Summer Aromatherapy for Your Home

When the weather gets hot and sticky, odors suddenly smell stronger, and most of us could use some help freshening the air in our homes. Avoid harmful chemical sprays and opt for aromatherapy with essential oils to naturally freshen your home and brighten your mood. Add a few drops of essential oils to a water-filled spray bottle and use as a linen spray and all-purpose cleaner. Here are some scents that will add a summery feel to your home:

• Lemon: Zesty and uplifting.


• Lavender: Soothing and relaxing.


• Mint: Refreshing and cooling, it brightens the mood.


• Bergamot: Sweet, spicy, and harmonizing.


• Rose: An anti-depressant, soothing and harmonizing.


• Eucalyptus: Works great as an antiseptic cleaner and leaves a refreshing, cooling scent.
