Cinnamon Bark

Cinnamon is believed to come from the Hebrew word kinamon, or the Phoenician word “kinnámmon”. The cinnamon bark essential oil is steam-distilled from bark. The oil produced from the bark is high in cinnamaldehyde, which is irritating to the skin and should be used with care.Cinnamon is said to attract wealth by transforming our core beliefs of limitation into abundance. It will release anger, frustration, and abuse that we have buried that deal with our dependence and addictions.
