5 Step Breathe Easy Ritual

Step 1: Purify the air 

With all that coughing and sneezing around it’s a great idea to naturally purify the air in your home. Spritz Breathing Space Room Spray around your car, home or office to create a clean environment and instil an atmosphere of total serenity. The combination of fir, eucalyptus, lemon and lavender pure essential oils will help cleanse your surroundings and purify the air. As a bonus, it will also replace stale odours with a fresh, natural scent!

Towels and bed linen can also be spritzed with Breathing Space Room Spray as a natural linen freshener. Spray it over your mattresses, pillow cases and sheets, and if you’re lucky enough to experience some sunshine, pop them outside to air dry.

Step 2: Diffuse and inhale

Breathe Easy blend is bursting with pine essential oil which is said to possess antimicrobial, antiviral and antibacterial properties. Tea tree oil acts an immunostimulant that may help your body’s ability to respond to infection! Eucalyptus is also included to assist in clearing up congestion.

Handy hint: Add a few drops of Breathe Easy Essential Oil blend and ½ a cup of bicarbonate soda into your wash to boost germ-busting and gently fragrance clothes and sheets.

How do you use Breathe Easy blend?

We suggest adding 3-4 drops to a handkerchief and holding under your nose. Take some nice, deep breaths and really inhale the vapours. Enjoy the benefits of direct inhalation and allow the magic to happen!

For a stronger version of this, and to help clear sinuses, fill a bowl with steaming water and add 5-10 drops of Breathe Easy blend. Pop a towel over your head and breathe deeply, remembering to keep your eyes closed. For purification and perfect ambiance in your home or workplace, add a few drops of Breathe Easy to your diffuser or humidifier (each one has different instructions so be sure to check yours). This will help purify and naturally freshen and fragrance the air. Aching body? Why not make a massage blend by using a 2.5% dilution of Breathe Easy in the carrier oil of your choice (Tip: cold-pressed sweet almond or apricot kernel oil work a treat!). To create a 2.5% dilution simply use five drops in every 10ml of carrier oil.

Step 3: Massage and relax

Breathe Easy Aromatherapy Balm into your chest, throat and back. You can also pop a dab under your nostrils and take some long, deep breaths for a clearing and cleansing effect.

Handy hint: Cover the soles of your feet with a luscious layer of Breathe Easy Aromatherapy Balm and pop some socks on to allow your body to really absorb the essential oils and their properties.

Step 4: Sip and unwind 

While Breathe Easy Aromatherapy Balm does all the hard work, put your feet up and sip some warm Breathe Easy Herbal Tea and enjoy the fortifying brew of echinacea, elderflower, licorice root, peppermint, sage and thyme. This tea was specially crafted to help ward off winter invaders and build up your defenses.

It’s also soothing for sore throats and great for pesky chest coughs!

Simply add a teaspoon of loose Breathe Easy Herbal Tea to a cup of freshly boiled water, allow to infuse for 5-10 minutes, and enjoy!

Step 5: Protect the home 

We all know how important keeping clean hands is in avoiding the spread of germs.

For naturally clean hands, try our sulphate-free Aromatherapy Hand Wash. It’s filled with pure essential oils of lemon, tea tree and lavender, traditionally used for their antiseptic properties. To use, apply a small amount to wet hands and rub them together gently to form a lather. Rinse well and repeat often.

As an extra line of defence, protect your hands with a no-rinse, all-natural Aromatherapy Hand Sanitiser. Like the Aromatherapy Hand Wash, our best-selling hand sanitiser contains lemon, lavender and tea tree essential oils.
