★Ingredients
1 teaspoon of carrier oil like coconut oil or olive oil (to dilute the rosemary oil)
2-3 drops of rosemary essential oil (preferably pure and high-quality)
Small cotton ball (optional)
★Instructions
- Prepare the mixture
In a small bowl, mix 2-3 drops of rosemary essential oil with 1 teaspoon of carrier oil. Diluting the rosemary oil is important because it can be strong and may irritate the skin if applied directly. - Apply to the back of the neck
Using your fingers or a cotton ball, gently apply the mixture to the back of your neck, just below the base of the skull and along the spine. Massage the oil into the skin using gentle, circular motions. - Relax and breathe
After applying the oil, sit in a quiet space and take deep breaths. You can enjoy the calming effects of rosemary and benefit from its aromatic properties.
