Young Living Hinoki essential oil (Chamaecyparis obtusa) comes from the Japanese cypress and is native to central Japan. Considered a very high quality timber and one of the “Five Sacred Trees of Kiso,” Hinoki has been used historically in building palaces, temples, shrines, baths, and traditional noh theatres. With its light, woodsy scent and the naturally occurring constituent alpha-pinene, Hinoki makes a great addition to your essential oil collection. It has been used historically for refreshing the soul. Today, the oil is used to create a calm, relaxing ambiance that can help increase spiritual awareness.
