How to use essential oils:
Spiritually, aromatherapy, when combined with meditation, may help us in deepening our connection and experiencing inner calm.
Aromatherapy may be used in many different kinds of ways throughout the months of fall and winter. Here are a few suggestions:
To create a relaxing atmosphere in your living space, add up to 3 drops of essential oil to your diffuser. When using essential oils in public, it is recommended to use an aromatherapy inhaler or an essential oil roll-on. Certain individuals may be impacted by essential oil diffusers. Make sure to keep this in mind.
Tips for using essential oils safely:
- Essential oils are highly concentrated and should be used with caution. Always dilute essential oils in a carrier oil before applying them to your skin.
