Essential oils are a staple in my home. They are a great, affordable and all natural way to support overall wellness. One of my favorite ways to use essential oils in my home is diffusing them.
There are many benefits to diffusing oils. I want to focus on just a few in this post. Here are 3 reasons I diffuse essential oils in my home.
1 – support the mind and emotions
Did you know our bodies contain over 1,000 receptors for smell? That’s more than any other of our senses! This means we are very sensitive to smell and by diffusing oils into the air we breathe we can help influence and support our mind and mood. Get that diffuser going when things start to feel a little hectic, or when you’re stressing, or when you’re having one of those days where everything just seems to be going wrong. When I start diffusing, I like to sit by it for a minute or two and just breathe deeply before I get back to whatever it was I was doing.
A few of my favorite oils to diffuse during the hard emotions are, Balance® (Grounding Blend), Bergamot, Lemon, Wild Orange, Adaptive™, and Lavender. Choose up to three of these oils and add 3-4 drops each into your diffuser and start it up!
2 – cleansing to the air
Keep those germs away with the diffuser! Many oils have anti-microbial properties and when diffused into the air, the compounds come in contact with airborne pathogens; cleansing the air and keeping your body safe! Diffusing certain oils will also help minimize the effects of seasonal and environmental threats!
Oils I use to cleanse the air in my home include, Juniper Berry, Lime, Purify (cleansing blend ) and Onguard® (Protective Blend)! I usually don’t do Purify and OnGuard together, I chose one or the other then maybe add one of the other oils I listed. Add 3-4 drops and diffuse away!
3 – sleep support
Ah, sleep. Anyone else feel like they don’t always get enough of it? I love diffusing oils throughout the night! Certain oils have the ability to calm the mind and body in order to get a restful night sleep.
Some of my favorites to use for sleep are, Serenity® (Restful Blend), Vetiver, Juniper Berry, Adaptive™, and Breathe® (Respiratory Blend). My go-to trio is Serenity, Juniper Berry and Vetiver. It is helpful to switch things up every once in a while though. These are the main ones I cycle through. I chose up to 3 of these oils then add 3-4 drops each into the diffuser.
Diffusing is such an easy way to enjoy the benefits of essential oils! And the diffuser itself is such a fun little decor piece that will look great in anyones home! Do you already diffuse in your home? What’s your favorite to diffuse right now?
