How do I use overthink a little less in a diffuser?

Add Lavender 3 · Peppermint 3 · Tea Tree 1 · Geranium 1 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 lavender?

Swap lavender for ylang ylang or Roman chamomile — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: ylang ylang is rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral.

When is the best time to use overthink a little less?

Turn it on when your head feels tight: before a meeting, after a long day, or when you need a few minutes to settle.

Overthink a little less · Lavender, Peppermint, Tea Tree blend

Brood a little less; thinking too much only wears you out. Ten drops of peppermint sweep through your head like a cold breeze, the same amount of lavender pulls back the smoothness; tea tree adds clean green, and geranium adds green rose petals for softness. Good for your desk in the afternoon. The recipe is for a big room; a small room uses half, and cut the peppermint if it feels too cool.

How it unfolds

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); tea tree (green, medicinal and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. With no woody or resin base note, this blend fades fairly quickly — switch it on again after 1–2 hours to keep the room scented.
