What Essential Oil Inhalers Are, And Why You Should Use Them

March 14, 2018

Find out why and how to use essential oil inhalers for therapeutic purposes! These handy tools utilize diffuser blends for aromatherapy. Read more at Naturally Free Life! #aromatherapy #essentialoilrecipes #essentialoilstherapy

I use essential oil inhalers frequently in my daily life. In fact, they may just be the one means of therapeutic use that I grab most often. They are convenient, easy to transport, incapable of creating a mess, and incredibly versatile.

Why to use them:

  • They are portable and can travel with you in a pocket or purse.
  • The smell is contained and only affects you so they are great for crowded areas such as airports, malls, and large family gatherings.
  • They are just a grab away, if you need a moment of tranquility, grab your Peace blend, give it a sniff, take a deep breath, and keep on with your activity.
  • They are safe to use in homes with newborns or others who are too sensitive for normal essential oil use, as the scent does not disperse.

When to use them:

  • When you can’t use a diffuser.
  • In crowded, public places.
  • When you don’t have access to your full stash.
  • When you just need a quick boost.

Favorite ways to use them:

  • Keeping a peace blend in my car for when I’m driving, which causes me anxiety, or when I’m driving to something that could cause me anxiety.
  • Throwing some in my purse for whatever therapeutic need I might think could happen that day.
  • Keeping them in the diaper bag and my toddler’s room for tantrums, outbursts, and moments that need calming. She knows what to do when I hand her the stick, and often asks me to smell along with her.

How to use them:

  • All you need to do once you have your inhalers is drop about 10 drops of essential oil in the proper ratios onto the cotton wick, insert, close the cap, and label the blend.
  • When you want to use the blend, unscrew the top, take in a few deep breaths of the oils, and close it back up.

Where to find them:

Amazon is great place to grab some of these awesome tools!

Recipes to try:

Peace

  • 4 drops Frankincense
  • 3 drops Bergamot
  • 3 drops Patchouli

Focus

  • 5 drops Rosemary
  • 3 drops Mandarin
  • 2 drops Lime

Breathe 

  • 4 drops Rosalina
  • 3 drops Frankincense
  • 3 drops Pine

Relax

  • 5 drops Lavender
  • 5 drops Roman chamomile

Dragon Tamer

  • 3 drops Clary Sage
  • 3 drops Bergamot
  • 3 drops Patchouli

Anti-Nausea

  • 4 drops Peppermint
  • 3 drops Ginger
  • 3 drops Lemon

Seasonal Support

  • 4 drops Cedarwood
  • 3 drops Lavender
  • 3 drops Rosalina

Really, you can convert any diffuser blend into an inhaler blend by changing the ratios of drops until it is about ten total!

As with any essential oil, educate yourself. Do your research on the company you have chosen; call them and ask questions, research their farms, distillation processes, GC/MS reports, organic practices, and other data. Essential oils are powerful and must be treated as such. Please, keep them in a locked cabinet far away from children. 

Have you ever used essential oil inhalers?

  • Good news! I survived today.
And then were no tears, at least not from me. Post baby is such a tender time, as a new mama has to get used to the new normal, a new body, and a very demanding little human that leaves almost no time for anything else. There are so many emotions wrapped up in these moments. But, the highlight of my day was when my two year crawled next to our new baby and said "love you baby brother." And that made it all worth it. A perfect, unplanned, unstaged moment. 💙❤️

  • What are your best two year old + newborn strategies? Little man's preferred hours of sleeping are 6-9 am. 😴 Sister wakes up at 7. 🕖 Today is my first day solo parenting these two.
 Cheers to motherhood! 🥂#blessedmama #exhaustedmama .

  • Herbal epsom salt baths are a great postpartum healing tool. 🌹Warm water + healing herbs + magnesium salts + relaxation. 🙃 And, you basically get to float around in a giant tub of tea, which is cool. 🍵

  • 72 hours new. ❤️ Baby is doing amazing and my recovery is going very well! There is so much to reflect on on these early days::: pregnancy, labor and birth, the moments of absolute newness and perfection, and the amazing, raw, and vulnerable beauty that sums it all up.
  • This is my son. ❤️ His name is Jack and he is 8 lbs of perfection.
  • So excited to have these EMF reducing products right before baby is due from @airesshield to help protect all of us from harmful EMF radiation! They can be installed on a phone, laptop, wifi router, or any other potentially harmful device. I feel much better about all these pictures I'm going to be taking with my phone of my little man now. 😍
