Ways to use.
There are many ways to use essential oils. But first you need to know the ways they are received into your system.
Inhalation - just smelling them from the bottle, using an oil burner, in hot water, or by placing some on a piece of cloth.
Absorption - Your skin will absorb the oils very easily. This can be done by placing a few drops of essential oil in your bath water, or through massaging it into your skin, after the essential oils have been mixed with a carrier oil such as sweet almond oil.
NOTE: When using essential oils in the bath, put them in while running the water and before getting in make sure the essential oils are mixed in the bath water. If there are hot spots' of oil in the water your skin could become irritated.
If you have trouble sleeping try placing a blend of Marjoram, Geranium, and Lavender essential oils, in your bath water. Then, using the same blend on a piece of cloth placed inside your pillow case. Remember, essential oils are very concentrated, only a couple of drops are needed for each application.
