A fresh smelling environment is so much better than a stale or stinky environment.  Wouldn’t you like to know that when you choose to “clean” up the smell in your surroundings that you were breathing in natural scents, rather than scents that are full of toxins and chemicals? There is a way to freshen the air naturally, and to be safe for you breath and to be Eco-friendly for the environment.

Using Young Living’s therapeutic grade essential oils in your home environment is a way to add oxygen and cut down on overgrowth of unwanted microbes such as fungus (mold and mildew), pathogenic viruses, and bacteria.

The best way to address unwanted things in your air is by using a TheraPro Premium Diffuser with therapeutic-grade Young Living essential oils undiluted. (Read more about diffusing)

The TheraPro Diffuser puts a micro-fine mist of the essential oil into the air and allows the mist to permeate your room(s). Only cool air is used. Never use heat – such as a candle, burner, or a light bulb ring on your therapeutic oils. Heat destroys the therapeutic qualities of the essential oil – it fractures the molecules.

Therapeutic-grade essential oils also have well-documented antiviral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties – to further improve indoor air quality.

Essential Oils and the Seasons

During different times of the year certain scents benefit us emotionally, as well as, addressing issues that can occur more frequently during each season.

Aromatherapy During the Winter

During the winter months there is usually a higher amount of air pollution and bacteria in the air than at other times due to an increase in the closed doors and windows and the fact that cold air keeps air pollution closer to the ground. This increased pollution can lead to respiratory issues for some. The anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and antiseptic properties of essential oils, along with the negative ions and oxygenating molecules, which are released when essential oils are diffused, all help to reduce bacteria in the air.

Some powerful and relatively inexpensive essential oils that address unwanted pathogens are:

Singles:

• Cinnamon*
• Clove*
• Lemon
• Eucalyptus
• Lavender
• And the pine oils

Blends:

• Thieves
• Purification
• Citrus Fresh (C.F. is not for mold)

*Note: cinnamon and clove are extremely powerful and should only be diffused for very short periods of time, 10 minutes or less if they are the only oils being diffused. It is best to add 2-6 drops of clove or cinnamon with 15-40 drops of another essential oil to help reduce the intensity. Never dilute essential oils with a carrier oil in a nebulizer diffuser as this could harm your diffuser.
