Public service announcement before I continue, I want to express, diffusing oil should not be used as a substitute for seeing a medical professional. \u00a0The FDA has not approved essential oils for the treatment of illness or intended to be cure. \u00a0 Always consult your medical professional.<\/p>\n
We now bring you back to your regular blog reading:<\/p>\n
When I first started with essential oils, I like many others had no idea how to use them.\u00a0 I have since learned you can use them topically; putting it on your skin alone or with a carrier oil. You can ingest it by adding it to water, food or in caplets. You can clean your house along with diffusing the oils in your home, office and even your classroom.<\/p>\n
Diffusing oil is \u00a0simply adding \u00a0just a few drops of oil to water. \u00a0The diffuser can run for a few hours or at different intervals throughout the day, \u00a0depending on your unit and its settings. Diffuser can be purchased from just about any where and there are many to choose from.<\/p>\n
I recommend diffusing for several reasons.\u00a0 Diffusing is a mood lifter that allows everyone who enters the room to be uplifted too.\u00a0 Diffusing allows for a scent of your choice to bring you peace and calm.<\/p>\n
If you have a cold or illness, you can diffuse oils that aid in healing your conditions. \u00a0 We\u2019ve all had colds, headaches, flu and a multitude of other virus.\u00a0 Many of which a doctor cannot even give you medicine for.\u00a0 In the Dr.\u2019s words \u201cit just has to run its course.\u201d \u00a0In some cases you can or will get an antibiotic. \u00a0Regardless if you were prescribed medication or not, you can continue to diffuse to help ease your discomfort.<\/p>\n
Essential oils have been used for centuries because of the potential healing properties. \u00a0 When you have a cold or cough, the top ten essential oils you can diffuse are: Eucalyptus, Lemon, Frankincense Lavender, Peppermint, Tea Tree, Oregano or Thieves. Diffuse at night while you are resting, and throughout the day.<\/p>\n
Research has shown that pleasant scents can bring back happy memories, therefore lessening your sad feelings or depression.\u00a0 During these cold, drab, days of January, you can be diffusing, Lemon, Orange, Bergamot, Clary Sage, Roman Chamomile, or Ylang Ylang, and these are just to name a few. \u00a0Think about the feeling you get when you smell a flower? \u00a0Or how about when you make homemade muffins or cookies? \u00a0That’s what diffusing can do for you too!<\/p>\n
Diffusing oils also gives you the option to mix up the blends that best fits your needs for that moment in time.\u00a0 If you\u2019re working out at home or the gym there are some great oils to enhance your workout. Some of the best oils to use before and after your work out can be Lemon, Peppermint, Lavender, Copaiba and Purification Blends. \u00a0I myself, diffuse peppermint on my way to “Curves”<\/em><\/strong>, to help give me that added energy boost to complete my workout. Of course after the workout, on my way home, I diffuse peppermint so that I keep that energy boost going!<\/p>\n Diffusing has endless possibilities.\u00a0 If you like to sit in a steam room after your workout, put some Eucalyptus oil in your hands and inhale from your hands while the steam surrounds and cleanses you.<\/p>\n Sadly when I started writing this, my diffuser was not working. \u00a0However, the new one has arrived and I’m enjoying the benefits of diffusing while I sleep. \u00a0I also diffuse in my office while working. \u00a0I’m diffusing oregano currently, the room smells so good. \u00a0Why oregano you ask, well that’s a blog for another day.<\/p>\n Essential oils have so many benefits, I love learning new ways and recipe’s to try every day. \u00a0What do you like to diffuse?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Public service announcement before I continue, I want to express, diffusing oil should not be used as a substitute for seeing a medical professional. \u00a0The FDA has not approved essential oils for the treatment of illness or intended to be cure. \u00a0 Always consult your medical professional.
