Using Essential Oil Diffusers at Home
The process of using an essential oil diffuser usually consists of adding water into the machine’s container, then adding a few drops or more if desired essential oils before switching it on.
The unit should be placed in any room you want to enjoy its fragrance- this is because once they’re activated by light and heat from an electric bulb situated within; their scent will fill up that space.
Choose the Location for Diffusing
What’s the most important thing when it comes to using essential oils in your home? The environment, of course. Place a diffuser about six inches from where you are standing so that its scent can fill everything around.
To create the best mood for getting rid of stress, try using an essential oil diffuser in your room or office. This will not only help clear out any negative energy but also freshen up stale air with natural scents from plants such as lavender and peppermint.
Add Water to Your Diffuser
To start off, plug it into a nearby outlet so that there is enough power before you put anything on top like water (which must be heated). Then lay down placemats if needed because wood surfaces can get damp when wetted by released moisture.
Once you have your place picked out, fill up the water tank in a diffuser with clean tap water that’s room temperature. Most of these machines require around four cups for every hour they’re running so be sure to check and follow instructions.
Add Aromatherapy/Essential Oil
Next, add 3-10 drops of essential oils to the water. You can use a single essential oil like lavender or an aromatherapy blend containing many different plant and flower extracts for additional benefits such as increased mental clarity and focus.
Turn Your Essential Oil Diffuser On
Place your diffuser back on and enjoy the wonderful scent. Now you can set which features it has like a nightlight or color changing LED lights. Turn on to start enjoying scents that will relax, soothe, energize, and excite everyone in your household.
