Diffuser Blends for Mom

There are so many benefits of using essential oils for moms. As a mom, I know that sometimes we just want to relax after a long day, but it's hard to make the time to do it. Good thing is that diffusing doesn't take long to get started and you only need oils, water and your diffuser!

Pick a recipe below and add to diffuser with recommended water for your diffuser tank. Read more about diffusing essential oils. I like to use a 100-200 ml water tank diffuser but you can use whatever size you prefer, adjust the drops as desired.

 1. Happy Mother's Day Diffuser Blend

This is a rich and soothing oil blend thanks to patchouli and ylang ylang. The orange essential oil brings in a light and refreshing touch. This could also be made into an aromatherapy inhaler.

  • 4 drops Patchouli
  • 4 drops Orange
  • 2 drops Ylang Ylang

*If you find the patchouli oil too strong, you can decrease the drops of patchouli and increase the drops of orange.

  • 3 drops Orange
  • 2 drops Arborvitae

Safety Guidelines for Essential Oils

Diffuse 30 minutes to 1 hour at a time, read more about how long to diffuse oils.

It is best not to apply undiluted essential oils onto the skin. When using essential oils topically on the skin, be sure to dilute with a carrier oil like jojoba oil or sweet almond oil.

Using essential oils can improve a person’s emotional, physical, and mental state. For best results, make sure you use pure essential oils and learn how to use them properly.

People can have different responses to essential oils, you may find what works for one person, doesn't work for you. You can learn more here about what to do when essential oils don't work.
