A few things:


DO NOT DRINK ESSENTIAL OILS.  People have been talking about that on here for a while, it's a terrible idea, AND very few components in the EO's will absorb well through the GI track.  Instead, either (a) try transdermal absorption, which I have had some success with; (b) put 2-3 drops in a small glass and inhale the vapors for about 10 second bursts; (c) put 2 drops on a small tea light candle BUT IT'S FLAMMABLE SO BE CAREFUL WITH THIS METHOD; (d) put 2 drops on [insert favorite plant matter to smoke] and smoke it.


I would say that inhalation of the vapors is the best way to feel the effects of elemi oil, or any good EO.  It's not fast to stand over the glass and breath, but it's better for you than burning it, and it can produce the same effects.  Rubbing in the skin can work too, but you will get higher concentrations in your blood if you inhale the vapor/smoke it laced into something than through your skin.  Through your skin is very inefficient.


FYI - if you love smoking cannabis, there is a great article on pubmed about the terpines in the plant.  I have personally made an essential oil booster for cannabis consisting of lemongrass, lime, and basil that will KNOCK ME ON MY ASS everytime, and I smoke often.  Changing the mixes often helps to not develop tolerance.  I actually want to combine elemi or Indonesian nutmeg oils with cannabis and see if I trip my balls off. :thumb_up:
