My Go To Diffuser Blend

One of my very favorite tools in my Wellness tool belt is essential oils. I think that in 2020 most of us are familiar with EO’s but just in case, they are highly concentrated liquid derived from plants. The benefits range from immune support, easing sore muscles, and calming and soothing the mind.

I personally only love to use oils topically or aromatically and prefer not to ingest - but some brands are safe for oral consumption- please just make sure that if you are ingesting oils that they are pure and safe!

Now onto my current favorite diffuser blend. As soon as the weather starts to change and we head into cold and flu season, I start diffusing Eucalyptus. A few weeks ago I was feeling a like I wanted a little variety and grabbed a few oils on my nightstand and mixed them all up. After a few minutes of diffusing my boyfriend looked at me and commented about how nice the smell was!

He usually doesn’t notice things like that, so I had a feeling it was a winner!

Here’s a little about the oils that go into this blend and why it is a great blend for 2020 and the current season we are in!

Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus is an antimicrobial oil that is used to help breathing, asthma, and fight off the common cold and respiratory ailments. It is also a great immune stimulator. I find that it helps me stay healthy BUT also avoids the dryness that comes with the use of heat in the house during the cold months.

Pink Pepper

Another favorite oil of mine is Pink Pepper. For the longest time it was my go to for dry brushing, if you are looking for a sweet scent that gives you all over body tingles this is the oil for you! Then I stumbled upon the amazing health benefits. Pink Pepper is an antiviral, and great for respiratory health as well. It is a very uplifting oil, so be mindful of how this effects you if you are diffusing at night!

Lavender

The last oil in this blend is lavender. Lavender is a great relaxing oil, and is used to treat anxiety, and promote sleep. Since I was diffusing this blend at night I thought it would be a great counterbalance to the stimulating Pink Pepper.

In my diffuser I blend 5 drops each of Eucalyptus and Pink Pepper + 3 drops of Lavender. Depending on the size of the room or diffuser you are using you may want to adjust.

The oils I use are by doTerra, but any 100% Essential Oil brand would work!
