Rose Geranium is often used by Aromatherapists to provide evenness for the emotions

and help to alleviate feelings of depression brought on by stress or hormonal imbalances (such as those caused by the lack of sunlight at this time of year). It’s often praised for its ability to bring about positive feelings of happiness and joy. All of which makes it an ideal oil to help combat symptoms of SAD or winter blues.
