2. Enjoy the therapeutic properties of your essential oils through inhalation. Pour a few drops of essential oils a bowl of hot water, put a towel over your head, and inhale the steam deeply for about 5-10 minutes, taking breaks if needed. With inhalation, you can enjoy most of the therapeutic properties of essential oils. The effect is an instant nose, sinus and chest decongestion, which is more powerful than diffusing the oils into a room. Eucalyptus essential oil is best taken via steam inhalation.
3. Make a mix rub – mix 3-5 drops of your oil(s) of choice with a carrier oil like coconut, olive oil or other vegetable carrier oil. Massage the blend on your feet and toes every night before bedtime.
4. Another way to experience the benefits of essential oils for snoring is to use them in a roll-on bottle and apply them to your forehead or neck before sleep.
Have a good night sleep!
