In my Aromatherapy blog post I briefly mentioned that one of the most popular ways to use essential oils was with a diffuser.  Diffusing essential oils is a great chemical free way to scent your home, but it also has quite a few side benefits too:

-reduces bacteria, fungus, mold and unpleasant odors

-relaxes the mind and body, relieves tension and helps clear the mind

-improves concentration, alertness and mental clarity

Ultrasonic diffusers are one of the most popular types of essential oil diffusers… and for good reason!  They are affordable, easy to use and clean, and most importantly- they don’t utilize heat, which maintains the essential oils integrity and therapeutic properties.  Ultrasonic diffusers use high-frequency ultrasonic electrical vibrations to create a fine aromatherapy mist.

There are an endless amount of essential oil combinations you can use in your diffuser, here are just a few of the ones I use regularly in my home:

Energizing Blend

3 drops of wild orange

3 drops of peppermint

Spa Blend (also great for seasonal threats)

2 drops of lavender

2 drops of lemon

2 drops of peppermint

Sleepy Time Blend

3 drops lavender

3 drops frankincense

Nightmare Tamer Blend

2 drops juniper berry

2 drops cedarwood

2 drops bergamot
