Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis).

A member of the mint family, is considered a calming herb. It was used as far back as the Middle Ages to reduce stress and anxiety, promote sleep, improve appetite, and ease pain and discomfort from indigestion (including gas and bloating, as well as colic). Even before the Middle Ages, lemon balm was steeped in wine to lift spirits, help heal wounds, and treat venomous insect bites and stings.

Wild crafted essential oils are organic-quality essential oils that are harvested without the use of pesticides or fertilizers and with care for the surrounding environment. 
Here are some characteristics of wild-crafted essential oils:
  • Organic: Wild-crafted oils are organic in quality, even though they aren't certified as such.
  • Carefully harvested: The plant parts are collected with care.
  • Potent: Because the plants have to work harder to develop, the oils can be more potent and have higher levels of active constituents. All plant properties remain intact providing a more pure plant oil.

It is also used in creams to treat cold sores (oral herpes).

Essential oils made from lemon balm leaves contain plant chemicals called terpenes, which play at least some role in the herb's relaxing and antiviral effects. Lemon balm contains substances called tannins, which may be responsible for many of the herb's antiviral effects. For cold sores or herpes sores, steep 2 to 4 tsp. of crushed leaf in 1 cup boiling water for 10 to 15 minutes. Cool. Apply tea with cotton balls to the sores throughout the day.
