This month's carrier oil has exceptional healing and soothing properties, dating far back to the ancient Greece where it was used as medicine for a variety of illnesses including nervous disorders: St. John's Wort Oil.

The plant is usually in full bloom on around 24 June, the birthday of John Baptist from whom St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) got its name.
