Why You Should Use an Essential Oil Diffuser
There are many reasons why using an essential oil diffuser can be beneficial to your health. Let’s give you 10 of them.
1. Live a Happier Life
What better way to use essential oil diffusers then to elevate your mood? The world can be a pretty rough place, and sometimes it is tough to smile through it all. But if you truly feel it in your soul, it becomes a lot easier. And when you smile, you automatically feel better. Try using essential oils that lift your mood and fight depression, such as sandalwood, jasmine, ylang-ylang, or sweet orange.
2. Enjoy a Healthier Lifestyle
There are plenty of illnesses that can go around in the cooler months, but sickness never really takes a vacation; even in the summer. No matter what the season, using essential diffusers can keep you from picking up an unwanted bug. Many essential oils are antiviral, antibacterial, and antimicrobial, so keeping the air full of them can keep you healthy all year. Good choices include tea tree, rosemary, grapefruit, and thyme.
3. Sleep Better at Night
By now, most people have heard that essential oil diffusers can be used to help lead you into a peaceful slumber. While it’s true that there are plenty of medications that have the same effect, using essential oils is a natural way to do it without any side effects. And nothing can help your overall health and well-being than a good night’s sleep. Try using chamomile, clary sage, lavender, or yarrow.
4. Cut Through the Congestion
You might be coughing from bronchitis, or allergies. You could be congested from a sinus infection, or the common cold. When asthma and other breathing disorders try to take you down, fight back with essential oils. When it comes to finding a bit of breathing relief, this is where essential oil diffusers truly shine. To dissolve congestion and clear the air, use peppermint, eucalyptus, elemi, or rosemary.
5. Cool Down Now
Believe it or not, certain essential oils evoke a feeling of coolness that might inspire you to turn down your air conditioner. It’s the cool and minty scents that can bring a level of relaxation and build your inspiration like peppermint, spearmint, wintergreen, and eucalyptus.
6. A Mind for Clarity
When you find that your mind is overrun to the point of muddled confusion, a few drops of the right scent in your essential oil diffuser is all you need to find clarity. You’ll find hormonal balance, enhanced memory, and improved cognitive function. Oils that can pick you up when you feel down and bring you back to center are pine, lemon, nutmeg, and cinnamon.
7. Forget the Flame
The biggest reason for choosing essential oil diffusers is their absolute safety. Candles that have an open flame can cause burns (and worse), and incense can be overwhelming and cloying. Essential oil diffusers have no flame and can give you a bounty of benefits from relaxation to stimulation. And best of all, you can choose any oil you feel like at any time.
8. Bye, Bye Bugs
The most natural way to repel insects is with essential oils. Forget the cans of spray that are full of chemicals or ingredients that can choke you out before it chokes the bugs out. You can use essential oil diffusers on the patio, in the kitchen, or in any room of the house to repel mosquitoes, fruit flies, moths, or even house flies. Yuck. The best oils include clove, lemongrass, citronella, or cedarwood.
9. Put Pain in its Place
If you suffer from migraines, you know that it can be tough to swallow a pill when you have the blinding pain and nausea that come along with it. Essential oil diffusers can help bring relief by just breathing in. Other ailments that benefit from essential oil inhalation include joint pain, arthritis, muscle aches, and inflammation. Try ginger, bergamot, clary sage, or lavender to find relief.
10. An Investment in your Health
The list of benefits that come from using essential oil diffusers is endless. From your mind, to body, to soul, essential oils know no limit in promoting health and well-being in the most natural way possible. And all you have to do is fill it up and let it help you with whatever you need. There’s no better investment than one in your personal health.
I’m going to start using essential oils for mosquitos.

I’d love to try it for something other than a peaceful sleep. Thanks.
Its by far the best diffuser i ever have. will be back to buy more.
Diffusing is one of the quickest ways to get these oils into your bloodstream. Same reason people smoke, except better results. 🙂
I’ve been using an Organic Aromas Diffuser for a while now and I’ve never used one that I like more! I love that you don’t need water! And I love the oils too! AMAZING!
Yeah, I’m not supposed to burn candles in my apartment, so I bought my first bottles of essential oils this week to use during the holidays instead of candles (which are probably filled with toxic chemicals anyway!).
Like the tip about using it to get rid of bugs too.
It’s just such a nice clean beautiful way to live. For all of the reasons above and more I would just love this gorgeous diffuser

I love the idea of bathing in tea tree oil. It just helps me so much!
I would use them just for the bug repellency alone. Of course I would use other oils for their benefits.
We have used all types of incense, beads,,candles and other low cost diffusers. Our new Radiance nebulizer creates a great and relaxing atmosphere in our home and is by far the best one we’ve owned! We are amazed by how well it works! Looking to add more for other areas of our home.
Great tips! I love it for relieving congestion and helping with sinus issues.
