’Tis the season for cozy sweaters, over-sized fuzzy socks, and delicious hot beverages. Make sure to complete your perfect winter vibe by warming up your living space with these comforting and seasonal aromatherapy blends. My absolute favourite way to infuse the air with essential oils is through a cool mist diffuser, which you can purchase at many home or wellness shops.
For tips on purchasing essential oils, read my post, Four questions to ask before buying essential oils .
SUGAR AND SPICE
3 drops sweet orange essential oil
3 drops bergamot essential oil
2 drops clove essential oil
2 drops of cinnamon essential oil
This blend of citrus and spice will promote a warm and inviting environment. Clove essential oil is especially known to encourage feelings of love and acceptance – perfect for large holiday gatherings!
WINTER WONDERLAND
3 drops pine essential oil
3 drops cedarwood essential oil
2 drops orange essential oil
2 drops nutmeg essential oil
The woodsy scents of cedarwood and pine are natural stress relievers that will calm and ground you after days spent in a frenzy of shopping and rushing around.
IMMUNITY BOOST
3 drops eucalyptus essential oil
3 drops lavender essential oil
2 drops thyme essential oil
2 drops pine essential oil
Just as the name suggests, these naturally antiseptic essential oils will give your immune system the boost it needs. Eucalyptus and pine are particularly great for clearing the respiratory system.
MINTY FRESH
5 drops spearmint essential oil
2 drops lemon essential oil
1 drop lavender essential oil
1 drop eucalyptus essential oil
1 drop cedarwood essential oil
Clear the air after a house full of guests this refreshing essential oil blend. The sweet, minty scent of spearmint will not only combat stagnant and musty air, but will also help with mental fatigue.

Love these essential oil mixtures. I actually asked for some for Christmas! Question – do you have a diffuser recommendation? What about a brand of oils?
I like the ones from Saje Natural Wellness.

Agreed! Saje Wellness has a great selection of diffusers, or Muji also carries some as well. For guaranteed purity, Tisserand or Oshadhi essential oils have been highly rated and if you are interested in learning more, Robert Tisserand has written extensively on aromatherapy and the use of essential oils.
Those are pretty great blends, it seems! Perfect especially for the winter. What are your suggestions for spring? 🙂
Hi Lisa,
I’ll check in with Seanna and see what she says!

Hi Kate, Are Saje oils 100% pure oils? (not including the blends)
Hey Courtney! We would suggest contacting the company themselves to ask them about their purifying and manufacturing process 🙂 Rachel – Joyous Health Team
