    You shall not tempt me with floral wax…..I am strong and can resist! The orange, peppermint, and eucalyptus though…MMMMMMM!
    Can I mix that up and sniff it now? Will it help this evil cold that is making me feel horrid and stuffy?!?

    Just equal parts, I’m assuming? I’m cleaning out my diffuser this morning and wondering if I should put that in there? I know there’s some contraindications for children and peppermint (maybe eucalyptus too??) but I can’t imagine that she would have a problem with it in a large open room. Our downstairs living/dining area is mostly open plan, with vaulted ceilings, and that’s where I have the diffuser.

    I do equal drops. Young kids under 6, should only use eucalyptus radiata or smithii. No More than 1%.

    Put 5-6 in diffuser. Let run 20 minutes.

    I’m being sniffed by dog. He who owns my universe. Lol I load my diffuser, he plops on the bed for naptime.

    Shango, he who rules the dog verse.

    Olaf the Wonder Pup!

    Beautiful!! I love dogs!

    This is one of mine. He is Olaf, the most cowardly dog you will ever meet! This face he’s making now is the one I get when it’s time to eat. I call it his “I’m sooooo pitiful….please feed me” face. Pathetic! My daughter named him during “Frozen” frenzy. When we adopted him, we asked her to name him. She immediately said “His name is Olaf because he likes warm hugs”. What’s funny is she’s right! He’s a very cuddly dog.

    I’ve got my diffuser going with orange, peppermint, and eucalyptus. Smells wonderful! Thanks for the tip!😊

    OMG, he’s adorable! What a pouty puppy. I just want to hug him.

    Shango loves hugs. But he adores food more. Though if you want to give food and hugs, he’s willing. But he believes he owns this complex. He greets everyone he sees. “Hi, I’m Shango. I own this place. Welcome to my universe.”

    It’s a great blend. Perfect to ease sinus congestion. Eases the lung congestion. I love it.

    Yes, it is helping with the congestion. I haven’t had sinus meds since this morning and I’m feeling a little clearer since diffusing.

    Yes, Olaf is very pouty! That face!! “I’m hungry. Feed me” and “you’re sitting in the recliner. Can I sit in your lap??” and “there’s a big scary person outside! Can I hide behind your leg while I bark so they THINK I’m a big, bad, scary dog??”. He is hilarious and pathetic!! Haha

    Aww, Shango would just mow him over and be like, “Follow me…I got this.” He’s such perky pup. Poor Olaf would be forced to be brave. Lol

    Nice thing about the diffuser, you can create similar blends to cleanse the room, disinfecting the air. Tea tree, lemon/lime,and fir. I do about 7 drops of the first two, the 4 of the last. It smells refreshing. Mix with water, liquid soap, and go clean. 😁

    That sounds like a great scent! I need to write that down

    Olafs idea of being brave is barking ferociously while hiding under the bed. Yep! He’s such a good guard dog! Hahahaha
