Preparing A Diffuser
If you want to enjoy your essential oil blends via a diffuser, you will need to do a couple of things.
First, make sure you multiply your blend roughly by four. You should have around 2 drops going into your diffuser.
Measure out the drops carefully, adding them to a bottle as you go. When everything is measured out, mix the essential oils thoroughly.
If you are using a bottle, roll the bottle between your hands. If you are using something else, try stirring it to mix the oils.
Once mixed, add the mixture to the diffuser you are using, and add as much as you need. This will vary depending on the type of diffuser you have, so be sure to take a look at the instructions.
Once this is done, all you need to do is start up your diffuser, and within minutes you will reap the benefits.
