Essential Oil Recipes

Aromatherapy Essential Oil Recipes for Body, Mind and Spirit


Relaxation
This blend is for relaxation and stress relief. It will induce a deep relaxation of the tissues, muscles and joints, and re-establish a good energy balance.

Blend the following essential oils into one ounce of carrier oil of your choice; Massage as desired. May also be used as a bath oil.
3 drops Lavender 3 drops Tangerine 3 drops Marjoram 1 drop Chamomile
A Scented Bath
Relaxing in a warm scented bath induces alpha brain waves, which enhance concentration and are more likely to trigger intuition than the rapid beta waves we experience throughout our normal day. Researchers agree that intuitive thoughts come suddenly and ususally when we're relaxing. Enjoy!
Blend to Control Pet Odor
Try this natural and aromatic spray. Pour the essential oils into a 1-oz spray bottle filled with water. Shake very vigorously several times before each use. Spray directly onto your dog, holding the bottle about 10 inches from him. Avoid spraying on the head and eyes.

  • 10 drops Lavender
  • 10 drops Geranium
  • 6 drops Lemon
    From Aromatherapy for Animals, Part 1: Healing Blends for Dogs
    by Françoise Rapp
    Bath Mush
  • 1/4 cup aloe gel (the pure kind from the health food store)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup sea or rock salt
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream or powdered milk
  • 2 t. jojoba oil (optional)
  • 5 drops essential oil Sounds like a gooey mess, doesn't it? But it works wonders on your skin. It leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth. This is a blend made right before the bath. I guess it could be stored in the refrigerator for abut a week, but that sounds a little yucky to me. All measurements are approximate since I usually just "eyeball" it. You have to stir it well when you pour it into the bath water to make it disperse, but it's worth it.
    Rosemary Mist
    Brace yourself This sense-stimulating mist is a superb post-shower, after you've toweled off but skin is still a bit damp. In spray bottle place 5 ounces distilled water, 1 tsp olive oil, 6 drops rosemary essential oil and 1 sprig fresh rosemary. Shake well to mix -- spritz on as desired.

    Eucalyptus oil
    An effective analgesic and often used to relieve muscle, nerve and joint pain. Apply a massage oil to the affected area before a warm bath,then massage the area again after your bath. I like a blend of Lavender and Eucalyptus for even better results. When massaging small areas like a shoulder you can double the amount of essential oils used. ex. 20-30 drops per 1 oz. carrier oil

    Essential Oils for Cold and Flu
    Here are the some of the best choices in anti viral oils.
    Ravansara, Eucalyptus Radiata and Tea Tree
    They help fight viral infections and support the immune system. Mix 10 drops in 1 Tablespoon carrier oil and massage upper chest and back. or Place 3 drops on a tissue and inhale, pause and inhale again.

    Essential Oils for Congestion
    Eucalyptus Globulous, Eucalyptus Radiata,Rosemary, Lavender Spike and Tea Tree.
    They loosen congestion, help fight viral and bacterial infections while lifting the spirits. Mix 10 drops in 1 Tablespoon carrier oil and massage upper chest and back. or Place 3 drops on a tissue and inhale, pause and inhale again.

    Cold and Flu Fighter
  • 4 drops Sweet Eucalyptus unrectified is best
  • 4 drops Scotch Pine
  • 3 drops Lemon
    Add to a large bowl of steaming water. Covering your head lean over the bowl and inhale deeply for 2-5 minutes. May also be added to a diffuser or vaporizer. For Children Use Eucalyptus Smithi, a mild Eucalyptus for children and the elderly.
    Essential Oils for Headache
    Peppermint, Lavender, Roman Chamomile
    Put 1 drop of essential oil on each temple and at the nape of the neck. or mix 5 drops of Lavender and 1 drop of Peppermint into 1 Tablespoon carrier oil or lotion and massage neck and shoulders.

    Essential Oils for Body Aches
    Lavender, Roman Chamomile, Sweet Marjoram
    Help to soothe aches and pains. Mix 10 drops of essential oil in 2 Tablespoons of carrier oil or lotion and massage areas of discomfort.

    Why not try these for Valentines Day
    Ylang Ylang Chocolates
    Essential oils can be infused into chocolates or any other sweets by placing the loose chocolates in a box then adding a piece of absorbent paper to which you have placed 1 drop of Ylang Ylang. Cover and let sit until absorbed, a few days should do it. Try other oils like Orange or Mandarin for a different twist.

    Cellulite Blend
    This mixture stimulates circulation.
  • Eucalyptus Citriodora 2 ml
  • Lemon 2 ml
  • Cedarwood 2ml
  • Sage 2ml
  • Cypress 2 ml
  • Niaouli 2ml
  • in 100 ml Hazelnut oil
  • Apply 2-3 times per days for 30 days. Holiday Bookmarks If you're giving a book as a holiday gift why not add a bookmark to which you've added a few drops of essential oils. Try to choose something that will appeal to most folks like Orange or maybe a blend of Lavender and Tangerine. The Orange is great for kids. Create a bookmark for students adding oils to help them study, Peppermint, Rosemary and Basil will help keep them alert. Add a bottle of the essential oil so they can refresh their bookmark. Maybe spice oils for a cookbook. The possibilities are endless.
    Here's a great Holiday Bath Salt recipe.
    Ingredients include:
  • 2 C epsom salts
  • 1/2 C sea salt
  • 4-6 drops peppermint oil,
  • 2-3 drops red food coloring
  • Place 1 C of epsom salt and 1/4 C sea salt in a bowl.
  • Add 2-3 drops peppermint oil.
  • Place the remaining ingredients in a second bowl.
  • Mix all ingredients well.
  • Layer the red and white salts in a clear bottle or jar.
  • I placed the lid on the jar and then put a paper doily over the lid, tied a red ribbon and a candy cane around the lid/doily. With the red and white layering, it makes an attractive presentation. Since peppermint is an energizing scent perhaps it's a good one to use at this busy time of year. Christmas Ginger Cookies
    Add 3 drops of Ginger essential oil per batch of cookies. This tip from The Aromatherapy Book by Jeanne Rose

    A homemade inhaler, that is very easy to stick in a pocket or purse is made by simply saving an empty chap stick tube. Wash out with hot soap and water to remove all traces of chap stick and let air dry. Next put a piece of cotton in the inhaler and measure the drops of essential oils for your blend directly on the cotton.

    Frankincense and Myrrh Soap Balls
    Making your own soap can be a complicated process. However......this is a very simple way of introducing your favorite smells to a basic, fragrance-free soap, using a combination of nourishing vegetable oil, oatmeal as a natural exfoliant and healing and nourishing honey!! The soaps are scented with the heavenly combination of frankincense and myrrh. The spicy, woody scent of frankincense is uplifting, while the balsamic, must scent of myrrh is known to be anti-fungal and healing.
    Materials
  • 9 ounces of pure, unscented soap
  • 4 fl. ounces water
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon finely ground oatmeal
  • 1 teaspoon sweet almond or apricot kernel oil
  • 12 drops myrrh essential oil
  • 8 drops frankincense essential oil.
  • Cheese grater (fine)
  • Bain-Marie(double boiler with a ceramic insert to evenly disperse gentle heat)
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Dried herbs (optional) Grate the soap with a fine cheese grater. Place the soap in the bain-marie with the water. Gently heat over a low least. Gradually the mixture will form a thick and fairly sticky paste. When the soap has melted, add the honey, oatmeal, oil and dried herbs(optional) and mix in well. Transfer to a clean bowl and then add in the essential oils. Mix very thoroughly! Have a bowl of water on hand to wet your hands. Then take a small handful of the mixture and mold into round balls. You will be able to make approximately 2 large balls or 5 or so of the smaller ones. Place on a sheet of grease-proof paper and leave it to harden for a week or so. Or.......you can put the mixture in a shaped mold!
