ESSENTIAL OILS IN THE AIR



Oils have the power to Alter Mood. They do this via several means. Firstly, oils are capable of cleaning the receptor sites in the brain that have been clogged with chlorine, petrochemicals, tobacco residues etc. Once cleaned the body can now bind the proper neurotransmitters and hormones in these sites, and the body is returned to a balanced, happier state. Secondly the mere smell of an oil can promote a sense of well being by triggering positive past memory in the amygdala of the brain. Oils can also be used to enhance performance by waking up areas of the brain or to promote a sense of peace and inner calm by utilizing oils with more tranquilizing properties.

Diffusing Oils Increase Ozone And Negative Ions In the Home And Workplace, which inhibit bacteria growth. They also increase the body’s ability to uptake oxygen. The simple act of diffusing an oil into the air can increase a person’s immune function by up to 33%.

Diffusing Oils Will Destroy Existing Odors From Mold, Cigarettes, and Animals by fracturing the chemical chain and taking them out of the air. They will also remove DUST out of the air.

When Diffused Into The Home or Workplace They Can Be The Greatest Air Filtration and Harmony Boosting System In The World.


NOTE: A University in Japan experimented with diffusing different oils in the office. When they diffused lemon there were 54% fewer errors, with Jasmine there were 33% fewer errors and with lavender there were 20% fewer errors. When oils were diffused while studying and taking a test, test scores increased by as much as 50%




DIFFUSING OILS


*It is recommended that oils be diffused in one of several ways so as not to destroy the chemical constituents of the oils:

1) Using a cold air diffuser
-This diffuses oils efficiently and quickly into a larger space

2) Putting a few drops on a cotton ball and placing it in close vicinity of the person requiring the oil
-This is a more individual approach and only covers a small area

3) Placing several drops directly on hands, rubbing oils and clapping hands together
-This will only diffuse oil in to a small area but none the less is highly effective for individual use.


*Use a combination of antiseptic/ant-microbial oils diluted or straight onto cloth to clean major stains or disinfect. Add a few drops of pure oils straight into the vacuum bag, to clean and diffuse into the air while vacuuming.
