Place one to two drops of oil on your hands, rub the palms together, cup your hands over your nose, and breathe deeply to experience the emotional benefits of the oil.
Diffuse your essential oil of choice during your morning meditation or yoga practice.

Use calming, soothing, and grounding essential oils during your next massage to promote relaxation and enhanced emotions.

Add a few drops of a relaxing, grounding, or soothing essential oil to a warm bath.
Place a few drops of an essential oil on the floor during your shower (away from the water path), and breathe deeply.

Spritz calming essential oils over your pillows and bedding to help promote peaceful thoughts as you go to sleep.
