EO question please  

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
HI...

I have a Essential Oil burner. It has a small round glass top and a place to put a candle warmer underneath... how do I use it????

Please help me

Fill the top with water, if you do it with warm water then you won´t have to wait for the candle to heat up the water to get your hit!

Put up to 4 drops total EO in the water.

Light candle and put in its place.

Remember that just like noise, you can become accustomed to smell and it can fade into the background. Don´t be tempted to keep adding more EO when this happens, as they are still in the air even if you can´t smell them as strongly and you could end up giving yourself a sensitivity.

Also I would advise using only real EOs, not fragrance oils (you're probably doing that already). They're more expensive but they are actually therapeutic.

Just for the record, heating an EO kills it's healing properties. You need to diffuse an oil for this to not happen.
Think nebulizer style.

you can also cut little circles out of wool felt and dab E.O.'s on that and hide them around your space to smell it up.
