce a deep amber-coloured thick essential oil.

The uses and benefits of anointing oil are often centered around its spiritual, traditional, and symbolic significance. In our everyday lives, it forms a close connection with us. Let us simplify the explanation of how anointing oil plays a role in our daily routines, It contributing to both our personal well-being and spiritual journey, adding deeper meaning to our lives.
