How To

There are numerous ways to reap the many benefits of essential oils.
We’ve included seven of the most common and convenient methods to get the most out of your Lively Living products:

Diffusing: When essential oils are dispersed into the atmosphere in their purest form, they’re easily inhaled and absorbed for maximum health benefits. Lively Living’s aroma diffuser technology allows rapid ultrasonic vibrations to create negative ions which purify the air by removing dust, germs, and bacteria. Simply add a few drops of your favourite essential oil to uplift, calm, and enhance the mood of any room. A Lively Livings ultrasonic diffuser is the most efficient way to maximise essential oils due to the high frequency vibrations of the ultrasonic waves they produce.

Massage: Massage therapy and aromatherapy go hand-in-hand. By combining a few drops of essential oil with a carrier oil you can take your body massage to the next level with the added benefits of aromatics. But did you know the soles of your feet are the best part of your body to massage with essential oils? They contain larger pores than the rest of the body, meaning the oil’s compounds can be absorbed into your bloodstream more efficiently. The soles of your feet – along with your palms also don’t have sebaceous glands, meaning they don’t produce sebum, a potential barrier to oil absorption.

Bathe: Soak and soothe your cares away, relax and restore tired muscles, or create your own spa experience at home. Add a few drops of essential oil to bath salts, mix well, and stir into your bath water for an uplifting mood enhancer, to increase circulation, help release toxins, or simply to enjoy the luxury of a warm, aromatic bath. Different oils have different properties, so select the right blend for your emotional or physiological wellbeing and bliss out with a long bath.

Self-Care: The diversity of essential oils means they can be transformed into everything from decadent hand creams, to skin-nourishing moisturisers, exfoliators and foot scrubs, and hydrating treatments to leave your hair conditioned, glossy, and gloriously scented. Self-care means taking time out for yourself, both physically and mentally. It’s something we all deserve, but sometimes rarely do! Essential oils provide an easy way to make self-care the daily habit it should be, rather than an occasional guilty pleasure.

Roll-a-Bottles: The perfect travel companion, or on-the-go solution. Roll-a-bottles are ideal for creating your own blends, or carrying your favourite oils with you everywhere you go. Slip into your handbag, luggage, school bag, or pocket for a portable burst of aromatherapy anytime, anywhere. For emotional or preventative wellbeing, simply roll onto your wrists, temples, or back of the neck and let the oils work their magic.

Cooking: Bring a whole new dimension of health, wellbeing, and flavour to your cooking with essential oils. A little goes a long way when it comes to using oils in the kitchen! They’re a 100% natural and economical way to add a powerful punch of flavour to your baked goods, icing, marinades, sauces, and dressings, or try adding a drop or two of lemon, peppermint, or orange to your beverages for a refreshing summer soother, or a warming winter tonic.

Cleaning: If you’re seeking an alternative to chemical-laden cleaning products to use in your household, essential oils are your answer to low-tox living. With a few drops of essential oil added to a spray bottle with vinegar or water, you’ve got a 100% natural cleaning solution that will act as a multi-purpose antibacterial cleanser to tackle every surface in your house from the kitchen to the bathroom. With powerful properties in every drop, Lively Living essential oils are not only economical, they’re environmentally-friendly substitutes for everyday products and can be turned into aromatic dishwashing tablets, laundry detergent (perfect for sensitive skin), window cleaner, toilet cleaner, and more.
