What is Bergamot Essential Oil?

Bergamot essential oil is extracted from the peel of the Citrus Bergamia tree which is native to Italy. It contains a unique combination of monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, and other organic compounds which makes it very powerful in providing therapeutic benefits.

These components have been studied extensively and are known to possess antioxidant, antiseptic, antidepressant, anti-inflammatory, and immunostimulant properties.

Botanical Name: Citrus bergamia

Extraction Method: Cold Pressed

Family: Rutaceae

Plant Part: Peel

Aroma: Citrusy, sweet, and tart

Blending Note: Top

The most notable benefit that bergamot essential oil provides is its ability to reduce stress levels, lift moods and promote relaxation. The sweet aroma also helps to create a peaceful atmosphere wherever it's used, making it ideal for meditation or yoga practice.

The bergamot orange is not related to the herbs known as bergamot, wild bergamot, bergamot mint, or bergamint.

Bergamot Essential Oil - The Oil of Self-Acceptance

Bergamot oil is commonly referred to as “The Oil of Self-Acceptance”. Not only does the essential oil aid in the balancing of qi and the chakra of self-power, boosting self-esteem and self-confidence.

The oil can enhance feelings of self-acceptance and reduce feelings of inadequacy. Many times, a lack of self-acceptance comes from feelings of being inadequate. These feelings of inadequacy can lower self-esteem and self-confidence.

Feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem tend to be derived from a lack of validation from within and the seeking of validation from others.

There are many different forms and reasons for feeling inadequate but there are just as many, if not more, ways to express self-acceptance. Bergamot’s uplifting property can be particularly helpful in the acceptance of self as it can boost self-confidence. Higher self-confidence can assist in the path to self-acceptance.  

Bergamot Essential Oil Emotional Benefits

Bergamot essential oil has many emotional benefits that can help to reduce stress and uplift the user’s mood. This oil can be used for aromatherapy, inhalation, massage, and topical applications.

Bergamot essential oil offers numerous emotional benefits when used:

  • The citrusy aroma is uplifting and energizing, making it an ideal choice for those seeking relief from depression or anxiety.
  • It can help to reduce stress, improve mood, and bring about a sense of calm.
  • Its scent helps to reduce stress and anxiety by creating a sense of relaxation and peace.
  • When inhaled or applied topically before bed, bergamot can help to improve sleep quality by reducing restlessness and insomnia.
  • It can act as an antidepressant and mood enhancer.
  • Helps to lift spirits, reduce feelings of sadness, and provide clarity of mind. It is especially beneficial during times of grief or sadness.
  • It helps to reduce negative emotions, while promoting positive ones.

Studies have shown that inhaling this oil triggers a response in the limbic system, the part of our brain responsible for emotion. This results in feelings of calmness and harmony.

How to Use Bergamot Essential Oil for Emotional Healing

While the effects may vary from person to person, the potential for emotional healing is clear. With its wide range of therapeutic properties, it is worth exploring if you’re looking for an all-natural way to improve your emotional wellbeing.

Bergamot Essential Oil for Anger Management 

Anger management troubles can present in many different ways and can be difficult to manage. Anger often comes from a lack of emotional regulation or processing, which can lead to stress. Bergamot essential oils can aid in anger management. 

Bergamot has adaptogen-like qualities that are present in the form of the essential oil. The adaptogen-like qualities can help manage both physical and mental stress expressed in forms of anger. 

Anger is often stored in the body through tension. Releasing that tension can allow blood and oxygen to circulate more efficiently and allow more oxygen to flow to the brain to help with emotional regulation. 

Bergamot can also be used topically to reduce physical stress, and release the tension that occurs in your body. Massages with bergamot oil are a great way to embrace the topical application of bergamot.

Be sure to dilute with a carrier oil and be aware that bergamot can be phototoxic.

Decrease Physical and Mental Stress

This oil has both calming and uplifting properties. The calming nature of bergamot is great for the release of physical and mental stress. With the processing of physical and emotional stress, your body is better adept at expressing the regulated emotions in forms other than stress and anger. 

With a diffuser, bergamot essential oil can be worked into your daily routine to assist with emotional wellness. The essential oils are often inhaled through the nasal cavity when using a diffuser. This accentuates the effects of the traditional deep breathing approach to help anger and anxiety. 

Reduction in Anxiety Levels 

Anxiety can be a major emotional problem in people of all ages. If you suffer from anxiety, you are not alone. Bergamot essential oil can be a great supplement to reduce mild anxiety and fear. 

Bergamot essential oil has limonene, a chemical compound that may show benzodiazepine-like tendencies. Benzodiazepine is usually found in medications that treat anxiety of varying levels, and has tranquilizing tendencies.

Anxiety is known to increase levels of cortisol, a stimulant released by adrenal glands. Bergamot can help reduce the levels of cortisol in your body to help lower levels of anxiety.

Create a Calming Environment

Bergamot essential oil is a great choice for those looking to create a calming atmosphere. It is a popular choice for creating calming and soothing blends due to bergamot's sweet, citrusy aroma. Perfect for use during massage, meditation, and yoga.

Bergamot's purifying and uplifting aroma can be used to create blends that are perfect for calming the mind and body, making it an ideal choice for cleansing the air and creating a peaceful atmosphere. Add this oil to a diffuser to lift the spirits and provide a refreshing break from the stresses of everyday life.

Bergamot Essential Oil Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy with bergamot essential oil is a great way to boost your emotional wellbeing. Bergamot has a sweet, citrusy aroma that can help you feel uplifted and energized. It also has calming properties, making it useful for reducing stress levels and helping you relax.

Using bergamot essential oil in aromatherapy is easy – all you need is an oil diffuser, some water and the oil itself. Simply add a few drops of the bergamot oil to your diffuser and allow its scent to fill the room. You can also use it in massage oils or lotions for an additional calming effect.

Whether applied topically or used in aromatherapy or massage therapy sessions, this versatile oil offers a variety of therapeutic effects that can benefit both physical health and emotional wellbeing.

Bergamot Essential Oil Combinations

Bergamot Essential Oil is a versatile oil with a unique, citrusy aroma that can be combined with a variety of other oils. It is widely used in aromatherapy to reduce stress, ease tension, and promote relaxation. 

Bergamot oil can be blended with other essential oils to create synergistic effects and enhance its therapeutic benefits. Let's explore some of the various combinations of bergamot essential oil that can be used to enhance its therapeutic benefits.

  • Bergamot essential oil can be combined with woody and spicy oils, such as patchouli, cinnamon, and clove.
  • It can be blended with other floral oils such as lavender, jasmine, geranium, and ylang-ylang to create stress-reducing combinations.
  • Combine bergamot with resin oils like frankincense and myrrh.
  • Bergamot oil can be used with invigorating peppermint or lemon to create stimulating and energizing blends.
  • Lavender and bergamot are a favorite comforting combination of essential oils, or you could substitute clary sage for lavender to support emotions during PMS.

When mix with bergamot, these oils can create a truly unique and enjoyable aroma. Be sure to use a carrier oil, such as jojoba oil, to dilute bergamot oil and avoid irritating the skin.

Final Thoughts on Emotional Benefits of Bergamot Essential Oil

Whether you are looking for an essential oil to put in your diffuser, for a massage, or for a bedtime bath, bergamot is the oil for you. Bergamot essential oil can be extremely helpful in the emotional areas of self-acceptance, anger management, and the reduction of anxiety.

Its fresh, citrusy aroma and its calming effects on the mind make it a great companion in moments of distress. If you want a natural way to improve your emotional health, consider incorporating bergamot essential oil into your aromatherapy routine.
