to use oils<br />
One of <strong>the</strong> first things you’ll want to familiarise yourself <strong>with</strong> is <strong>the</strong> ways that<br />
How<br />
each of <strong>the</strong> essential oils can be used. Keep in mind that each oil has specific<br />
uses – all of <strong>the</strong> oils can be used aromatically and topically; but <strong>the</strong>re are a<br />
select few that can be also be used internally.<br />
Let’s breakdown each use one-at-a-time :<br />
The benefits of essential oils can be felt aromatically in three ways; ei<strong>the</strong>r by<br />
smelling directly from <strong>the</strong> bottle, putting a few drops into <strong>the</strong> palms of your<br />
hands and rubbing toge<strong>the</strong>r and inhaling, or by combining one or a<br />
combination of oils into an ultra-sonic diffuser. Diffusing doTERRA oils is <strong>the</strong><br />
quickest way to receive <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>rapeutic benefits of an oil as it stimulates our<br />
olfactory system which is <strong>the</strong> part of <strong>the</strong> brain connected to smell<br />
Topical use means applying to <strong>the</strong> skin. When you are first starting out using<br />
doTERRA essential oils, it’s always recommended to patch test oils on your skin<br />
first. If you do you have sensitive skin, using a cotton tip is a good way to test<br />
out <strong>the</strong> oil on your skin. It is recommended to always use a carrier oil as this<br />
will help to create a barrier and minimise skin sensitivity. It should especially<br />
always be used if using oils on <strong>the</strong> elderly, on toddlers and young babies<br />
Not all doTERRA essential oils are deemed safe for internal use. It is important<br />
to read <strong>the</strong> label before ingesting any doTERRA essential oils. There are many<br />
benefits to taking doTERRA essential oils internally, however doing so is<br />
completely a personal choice only if you feel comfortable doing so. To receive<br />
<strong>the</strong> internal benefits of an oil you can add drops into water, add drops into<br />
Veggie capsules, put drops on your thumb and press onto <strong>the</strong> roof of your<br />
mouth or place drops directly under your tongue
