HOW TO USE:
- Dilution in a carrier oil: For topical application, a safe dilution is 2% in a 10ml carrier oil bottle. This translates to approximately 4 drops of the essential oil blend in 10ml of a suitable carrier oil, such as jojoba oil or sweet almond oil.
- Diffuser: Add 4-8 drops of the SLEEP blend to a diffuser filled with water. Turn on the diffuser and let the aroma disperse throughout the room. This method allows you to enjoy the benefits of the blend by inhaling the aromatic molecules.
- Bath: Add 4-8 drops of the SLEEP blend to a warm bath and agitate the water to disperse the oils. Immerse yourself in the bath and relax as the aroma envelops you, promoting a sense of tranquility and rejuvenation.
- Shower: Before showering, add 4-8 drops of the SLEEP blend to the corners of the shower away from direct water flow. As the steam rises, it will carry the aromatic molecules, creating a soothing and uplifting experience.
