Inhalation: Essential Oils can be used by simply smelling them directly.  You can use a diffuser which releases and distributes the oil into the air in a vapor.  You can also place a few drops of essential oil on a tissue and place it in front of a humidifier filled with water.  As the vapor from the humidifier is released, the essential oils are distributed into the air. (Do not put the oil directly into the humidifier.  It can cause damage and will also not work)

Topical Application: Essential Oils can be applied topically to the skin by simply placing 2-3 drops of the essential oil in the palm of your hand and applying it directly to a desired area.  When you place the oil in your hand, rub your hands together ina circular motiopn 2-3 times and then massage the oil onto the skin.

Essential Oils can be applied to various arts of the body such as the soles of the feet, the ankles, the neck, the back, the crown of the head, temples, behind the ears, the abdomen and other life giving organs.

Internal Consumption:  You can add several drops of an essential oil to an empty capsule and swallow it with water.  You can also add a few drops of oil to a glass of water, rice milk or directly onto the tongue.

Please note that therapeutic grade essential oils are potent so use caution to avoid skin irritation.  If you do experience irritation, dilute the area by applying 100% pure vegetable or olive oil.  Lastly, make sure you read each essential oils' label before use.
