It helps to relax and revitalize the nervous system and is good for nervous tension and nervous exhaustion, reducing stress levels that lead to irritability, restlessness, and insomnia. Its uplifting energy gives it an antidepressant quality. It is an immune strengthener, especially in cases where nervous depression is involved. Frankincense has been applied topically to help shrink tumors, especially in the breasts. It has also been massaged over the ovaries to ease ovarian inflammation and pain during menses.

Emotionally it slows down breathing and produces feelings of calm. Possessing an elevating and soothing effect on the mind, frankincense allows the consciousness to expand. It works well with anxious and obsessive states linked to worrying about the past and is a strong support tool for agitation, worry or conditions here the mind is distracted and overwhelmed by a multitude of thoughts. Releasing feelings of being tied down or restricted from over-attachment to a thought, idea or thing, it helps a person gain insight, spiritual self-discipline and tranquility.
