A little guide to getting the most out of your Essential Oil Ritual.
Whether you’re starting the morning, settling into work or winding down for the evening, scent can be a simple way to shift the mood of your space and mark a small transition in your day.
How to use your Essential Oil Ritual
1. Add water
Fill the upper dish of your ceramic oil burner with water, leaving a little room at the top.
2. Add your essential oil
Add 3–5 drops of your chosen blend to the water. You can always start with less and add more depending on the size of your space and how strong you prefer the scent.
3. Light your tealight
Place an unscented tealight in the base of the burner and light it.
As the water gently warms, the essential oils will begin to diffuse through your space.
4. Let the scent settle in
Give it a few minutes. Rather than expecting the room to fill with fragrance immediately, allow the scent to slowly unfold.
Use this time however you like: while getting ready, working, reading, stretching, or simply taking a moment for yourself.
Choosing your blend
Different moments call for different things.
Stir into Light
A bright, uplifting blend for mornings, slow starts and moments when you need a little lift.
Tune into Stillness
A grounding blend for working, reading or whenever you want to feel a little more centred.
Drift into Softness
A softer blend made for slower evenings and winding down.
There doesn’t have to be a strict rule for when to use each one. Choose the scent that feels right for the moment.
A few things to keep in mind
- Always ensure there is enough water in the dish while the tealight is burning, and never allow it to burn completely dry.
- The ceramic burner will become warm during use, so allow it to cool fully before touching, moving or cleaning it.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from children, pets, drafts and flammable materials.
- Our essential oil blends are for external aromatic use only. Avoid direct contact with the skin and eyes, and store your oils in a cool, dry place.
Make it yours
There is no perfect way to create a ritual.
Five quiet minutes in the morning counts. So does lighting your burner while answering emails or letting a familiar scent fill the room before bed.
The ritual is simply the little pause you create around it.
For the stillness that finds you.
