Fall just might be my favorite season. There’s just something about it. With the days getting shorter, grayer and colder, I just get giddy thinking about scary movies, smores and fires in the fireplace! My all-time favorite fall candle is THIS and I still burn it-I won’t lie. I just can’t let it go, but I’m very aware of the toxins and only burn it on special night or dreary days. However, there is a safer alternative that can actually detox your air but still give you the cozy scent of fall!
Since essential oils are antibacterial and antiviral they do the opposite of what most candle do. They actually detox the air. This is really helpful when bugs and viruses are on the rampage! An added bonus is that by combining a few oils, you can get that smell of fall! Not to mention all the benefits of regular diffusing.
The following blends I’ve collected from essential oil friends and of course Pinterest! I’ve compiled my absolute favorites just for you!

Just food for thought-These combos are also great lip balm flavors!
Go HERE for a diffuser. If you aren’t diffusing, you really should-Not only is it fun, it’s healthy too. I actually have 3 for each bedroom. You wouldn’t believe how helpful they are when a kiddo gets sick!
Happy Fall!

P.S. I get most of my essential oils from Plant Therapy. They are affordable, many of them organic and I love the fast, free shipping! I also love Mountain Rose Herbs essential oils.
Hi , can you please tell me complete method how to make these diffusers (works for allergy ) what to mix with essential oils . Thaks 😊
Alishah-There is a line inside the diffuser where you fill distilled or filtered water up to. Then you just add oils and turn it on!
hi jenni,
I’m super excited to try this, don’t know anything about diffusers…. will buy my first diffuser very soon!!! so any suggestions on how to use a diffuser properly? I’m assuming you just fill the water and put in the oils that you want? when you want to change the scent what do you do to clean out the system? can I just rinse with water and put in new oils or do I have to clean it with something else? thanks jenni
Hello,
1 link to the diffuser site is broken and the 2nd isn’t available-do you have more suggestions? Thank you!
