White cedar is a wonderful addition to a hot, steaming bath and delightful in diffusers.

"Studding the scaly leaves and small branchlets are tear-shaped glands just visible to the naked eye. These track the upper and underside of the fronds like tiny footprints. With the aid of a hand lens, the glands can be clearly seen. They appear to hold one small teardrop of light yellow essential oil that has an opaque appearance. Injury with a thumbnail to this gland releases a strong and pleasant odor of sage mixed with camphor and a touch of lavender. This is the essential oil of white cedar. It is part but not all of the tree's living pharmacopeia."
