How do I use reboot my brain in a diffuser?

Add Frankincense 3 · Lavender 2 · Lemon 1 · Basil 1 · Star Anise 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.

Swap frankincense for vanilla or myrrh — same resinous & sweet family. The blend will shift a little: vanilla is creamy, sweet and cozy.

Use it while meditating, doing yoga, journaling, or simply sitting still for 10 minutes without your phone.

Reboot my brain · Frankincense, Lavender, Lemon blend

Five essential oils for a mind that needs a restart. Frankincense and lavender build a thick, smooth base, lemon cuts through with freshness, basil adds a green spice, and star anise sprinkles a warm sweetness like home-kitchen spices. Made for days when your head is tired and you need to clear space for new ideas. Star anise stands out, so if you don't love the licorice note, reduce it to one drop.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); basil (sweet and green with a hint of anise); star anise (sweet and warm, reminiscent of pho broth and Tet sweets) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
