Inspired by the Wood element in Traditional Chinese Medicine, the homework Wood Essential Oil Blend is a restorative fragrance designed to encourage growth, flexibility, and creative vision. In TCM, Wood is the element of Spring and is governed by the Liver and Gallbladder. When balanced, it allows for the smooth movement of Qi and the ability to plan for the future. As a founder’s staple at the Glasshouse sanctuary, this blend brings the expansive clarity of the forest into your home.

The Ritual: Add 5–10 drops to a diffuser during creative work or when feeling stagnant or frustrated. Wood energy helps shift "stuck" emotions, encouraging a sense of kindness and clear-sightedness.
