PART 3: HOW TO USE ESSENTIAL OILS
How do I use oils?
Anyone can use essential oils – no aromatherapy training needed. ? It’s simple! Just pick a way and go for it!
1. Aromatically
• Breathe it in, right out of the bottle
• Diffuse using an ultrasonic diffuser – just add water and a few drops of oils to get it started.
2. Topically
• Essential oils absorb rapidly into the skin, and most can be applied topically -right where you need it!
• Some oils are strong, and should be diluted with a carrier oil (most edible oils work well) before applying
SAFETY TIP: Do not ever use oils in the eyes or ears. If an essential oil gets in the eye, put a dab of a fatty carrier oil like olive, jojoba, almond, sesame or grapeseed oil around the outside of the eyelid. Do NOT use water.
3. Internally
• In water/drinks, cooking/baking, or even in capsules
• Be sure to use glass or stainless steel when drinking essential oils in water. Citrus oils especially can break down petrochemicals, so it’s important not to use a plastic cup.
SAFETY FIRST
• Please dilute your oils. Especially when using for the first time or with children.
• Do not put them in your eyes or ears.
• Follow directions on labels.
