USING EUCALYPTUS OIL IN A DIFFUSER OR ROOM SPRAY (SINUS RELIEF AND SPIRITUALITY)

The cooling and healing scent of Eucalyptus Essential Oil is known to relieve mental exhaustion by boosting circulation, stimulating the mind out of sluggishness and rejuvenating the spirit. Those suffering from sinus congestion or sinus tension that causes headaches can diffuse Eucalyptus Essential Oil to clear nasal passages and to eliminate harmful airborne bacteria.

As a natural disinfecting air spray, Eucalyptus Essential Oil acts as an anti-microbial, non-toxic air freshener that removes from the environment, bacteria, viruses, and mould that could contribute to respiratory issues. A Eucalyptus spray can freshen the room and eliminate the body odours trapped in shoes and sports gear. Those who suffer from allergies will benefit from the anti-inflammatory properties that make it easier to breathe.

1. EUCALYPTUS MELTING SHOWER CUBE BLEND FOR SINUS RELIEF

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Add the Eucalyptus Essential Oil and Cornstarch to a mixing bowl. Using a spoon, thoroughly mix them until the mixture appears to be a crumbly powder.
2. (Optional) Add in a few drops of the food colouring and thoroughly mix it into the dust.  The colouring might not be very concentrated until step 3 is complete.
3. Combine the water into the powder until the food colouring disperses evenly throughout the mixture and clumps begin to form in the dust. (Note: This amount of water will not be sufficient for creating a paste; however, from this starting point, more water can be carefully rationed to form a paste.)
4. Continue adding a few drops of water at a time, mixing it in well. (As soon as water touches the Cornstarch, the latter begins to harden, so adding water Tlowly is critical.)
5. Once a thick paste has formed, transfer the mixture to a mini ice cube tray.  Smooth and flatten the dough so that it is level with the top of the ice cube tray to form perfect cubes.
6. Freeze the tray contents for 1 hour or until the mixture is set.
7. When the shower cubes are ready for use, place them on the shower floor and turn the water on. To prevent slippage in the shower, put the hub in a shallow dish or near the shower drain.
8. Shower as usual and enjoy the aromatic vapour from a cube as the water melts it and diffuses its decongestant scent.
9. If the hubs are runny due to too much water in the mixture, store them in the freezer.
10. If the cubes do not diffuse a strong enough aroma for personal scent preference, more essential oils can add to the finished cubes. This can be done by first crushing the cubes in a mixing bowl, then adding a few more drops of essential oils to the powder, and stirring in small amounts of water to recreate a paste. The paste can then be placed in an ice cube tray and frozen until ready for use.
