Aromatherapy diffuser blends are great to use during the Holidays to emit both a seasonal ambiance and to combat any seasonal germs. In addition, given the right aromatherapy diffuser blend, you can either encourage a social atmosphere or ignite some romance! Here are three simple Holiday aromatherapy diffuser recipes to prepare for yourself or the next family gathering.
Note: Please consult your aromatherapy diffuser manufacturer’s guidelines for use before using any of the following aromatherapy blends. Each diffuser has specific instructions for use.
In addition, if you plan to diffuser an aromatherapy blend in a public space, or where others are present, check to make sure that no one is pregnant, there are no babies and young children in the vicinity, there are no people aged 65 or over, or there is someone with a contra-indicated medical condition for essential oil use. These groups of people may have specific needs in relation to essential oil use. If in doubt, consult a certified aromatherapist.
The following aromatherapy blends are intended for specific use with an aromatherapy diffuser; do not apply to the skin or use in any other way.
