How to Use Essential Oils for Meditation
Meditation 101
To get the most out of your meditation practice, there are a few things to remember. First, you’ll want to remove all distractions from the area you’re meditating in. It may be best for you to put your phone on airplane mode until after you’re done with your meditation.
Next, loosen up your body with light exercise or yoga. This removes any stiffness you have before you sit on your meditation cushion. Make sure that you’ve put on an Aromatherapy Inhalation Patch under your shirt so you’re able to smell the essential oil as it warms up with your body temperature.
Finally, sit comfortably on the floor and let your thoughts wander. Focus on your breath and releasing any expectations you have about meditation. Do this for as long as necessary until you start feeling better about your situation.
The average meditation session can last minutes or hours long depending on your discipline and schedule. Note that one patch provides up to eight hours of relief so you’re well covered when it comes to aromatherapy. You won’t need to wear another until your next meditation session.
