9 Undeniable Reasons to Have an Essential Oil Diffuser

9 Undeniable Reasons to Have an Essential Oil Diffuser

Life is stressful and hectic, so when you come home, you expect to relax and be rejuvenated. Essential oils can help you do that; and the best way to use them is with a diffuser. Diffusers disperse the oils into the air, permeating the room and providing with you their benefits continuously. They’re the best way to help you live a better, healthier life.

So, here are nine perfect reasons you should have an essential oil diffuser:

9 Undeniable Reasons to Have an Essential Oil Diffuser

1. Sleep

Sleep prepares you to tackle tomorrow, but you can’t do that if you don’t sleep well. So, run your diffuser throughout the night with essential oils such as lavender to help you fall and stay asleep. You’ll wake up feeling refreshed and ready for another day.

2. Freshen the Air

Essential oils are known for their potent, fresh aroma. Just choose the scent you want to fill the air. Diffusers are also healthier alternatives to name brand air fresheners, which fill your home with harmful chemicals. Instead, essential oils bring health benefits and provide long-lasting aromas. Two birds, one stone.

3. Stay Healthy

Keep your home healthy and happy by diffusing essential oils such as eucalyptus, peppermint, and citrus. These oils purify the air by eating up bacteria, protecting your home from illness, and boosting your immune system.

4. Safer than Candles

Candles can pose a fire hazard if left unattended. Prevent these types of disasters by using an essential oil diffuser instead. And besides being safer, essential oils don’t use chemicals like candles, leaving you with a healthier atmosphere.

5. Mood Enhancing

While essential oils and aromatherapy are known for their relaxing scents, there are also several oils that can be used to boost your mood. Oils like lavender and citrus oils can be diffused to energize a room and give it life, such as an office to help you work, or a weight room to get you ready for a big workout.

6. Mental Focus

If you want to be more productive, diffusing essential oils in the air can improve your cognitive function. In fact, using oils like eucalyptus and peppermint regularly can actually help heal causes of poor mental focus.

7. Prevent Snoring

Another reason to leave a diffuser on overnight is to help your significant other not wake you with their snoring. Eucalyptus oil clears passageways and improves breathing, which will prevent snoring and allow you to sleep better.

8. Allergy Relief

It seems that everyone has some kind of allergy these days. Allergies can cause watering eyes, scratchy throats, congestion, among other things. But diffusing essential oils such as eucalyptus and peppermint can relieve these symptoms with their potent aromas and ability to clear sinuses.

9. Relieves Stress

One of the greatest benefits of a diffuser is creating a stress-free home. Menthol and lavender are two of the best oils to help you relax and decompress after a long day. You can make any room your escape with these oils and a diffuser.

5 Easy Homemade Potpourri and Natural Holiday Scent Recipes

One thing that most people can agree on when it comes to the holidays is that the smells are amazing. When you walk into a home and the holiday smells surround you, you’re instantly taken back to your favorite fall and winter memories. But did you know that some of those air fresheners and candles can be filled with toxins? Always choose the natural and safest options for you and your family to create that holiday atmosphere easily and naturally at home.

However, because you’re busy, don’t feel like you need to bake all day to make it happen. Instead, here are a few simple ways to cheat the process, to keep it easy, safe, and just as delicious.

Homemade Potpourri

For starters, make your own Simmering Potpourri. It’s quick and easy:

In a small saucepan add:

  • 1 cut up or sliced orange
  • 3 cinnamon sticks, broken in half (releases the fragrance better than the powder)
  • 1 cup of fresh cranberries
  • 1 – 2 teaspoons cloves (whole or ground)
  • 1 – 2 teaspoons nutmeg
  • 2 – 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
  • 1 – 2 teaspoons vanilla

Fill with water to about 1 inch below the rim (you could also use apple juice or cider). Place your pot on the stove and set it to simmer. Soon, your house will smell like the joyous season you love. And the bonus is you can enjoy it as a tea. Just sweeten as needed.

Other Natural Holiday Scent Ideas

Cinnamon: Place cinnamon sticks in little jars around the house. You can toss a couple cloves, rosemary, and even sprigs of fir to the mix for an added fragrance boost. Tie a gold or scarlet ribbon around the jar, and you’ll finish it with style.

Clove: Diffuse clove oil in an essential oil diffuser.

Coffee: Keep small dishes of coffee beans near your doors and walkways to keep a feeling of warmth and freshness.

Orange: As you use oranges in your meals, throw the peels in the garbage disposal for that citrus burst in the home. You can also add our Citrus-Infused Eucalyptus Oil to your diffuser with cloves for a balanced smell.

Setting the mood for the holidays with natural smells is easy. It’s about combining sweet with spicy and warm.

Here’s a Natural, Safe, Effective Ant Repellent You’ve Never Heard Of

Nobody likes to find out an army of ants has been attacking their kitchen. And everyone is always on the look out for the right repellent. Unfortunately, most of these repellents contain harmful and toxic ingredients. But here’s the good news: We have a solution that’s natural, safe and totally effective.

Ants navigate their lives through their sense of smell. They spread out, look for food and the ones that find it bring the report back to rest, letting them know where to go.

Eucalyptus oil, with its strong scent, drives away ants by leaving them confused and unable to find food. Here’s how you can use Eucalyptus oil to keep the ants away.

What You Need to Make Your Own Ant Repellent

Eucalyptus Oil ShowerMist: No kidding, you just need this one item, and those little pests will be gone. Can you believe it? And you can also use the oil for other health needs as well.

How to Get Rid of the Ants for Good

Instead of trying to kill each individual ant near your home, you want to prevent ants from even getting inside. So you need to figure out where the ants are getting into the house first. Usually, ants will form lines, so follow the line back to the start or entry point. However, this isn’t always the case. If there is no line of ants to follow, you will simply have to look carefully for their entrance.

Spray the area of entry generously, so the ants aren’t able to avoid or get around the oil. You also want to figure out what food source attracted the ants, and spray the area around it, along with any other areas that you frequently find them.

Now you have a pest-free home that smells great too. There’s nothing you won’t love about our Eucalyptus Oil ShowerMists.
