Bergamot is a beautifully fragrant citrus essential oil that is uplifting and refreshing. It takes its name from the town of Bergamo in Northern Italy, and traditionally, Bergamot has been used in Italian folk medicine.

Cardamom essential oil is a sweet and warm, spicy-toned essential oil that is distilled from the ripe fruits of the leafy cardamom shrub. Most commonly known as a condiment in Indian food, and as an aide in Eastern traditional medicine, history records it as also being used in incenses and perfumes. It has a distinctive, warm, rich aroma.
In pregnancy, I like to use cardamom for its carminative properties because it can help with queasiness and indigestion. It is known to settle the stomach and can be helpful in easing the sensation of nausea.

Since the plant releases a red oil that resembles blood when it is squeezed too hard, it was thought to be a plant blessed by God. Early folks thought that the oil only poured out of it on the anniversary of the day that St. John the Baptist from the Bible was beheaded, which is the 29th of August. But the timing was actually just close to the date that the plant happens to reach full maturity each year. Christians also held onto the plant while saying a rhyme to keep pagans and witches away.
