Aroma Diffusers Guide To Essential Oils

What scents are Aroma Diffusers in

1. Lavender Essential Oil

Easily the most popular and widely used essential oil, lavender is the perfect relaxing scent to have in your aromatherapy stash. Our lavender essential oil is sourced from a cooperative of sustainably minded farmers who grow certified organic lavender from seed. We carry three different kinds of lavender essential oil, but our favorite go-to is the Lavender (Lavendula angustifolia).

2. Frankincense Essential Oil

Fresh and balsamic, frankincense is one of our favorites to diffuse around the home to freshen and clear the air. Often used for grounding during meditation, this essential oil is distilled from the resin or sap that comes from the bark of Boswellia cartarii. The aroma of frankincense can also be enjoyed by using the resin as incense, but for those who don’t want to deal with the smoke, the essential oil is the perfect alternative.

3. Peppermint Essential Oil

This minty fresh oil is a must-have for your aromatherapy collection. Its fresh scent uplifts the spirits and promotes focus. The passionate folks (and their ancestors) who distill our peppermint essential oil have been doing it for over a century, and their specialty nowadays is fair trade and organic certified spearmint and peppermint.

4. Rosemary Essential Oil

Rosemary is well-known for its stimulating and rejuvenating aroma. You’ll also find it in a variety of hair care products because it helps support healthy hair. Our certified organic rosemary essential oil is crafted by knowledgeable distillers whose recipes have been passed down from generation to generation. Note: rosemary has many different chemotypes; ours is cineole which is most commonly used for aromatherapy.

5. Sweet Orange Essential Oil

For those of you who love the scent of a freshly peeled orange, this oil is a must-have! Also known as the “happy oil,” sweet orange essential oil is perfectly citrusy and uplifting to help support a happy mood. Our sweet orange essential oil is certified organic and cold pressed here in the U.S. by skilled and dedicated distillers. 

Precautions when using Aroma Diffusers

When using an aroma diffuser, there are a few things you should keep in mind to ensure your safety.

First, make sure that the diffuser is placed on a level surface, away from any edges or sharp objects.

Second, be sure to read the instructions that come with your diffuser carefully. Some diffusers require you to add water before adding essential oils, while others may have a different process.

Third, when adding essential oils to your diffuser, always use a carrier oil such as fractionated coconut oil first. This will help to dilute the oil and prevent any skin irritation.

Fourth, startwith only a few drops of essential oil. You can always add more if needed, but it’s difficult to take away once the oil is in the diffuser.

Finally, be sure to turn off the diffuser and unplug it when you’re finished using it.

1. Choose the right diffuser for your needs. There are many different types of diffusers on the market, so it is important to select one that is appropriate for the size of your space and the desired intensity of scent.

2. Follow the diffuser manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to read the instructions that come with your diffuser carefully in order to get the best results and avoid any potential safety issues.

3. Use only pure essential oils. Synthetic fragrance oils should never be used in an aroma diffuser as they can potentially damage the unit or cause respiratory irritation.

4. Keep children and pets away from the diffuser. Aroma diffusers should be used out of reach of children and pets, as some essential oils can be harmful if ingested or inhaled in large quantities.

What are the main functions of Aroma Diffusers

Aroma diffusers have many different functions. They can be used to improve the smell of a room, to mask unpleasant odors, to boost energy levels or mood, or to create a relaxing atmosphere. Aroma diffusers can also be used for therapeutic purposes, such as relieving anxiety or improving sleep quality.

Aroma diffusers have many benefits and can be used for a variety of purposes. Some of the main functions of aroma diffusers include:

- Purifying the air: Aroma diffusers can help to purify the air in your home or office by releasing negative ions into the air. These ions attach themselves to airborne particles such as dust, pollen, and bacteria, which are then drawn down into the diffuser where they are trapped.

- Creating a relaxing atmosphere: Aroma diffusers can also be used to create a relaxing atmosphere. This is because certain essential oils have calming properties that can help to ease anxiety and stress.

- Improving focus and concentration: Diffusing essential oils can also help to improve focus and concentration. This is because some essential oils, such as rosemary and peppermint, have been shown to increase alertness and improve cognitive function.

- Boosting energy levels: If you’re feeling sluggish, diffusing some citrus essential oils can help to give you a much-needed energy boost.

Aroma diffusers serve many purposes, from masking unpleasant odors to creating a relaxing or invigorating atmosphere. They can also be used for medicinal purposes, such as alleviating congestion or headaches.
