More About Sandalwood

The sandalwood tree, native to India, is a small evergreen that gets nutrients from photosynthesis but draws the water and minerals that it requires from the roots of a host tree. (Mistletoe belongs to the same family.) Sandalwood has been used for its perfume for some four thousand years in the East. In powdered form it is burned as incense. Sandalwood oil can help break the vicious circle of insomnia, wherein the sufferer has trouble sleeping, becomes anxious about not sleeping and then finds it even harder to sleep because of the anxiety. Sandal-wood will induce a state of relaxation that is conducive to sounder, easier sleep.
