Benefits Of The Young
Living Essential Oil Diffuser
There
are many benefits to diffusing
Essential Oils and making the investment in
an essential oil diffuser.
The easiest and simplest way of putting essential oils into the air for
inhalation is to use an aromatic diffuser.
A cold air essential oil diffuser uses
room-temperature air to blow the oil against a nebulizer. This breaks the
oils up into a micro-fine mist that is then dispersed into the air.
The oils, with their oxygenating molecules, will then remain suspended for
several hours to freshen and improve the quality of the air. The anti-viral,
anti-bacterial, and antiseptic properties of the oils kill bacteria and help
reduce fungus and mold.
Essential oils, when diffused through an essential
oil diffuser, have been found to reduce
the amount of airborne chemicals and metallics, as well as help to create greater
spiritual, physical, and emotional harmony.
Recommended Diffusing Time: While
essential oil diffusers can run continuously until they are out of oil, the greatest
therapeutic benefit is received by diffusing oils for only 10 minutes out of an
hour so that the olfactory system has time to recover before receiving more
oils. This also helps to conserve your oils. A simple way to do this is to use a
programmable timer that can automatically turn on your essential oil diffuser each hour for 10
minutes.
Oils for Air Purification: Diffusing essential oils in the home or work place is one of the best ways to
purify our environment. The anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and antiseptic
properties of the oils, along with the negative ions and oxygenating molecules
that are released when essential oils are diffused, all help to reduce
chemicals, bacteria, and metallics in the air.
Cinnamon bark, mountain savory, oregano, and Theives (a blend by Young Living
Essential Oils), were all tested by Weber State University and were shown to
kill 99.96% of the airborne bacteria present when diffused into the atmosphere.The information above is from the Reference Guide for Essential Oils by
Connie & Alan Higley, and from KID-Radio broadcast, March 5, 1996 with Lance
Richardson & Gary Young
Negative Ions: Negative ions are produced naturally by wind and rain. They help stimulate the
parasympathetic nervous system which controls rest, relaxation, digestion, and
sleep. If you live in a stressful environment, or an environment full of
electronic equipment (which produce positive ions), the diffusion of negatively
ionizing oils can help balance the ions in the air and produce a more stress
free environment.
Oils that ionize negatively when diffused include: bergamot, cedarwood,
citronella, eucalyptus (citriodora), grapefruit, lavandin, lavender, lemon,
lemongrass, mandarin, orange, patchouli, & sandalwood.
Positive Ions: Positive ions are produced by electronic equipment and are typically found in
man-made environments. They help stimulate the sympathetic nervous system,
necessary for recovering, strengthening, and energizing. If you live in an
environment with an over-abundance of negative ions, such as in the country or
by the ocean, you may benefit greatly by diffusing positively ionizing oils.
Oils that ionize positively when diffused into the air include: cajeput, clove,
cypress, eucalyptus, frankincense, helichrysum, juniper, marjoram, melaleuca
(quinquenervia), palmarosa, pine, ravensara, rosemary, thyme, & ylang ylang.
Oils for the Season: Fall/Winter: Fall and winter
create an earthy, heavy scent, rich with the traditions and
memories of the holidays.
Oils that work well during this time include: cinnamon bark, pine, cedar,
cedarwood, fir, frankincense, juniper, myrrh, orange, mandarin, sandalwood,
vetiver, nutmeg, oregano, spruce, tangerine, & thyme.
Oils for the Season: Spring/Summer: Spring and summer
create a light, airy scent, full of life, energy, and
possibly a hint of romance!
Oils that work well during this time include: cardamom, citronella, coriander,
eucalyptus, geranium, ginger, grapefruit, jasmine, lemon, lime, palmarosa,
peppermint, rose, spearmint, & ylang ylang.
