Best Essential Oil Blends To Diffuse

If you’ve been around for awhile you know that I love essential oils and use them for different health-related reasons (Essential Oils + How I Use Them). I wasn’t always a believer, but darn it – they work! I was first introduced to them as a treatment for my migraines and the rest is history! One way I use oils is diffusing them in my house to create delicious smelling spaces. When I first began diffusing oils, I would only use one bottle and my scents were pretty straightforward (lemon, lime, peppermint, etc). Now, I’m an oil blending fanatic! Today I’m sharing the best essential oil blends to diffuse.

Best Essential Oil Blends To Diffuse

If you’re new to oils, you might be wondering ‘How does oil diffusing work?’ First things first – you need a diffuser. Oil diffusers come in all shapes and sizes (and price ranges), but I’ve linked the one I use because it’s compact and affordable. I have 2 in my home! Once you have your diffuser, you will use a total of 4-8 drops of essential oils in your diffuser with distilled water. Pretty simple right? Today I’m sharing my favorite essential oil blends to diffuse. Some I’ve discovered on my own, while others I’ve found thanks to Pinterest and my mom (the oil queen) 🙂

My top oils to diffuse while working: Peppermint, Wild Orange, Lime, Lemon

For stress: Lavender

For best results, just make sure you wipe down your diffuser about once per week to clean out any buildup or residue. I use rubbing alcohol and then flush it with plain distilled water and that seems to work really well.
