Are you a Sandalwood connoiseur? Connoiseuse? Then, welcome home!
Because I am passionate about everything Sandalwood ... the culture around which it evolved, its spiritual place in the lives of those who love and it's power to heal and relax us. You have my personal assurance, that here at DayBreak, we do Sandalwood better than any company anywhere outside of Mysore, India -- large or small -- because we buy and use the best. It is our way of paying respect to this revered aromatic presence.

Sandalwood is one of the oldest and best known of all aromatics, having been in continuous use for over 4000 years. Sandalwood is calming and useful as an aid to meditation. It is excellent for the stresses of a hectic life as it helps reduce tension, confusion, fear and release obsessions. It is also widely known to be an excellent aphrodisiac and anti-depressant.

Sandalwood helps us cut past ties, and move through and past grief, isolationist feelings, ego-centrism (no I don't mean you!), and aggression. It opens us, allowing us to receive love, warmth and understanding. Sandalwood has the ability to bring us back to ourselves, to connect with the earth, to still the mind and allow creativity and our higher consciousness to flower. It runs like a common thread throughout many of the world's major religions. In Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam, sandalwood forms the heart of their aromatic aspects, helping to realize and bring the divine within.
