What with losing my job, the meagerness of funds especially right after the holidays and the general grayness and darkness of January, what is there to uplift my spirits?
Well, one thing that helps me feel better is this little essential oil burner. One of our kids gave it to us for Christmas a year ago … and oh, how we have used it! It is two pieces, the bowl on top and the base which holds a tealight for heat. Made of some stone, perhaps alabaster(?), it is rather translucent.
Whether we’re burning peppermint oil, lemongrass oil, lavender or some combination of oils, it puts out the loveliest fragrances …. and it costs us virtually nothing; essential oils (which we had in the cupboard anyway) and cheap little tealights.
Who could imagine that such a simple thing could give me such pleasure?

September 14, 2011 ByScott Butterhill (New Jersey) - See all my reviewsThis review is from: French Lavender 100% Pure Therapeutic Grade Essential Oil- 10 ml (Health and Beauty)This is the most beautiful "soft" fragrance of Lavender I have ever experienced. I actually prefer it to the traditional Bulgarian Lavender. I love using it as an addition to potpourris, candles and room sprays. A couple months ago I hurt my big toe on my left foot and the toe nail began swelling with the obvious indications of what would become an ingrown toe nail. After that I remembered I had the French Lavender oil and had read it has various healing properties from antifungal, antiviral, to antimicrobial. I applied one drop before bed for 3 nights and by the weekend the infection cleared and has been cured ever since. Great product!

March 11, 2009 ByAuburnTygr (Central Alabama) - See all my reviewsThis review is from: Conair My Aromatherapy with Oil (Colors May Vary) (Electronics)Just purchased and began using one of these. Followed the directions in the user manual, added the recommended drops of essential oil but the diffuser adds little or no scent to the room. It drains batteries quickly as the fan runs continuously unless you manually shut it off. I have better results adding a few drops of essential oil to a cotton ball and applying to the light bulbs in my lamps. The heat from the lamp activates the scented oil and infuses the room quickly-a cheaper method with much better results.

I placed my own drops of essential oil on the pad and it worked for a few minutes and then the fan stopped going around even though the light is on. I'm going to send it back.

You can use your aromatherapy diffuser to fill your home with wonderfully therapeutic aromas and fragrances and several different methods are available for dispersing the essential oils into your rooms. In fact, you can use candles, tissues, cotton balls, and diffusing devices in order to completely introduce aromatherapy into your lifestyle.
Here are some diffusing methods and devices that you can use for home aromatherapy:
Steam Diffusion
Steam diffusion is probably the most popular method used for diffusing essential oils. It is very easy to perform because all you will need to do is to prepare a few drops of organic oil and a bowl of boiling water.
Boil at least two cups of water and pour it into a bowl. Add up to ten drops of organic oil into the boiling water. Watch as its steam heats the oils and causes them to quickly evaporate into the room.
The best benefit from using steam as an essential oil diffuser is that this method can quickly release organic oils into the room’s air. However, the aroma coming from the steam is not long-lasting because the heat from boiling water can destroy certain properties of organic oils. Hence, the therapeutic benefits from steam diffusion are less than those offered by cold-diffusion methods.
Candle Diffusion
Candle diffusion is also a convenient way to extract the aroma from essential oils. It can be used anywhere because all you need is a candle to diffuse therapeutic aromas into any given place.
Candle diffusion is performed by lighting a candle and leaving it to burn for about five minutes. After extinguishing the candle, you can place one drop of essential oil onto the melted wax, and relight the candle. A candle can be utilized as a safe essential oil diffuser as long as you use it with utmost care.
Tissue Diffusion
You can also use a simple tissue to diffuse the essence of organic oils. Add three to four drops of oil onto a tissue and place it somewhere near you. This method is good because they are easily transportable and they can be used anywhere. However, tissues do not work as very efficient diffusers because they do not emit a lot of aroma into a room.
Lamp Rings And Clay Pots
Lamp rings and clay pots are both popular devices used for home aromatherapy. Lamp rings are good diffusers because they are relatively inexpensive. They contain terracotta rings that can be placed directly into light bulbs. Their grooved lips hold the essential oils and the heat coming from light bulbs gently diffuses oil into the room.
Meanwhile, clay pots are devices that resemble terracotta pots. They have small openings where essential oils can be added. The organic oils that they contain permeate through the pot and freely diffuse out into rooms. A clay pot is a popular essential oil diffuser because it is easy to use, it is inexpensive and it does not require the use of batteries and electricity.
With these methods, you can easily maximize the therapeutic benefits you are getting from your preferred essential oil diffuser.
