Diffuser Time
A diffuser really is a game-changer in your home!
Using an essential oil diffuser can make any room smell wonderful. Essential oils are potent and offer lovely aromas derived from plants, flowers, fruit, herbs, and more. They are becoming increasingly popular because, unfortunately, many of the alternatives—candles, air fresheners, and plugins—can release toxins into the air. By opting for essential oils, you get a better, purer aroma, because essential oils come straight from the plant.
They really are that extra step in your household that makes it feel like you’re in a spa every day. I noticed my mood shift drastically once I started using one of these. They provide a calmness in your environment that’s priceless. They freshen your household the natural way! Plus they are so easy to use!
How to use
Here are the basics when it comes to using an essential oil diffuser:
Choose the essential oil you want to diffuse.
Add water and a few drops (5-7 drops) of the essential oil to the diffuser.
Replace the diffuser lid, turn it on, and enjoy the aroma!
WHERE TO USE IT
Your bedroom: Placing a diffuser on your bedside table or another area of the bedroom can create a custom atmosphere as you get ready for the day in the morning or prepare for sleep at night. Using your favorite essential oils can help you personalize this important space.
The kitchen: When you want to banish bad odors or freshen the kitchen, putting your diffuser on a countertop quickly and effectively brings more pleasant aromas into the room. No more worrying about leftover smells from cooking dinner or a full trash can—your essential oil diffuser is there to save the day.
The family room, entryway, or common area: If you want people to walk into your house and say, “Wow, it smells great in here,” then putting a diffuser in common areas or your entryway is a good strategy. Placing a diffuser near the front room is the perfect way to guarantee that guests are always greeted with an inviting aroma.
The bathroom: Have you ever finished cleaning the bathroom, only to feel like the space is still dingy or dull? Placing a diffuser on the counter can help you turn a boring bathroom into a luxurious spa. This is also an especially good idea when you have guests coming over.
Your office: Whether you work from home, a cubicle, or your own office space, diffusing while you work can create your ideal atmosphere for doing your best job. Whether you need a motivating atmosphere to help you during the sluggish afternoon hours or want to create a tranquil environment on particularly stressful days, where you work is a great place to diffuse.
When traveling: Forget about stuffy atmospheres on road trips or stale air in hotel rooms. With a diffuser, you can transform whatever space you find yourself in—even when you aren’t at home. For the car, you can use a portable essential oil diffuser to refresh the air and keep things from getting too stuffy. You can also take a portable diffuser in your carry-on luggage. When you get to a hotel, start diffusing right away so you feel refreshed and more at home.
