Everyday Uses For Aromatherapy
Are you are an aromatherapy fan who loves to buy candles, sachets, and essential oils? You may find it hard to resist rest and relaxing inducing formulas. It is time to expand your aromatherapy horizons. There is much more to aromatherapy than you may have imagined. There is a plethora of vibrant, life enhancing vital experiences awaiting your discovery. You can make aromatherapy a constant part of your day.
One way to expand the use of aromatherapy is to spray a few pages of your planner with your favorite essential oils. Be sure to dilute the oils so they will not ruin the paper in your planner. Every time you open your planner to note another challenging assignment, you will trigger the release of a surge of refreshing, vitalizing fragrance. It will give you inspiration and strengthen your resolve. You can also add essential oils to notepads and even memos.
For many women, it is a part of their daily routine to include a spray of their favorite fragrance on their wrists or behind their ears. You can also spritz the fragrance behind your knees and your favorite aroma will be released during those high pressure times when your body temperature begins to heat up. You can also comb a light spray of your favorite fragrance through your hair. It will make you feel empowered and emboldened even when you have to make your most challenging presentations.
You can incorporate aromatherapy into your laundry routine by adding lemon and chamomile to the final rinse. You can also make your own dryer sheets infusing them with your favorite scent. Use an old sock or scrap of cloth and place a few drops of oil on it before you toss it in the dryer. Lemon and chamomile will keep your laundry smelling fresh, while lavender and chamomile will make your pillows and bed linens fragrant with relaxing aroma.
Diffusers are an excellent way to disseminate fragrant oils, especially in the bathroom and bedroom. Diffusers come in a variety of styles and colors and can be used with the fragrance of your choice. There are even aromatherapy fountains available. Many are small enough to sit on your nightstand or desk allowing you to enjoy the fragrant scent all day long.
Aromatherapy also allows you to give up your gnarly old gym towel and wet wipes. Create your own wipes using essential oils. When you extract or distill your own natural oils, save the hydrosols. Soak a few inexpensive terrycloth “bar towels” in your hydrosols; then, you can freeze them for use at a later time.
As you can see the possibilities and uses of aromatherapy are completely endless. It is fun to experiment and keep trying new aromatherapy uses.
