Interesting facts about lemon balm:

Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis) has been valued as a medicinal plant for over 2000 years. The name "Melissa" comes from the Greek and means "honey bee" – the plant was so popular with bees that it was specifically planted in beehives in ancient times.

In aromatherapy, lemon balm oil is considered the "oil of serenity" – it calms without sedating, refreshes without overstimulating. In combination with lemon oil, a perfect balance between activation and relaxation is created.
