How do I use defrosting my brain in a diffuser?

Add Camphor 3 · Rosemary 3 · Cedarwood 3 drops to 200–300 ml of water. In a room under 15 m², use 1–2 drops less; in a room over 25 m², add 1 more drop of the main oil.

What can I use instead of camphor?

Swap camphor for eucalyptus or tea tree — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: eucalyptus is strong, cool and wide open.

When is the best time to use defrosting my brain?

Run it at your desk or study corner in cycles of 30 minutes on, 30 minutes off, so your nose does not tune the scent out.

Defrosting my brain · Camphor, Rosemary, Cedarwood blend

Brain frozen solid like ice, in urgent need of thawing. Camphor, rosemary, and cedarwood get ten drops each: soft, warm herbs, sharp green notes, and dry wood, balanced and steady. Premix these thirty drops and use five each time. Great for a study desk or work desk on cold-season mornings, when you just can't seem to get into the groove.

How it unfolds

On opening. Camphor (icy, strong and clean); rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

What remains. Cedarwood (dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

Safety

Skin irritant

Camphor can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.
