Have you ever wished to have your haven in your own house; a place where you can rest and sort your head out? Imagine this: Dimmed lamping, cozy chairs, and a nice, very mild scent lingering in the air. Welcome to the world of creating a wellness space with fragrance and the creation of healing spaces with the help of essential oil.
Wellness space is not just about placing some cozy cushions: it is about creating the desired state of mind, and physique. Allow me an explanation of how you can achieve this by using fragrances in essential oil products, some of which you can find in HBNO.
Why Focus on Fragrance for Wellness?
Smell is a strong persuasive factor affecting our health. A perfect scent can take you to the forest or make you remember the cheerful moments and immediately make you feel better. Using the fragrances of essential oils to enhance the feel of your wellness space will help turn it into a sanctuary for calm or a hub for productivity.
For myself, I first grasped the importance of fragrance when I started using essential oils during one of the most hectic periods at work. In my ‘positive space,’ using lavender oil to diffuse not only eased my stress but also gave the atmosphere of my home the look and feel of a spa. Ever since I have been converted to the use of scent design to achieve this kind of ambiance.
Step 1: Choosing Your Wellness Space
First things first: decide where you would like to locate your wellness space. It can be a small space within your family room, a small alcove in your master bedroom, or even an entire spare room if you have many of them. The idea is to choose some subject that seems to exist in a different dimension from your crazy, busy life. So when you enter your wellness space, you feel calm from the moment you get in and start your relaxation process.
Tip: If you’re working with a smaller area, opt for a folding screen or curtains to allow clients to get a sense of seclusion. This gives added value to the feeling of calmness and concentration.
Step 2: Creating the right ambiance involves lighting
As much as we want to get to the fragrances let’s take our time and look at lighting first. No bright lights are required because the warm and gentle lighting that you want to create complements your atmosphere. This relates to think candles, fairy lights, or maybe a Himalayan salt lamp. Exclude direct and intensive overhead lighting as these can be rather inimical to occupants’ comfort.
But most prominent in your wellness area will be the option of the essential oil scent. Here we will review various scent design possibilities to achieve the wanted environment.
Step 3: Choosing fragrances: Essential Oil
Your essential oil fragrances should be chosen according to the spirit you want for your wellness area. Here’s a guide to some of my favorite HBNO oils and how they can influence your mood:
1. Lavender for Relaxation
A lavender essential oil should highly be recommended since it helps create a calm environment. This scent is ideal for some relaxation in the evening after work. Listen to it while you sit to contemplate, when you read a book, or during some simple yoga poses.
Personal Tip: When I am stressed, I put a drop of HBNO lavender fragrance oil on a cotton ball and put it under my pillow. It is how you can guarantee a night of sweet dreams.
2. For energy & focus the recommended scents are Citrus.
If you plan on using the wellness space as the work-from-home area, invigorating smells such as oranges and lemons for example should suffice. These are fragrances that make you feel happy and help you stay awake and focused.
How to Use: Consider trying to diffuse HBNO orange essential oil during journaling or when involved in a creative task. The smell energizes the air and makes it stand out as lively, which is great for any work area.
3. Peppermint for Clarity
Peppermint essential oil is amazing if you’re feeling a bit cloudy in your mind. Its sharp and invigorating fragrance helps to clear the head and increase attentiveness. This oil is ideal for afternoon crashes and for those situations where a quick boost of brain power is needed.
Fun Fact: Once I let the HBNO peppermint oil spread in the room as some of my friends were solving complicated puzzles, and we all felt much more alert! This is one of those good oils to have around the house for any task that involves getting your brain working.
Step 4: How to Bring Essential Oils into Your Environment
Now that you have your essential oils ready, here are some creative ways to incorporate them into your wellness space:
- Diffuser: A classic choice! Put a few drops of your preferred HBNO essential oil into the diffuser and allow the scent to cover the room.
- Room Spray: Essential oil should be diluted in water, and then filled into a spray bottle. Squirt it around the room if the scent becomes weak and needs a little boost.
- Candles: If you’re a candle lover, it is recommended to place a few candles without fragrance in your space. If the candles are on, you should put a few drops of choice essential oil in a nearby diffuser for an ambiance and warmth feel.
Step 5: Personalize Your Space
By personalizing your wellness space with things that make you happy, you will be happy to be in the space. A soft blanket, comfortable flooring, or mattress for the child to lay on, your favorite books, or a rain sound machine can also make the process better. The idea is that this is your space, the most special one, so do not be shy to make it very welcoming.
Decor Idea: In my wellness space, I own small crystals and a small indoor plant. But it is a detail that plays into the relaxation of the place.
Step 6: Establishing Wellness Rituals
When designing your wellness space, involving special rituals can just add to the experience. Here are some ideas:
- Morning Meditation: Occasional use of stimulating essential oils such as citrus will help you break the stale mood and begin your day with renewed energy.
- Evening Wind-Down: Light flickering scents like lavender or chamomiles in the room and use of deep breathing.
- Journaling Session: Add some rosemary or peppermint oil for improving the concentration level and write as smooth as butter.
Pro Tip: All your wellness practices should be straightforward and repeated regularly. There is nothing more charming to a fragrance-focused wellness space than how it can effectively enhance your mood and well-being.
