Getting Started with Essential Oils
Before diving into specific blends, it’s important to know how to use essential oils safely. Here are a few common methods for enjoying the benefits of essential oils in your home:
Diffusion
Using a diffuser is one of the most popular ways to enjoy essential oils. Add water to your diffuser and then follow guidelines for the number of drops to use based on the size of your diffuser (typically 3-5 drops per 100ml of water). This creates a fine mist that disperses the oils into the air, filling your space with delightful aromas.
Topical Application
Dilute essential oils with a carrier oil like coconut or almond oil before applying them to your skin. This is great for massages or targeted applications, but always perform a patch test first and follow recommended dilution ratios.
Inhalation
Add a few drops of essential oil to a bowl of hot water, cover your head with a towel, and inhale the steam. This method can be helpful for respiratory support and relaxation.
Sprays and Cleaners
Create DIY room sprays or natural cleaners by adding essential oils to water in a spray bottle. Shake well before use.
Shine Om Natural Founder, Rachel, shares her favourite way to use essential oils, “I love placing a few drops into the palms of my hands then rubbing my hands together to activate the essence. I then close my eyes and take three deep breaths. I find this calming and centering and brings in a beautiful moment of mindfulness into my day. I use this in my Kids Yoga classes and they absolutely love it!”
We always recommend patch testing on the skin for sensitivities before use. We do not recommend ingesting any essential oils unless advised by a certified medical professional.
We also love using our essential oil room sprays to create a vibe in our environment especially Nighty Night to help with sleep or Calm the Farm to reduce anxiety and bubbling energy.
