What Smells So Good? | Diffusing 101-Young Living Essential Oils

I love my diffuser, LOVE it! And, in fact, I'm ordering a few more today! All of your oils can be diffused, singles or blends or mixed together to create just what you need. the YL diffuser creates a cool micro-fine vapor that is quickly dispersed throughout the room. 

Research indicates that when essential oils are diffused, they can increase atmospheric oxygen & provide negative ions, which in turn inhibits bacterial growth. Because of their ionizing action, essential oils have the ability to break down potentially harmful chemicals and render them nontoxic. And, of course, they smell delicious!!! I have not lit a candle in months!  {Don't even get me started on why that's great news! ;) -When you burn candles you are burning whatever is in the wax into the air that you breathe. If you are burning candles that are full of petroleum by-products, chemicals and waste products then you are breathing this in and causing more of a state of internal toxicity in the body. - See more at: http://healthywildandfree.com/breathing-toxic-fumes-candles/#sthash.58uoNMZE.dpuf}

So, What's in your diffuser? 

Right now, it's 6:15 a.m. and I've just added some more Thieves and Ravintsara to the one in the boys' room so that hopefully, they wake up refreshed and snot-free! Thieves kills 99.6% of airborne bacteria! I'm committed to using this daily! I also love to add Orange, Lemon or Peppermint to Thieves. 

Other favorite Combos:

Allergy Bomb: Lemon, Lavender & Peppermint- aside from just smelling Great, it will stop the itchy, watery eyes and throat, and sneezing in under 5 minutes!

Freshen and Neutralize the Air: Purification--gets out the toughest odors! I have 2 boys, 1 husband ;), and the stinkiest dog known to man- between them, their sports, hunting, work and play clothes and gear: imagine the odors I must have! I love to add citrus cents to this as well. 

Blues Buster: I love Joy! I use a lot of it, and my kids remind me if I forget! I also like it diffused, but it's pretty flowery, so the fellas don't love it. Instead, I diffuse a lot of Stress away... {Refer to above paragraph-- Stress Away is a daily requirement} Another to try is Lavender, Orange and Frankincense. 

For school: I use Lemon, Cedarwood and Vetiver. Helps with calming, focus, and retention. {Forrest gets an extra dose of Vetiver and Cedarwood on his wrists... this has changed our lives!} Sometimes we switch it up and use Lemon, Rosemary and Basil. Smells better and has similar results!

Young Living's Essential Oil Diffuser gives you the benefit of diffusing essential oils throughout your home or office. Diffusing is a simple and effective way to use essential oils. With Young Living's innovative air pump, oils are dispersed in a micro-fine vapor, allowing them to remain suspended in the air for extended periods of time. The diffuser disperses the oils without heating them so they retain their therapeutic benefits. When inhaled, the oils are easily absorbed through the lungs. Depending on the oil used, diffusing can cleanse the air of odor, calm overactive children, and support respiration.*

OverviewYoung Living’s newly designed Home Diffuser combines the multifunctional benefits of a humidifier, air purifier, atomizer, and aromatherapy diffuser into one easy-to-use product. Its ultrasonic technology breaks the mixture of essential oils and water into millions of micro-particles and disperses it into the air, activating the powerful plant constituents found in Young Living essential oils. Its light-weight design allows you to enjoy these benefits in any room of your home and comes with a convenient, automatic shut-off feature (see Operating Instructions).
