Every essential oil has an emotional component. Coriander essential oil is The Oil of Integrity. Specifically integrity with one's Self. The person in need of coriander essential oil may be trapped in a cycle of serving others while neglecting their own needs. They may also have a strong need to do what is right or correct. Often the minds' perspective of the "right" way is way too limited and seen from only one perspective. Coriander essential oil reminds individuals that there is more than one way to do something, and that fitting in often requires betrayed the True Self. Coriander moves the individual from doing things for the acceptance of other to honoring and living from the True Self. There are as many ways of being as there are people in the world. Coriander essential oil gives courage to step out of "the box" and risk being who one really is. (Excerpt taken from Emotions & Essential Oils: A Modern Resource for Healing)
