VAPOUR METHOD.
This method is a variation of the previous one. We can also say it is a healing and very stimulating method. It is very fast since through inhalation, essences reach our blood flow quickly.
The use of this method is recommended for illnesses related to the nervous system; specially for depression, fatigue, anxiety, etc.
If you suffer from respiratory illnesses like the flu, sinus, or colds, this method would be the most appropriate.
For the development of this method, we will need two bodies: upper body - a bowl, lower body - a candle (heat source).
The bowl will help spread a quantity of water. Water should be plenty to avoid quick evaporation. When the water we have placed in the bowl starts boiling, we pour from 6 to 10 drops of the oil we wish to use. The water in the bowl mustn't run out. To avoid this, pour more water to replace the one that has evaporated and you must add a couple of more drops of essence as well.
This type of method can also be used as air infusions for rooms.
