32 Essential Oil Recipes for Your Diffuser
A good diffuser is one that won’t heat up the oils and therefore destroy the essential oil properties. Make sure you follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for diffusing oils. Here are a few guidelines to keep in mind:
- know how much water should be added to the diffuser (there is usually a water line)
- how many drops of essential oils are recommended for use for each diffusing
- how long should I diffuse my blends
Each oil has it’s own suggested guidelines on how to use and how long to diffuse. We won’t go into detail with that here for each oil, but we generally diffuse our blends throughout the day.
Each one of these blends is added to a free printable download and has been segmented into appropriate seasons. Print these out for easy reference!

Where do I get Essential Oils?
Are you wondering where to get essential oils? You can find them at almost every store these days, but not all essential oils are made the same. I exclusively use Young Living essential oils and love the value they create and time they spend in producing these products. Not all essential oils are created equal. Make sure you are using 100% Pure Essential Oils, and do your research before making any purchases.
