Creating Tranquility: Lavender diffuser blends
Relaxing & Restorative Lavender
Aromatic diffusers are a delightful way to infuse our living spaces with a sense of calm and relaxation.
Among the vast array of essential oils, lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) stands out as a versatile and soothing option. Its gentle floral scent has been cherished for centuries due to its ability to promote relaxation and alleviate stress.
Lavender has an outstanding balancing and healing effect on the nervous system - it is both relaxing and restorative. Sometimes called the “rescue remedy” of aromatherapy, it reduces stress and calms the nervous system.
In this blog post, I’m sharing my favourite lavender diffuser blends that can transform your home into a haven of tranquility.
Four Diffuser Blends with Lavender
Lavender and Red Mandarin Serenity
Combining Lavender with Red Mandarin (Citrus riticulata) creates a heavenly blend that promotes deep relaxation.
Fill your diffuser with three drops of lavender essential oil and four drops of red mandarin essential oil. This combination is perfect for creating a peaceful atmosphere before bedtime.
Lavender and Rosemary Refreshment
To invigorate your space and promote mental clarity, pair lavender with rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) essential oil. The refreshing qualities of rosemary complement the calming nature of lavender.
Use three drops of lavender and three drops of rosemary to create a rejuvenating and revitalizing blend. This combination is excellent for enhancing focus and creating an uplifting atmosphere in your home office or study area.
Lavender and Cedarwood Tranquility
Combine the woody, earthy scent of cedarwood (Juniperus virginiana) with the calming aroma of lavender to evoke a sense of tranquility and grounding.
Mix three drops of lavender essential oil with two drops of cedarwood essential oil in your diffuser. This blend is perfect for creating a serene environment, especially during moments of introspection or when you simply need to unwind.
Lavender and Rose Geranium Harmony
For a restorative, balancing scent, blend lavender with rose geranium (Pelargonium graveolens var. roseum) essential oil. Combine three drops of lavender essential oil with two drops of rose geranium essential oil to create a beautifully balanced and calming atmosphere.
Do not take essential oils internally and do not apply undiluted on the skin. Always consult a professional aromatherapist if you have medical conditions. Use caution when using essential oils with children.
