How to Use Essential Oils to Improve Your Health

By Sarah Hunt, AZFB Communications Intern

 

Are you only using your essential oils for your diffuser and aren’t quite sure what else to do with them? Well then you’re in the right place! Learn how to use essential oils as a rub, in a drink of water, as a swallowable capsule, even in your cooking and cleaning, and so much more! doTERRA goes over the benefits of essential oils and how to use them in a way that’s easy to understand and execute. Learn more about using essential oils to improve your health below.

 

If you need to apply essential oil to the skin, make sure to mix the essential oil with a carrier oil first to dilute it. If you apply pure essential oil directly onto your skin, it can get itchy, dry, and irritated. You can use fractionated coconut oil or doTERRA’s body oil blend as a carrier oil.
