DIFFUSING CHAMOMILE

-

When you’re feeling stressed or irritable, add a few drops of chamomile essential oil to a diffuser and allow the soothing fragrance to permeate the air. Diffusion works by dispersing essential oil particles through the air. When we breathe them in, we breathe in the therapeuti­c properties, and these travel to the brain and other parts of the body. If you don’t have a diffuser, you can open the bottle of chamomile essential oil and inhale the fragrance. Or place a couple of drops on the palm of your hands, rub your hands together and inhale slowly for 30 seconds. You could also place drops on a tissue to inhale.
