There are over 600 species of Helichrysum occurring worldwide, with 245 found in southern Africa alone. The word helichrysum is derived from the Greek "helios" meaning sun and "chrysos" meaning gold, referring to the color of many of the flowers of species in this genus. As an essential oil, helichrysum is considered by some to one of the "sacred" oils, because it is believed to open the right side of the brain, which is said to improve creativity, increase dream activity, and encourage spirituality and personal growth. Herbalists use helichrysum prepared as a tea to help maintain healthy energy levels associated with jet lag and PMS.
