This is a delightful way of creating a pleasant aroma in your home,
not only as a sensual, uplifting or calming experience but also to
treat a wide range of complaints. This can be achieved by adding a
few drops of the chosen oil to a small bowl of water that is then
placed ontop of a radiator or by using an oil burner, which is
specifically designed and sold for this purpose. Specific oils can
be chosen to create the desired atmosphere, such as: cedarwood,
bergamot, lavender and frankincense to create a peaceful mood; ylang
ylang and all citrus oils for use in times of a depressed state or
lemongrass and citronella to ward off those troublesome insects.
Vaporization is another method for treating the common cold,
especially when helping to clear breathing difficulties or the
bothersome 'night cough'. Eucalyptus, sandalwood and myrtle will all
prove effective, and you may also like to try placing a few drops on
the pillow at night.
