“I can definitely feel a forest within! This is a very interesting blend. I feel like it’s soothing and refreshing at the same time. It has a good balance of both sensations, I love it” -Mar D.
Primary Ingredients
Fir
Description: There are many different species of fir originating from various parts of the world. At MONQ, we most frequently use Balsam, Douglas, and Siberian firs! The bulk of our firs come from the United States and Canada, but some are sourced from Europe. Firs are rich in alpha- and beta-pinene.
Scientific Name: Abies

Frankincense
Description: Frankincense has been used for thousands of years to awaken the spirit and balance the mind. In meditation practices, it allows for deeper breaths that restore calmness and peace.
Scientific Name: Boswellia Carterii
Extraction Method: steam-distilled
Pinyon pine
Description: We ethically source our pinyon pine from wild-harvested trees in the southwest United States. While similar in chemistry to the scotch pine, pinyon also has elements from the family of firs. The aroma is unique and distinct with fruity notes that join the woody, conifer aromas that are expected.

Breathe terpene-rich air in Forest MONQ and diffuse this purifying blend in your spaces.
The primary ingredients in Forest are Fir, Frankincense, and Pine.
Forest contains many types of fir and pine! In fact, one of our favorite essential oils is Recycled Christmas Tree. Our supplier creates this essential oil by codistilling the Christmas trees that decorated Colorado homes to give them new life! Also added to this blend are balsam fir, pinyon pine, and siberian fir. Both pine and fir have restorative, rejuvenating, and purifying properties. They are perfect for cleansing the air in your spaces.
Frankincense is an oil with centering and balancing properties, making it a perfect complement to the pines and firs in Forest.

What does it mean to Feel Forest?
Forest Bathing has been around for centuries. It has more recently received new attention due to the increasing stress levels we all experience. Being able to be out in the forest, or to take a walk in the woods, allows us to breathe in the beneficial air that contains the many terpenes that we all need. But what happens if we do not have access to this type of lifestyle on a regular basis?
Many people now find themselves living in urban environments surrounded by buildings and concrete. This was not the surroundings we evolved in and our bodies need terpenes in order to be balanced and live healthier lives. Adding a house plant and flowers you enjoy to your living spaces can help, but it is only a small step in providing to you what you need.
Forest MONQ can bring the much-needed plant compounds right to you and can provide a healthy daily dose of terpenes which can boost your mood and emotions. This can be very helpful when you can not get outside, instead MONQ can help you bring the outside in.
