聞香棒怎麼用？直接插入鼻孔？拿著在鼻孔前嗅聞？
 
芳香想想精油讀書會學員的組合很多元，
有單純喜歡芳香療法的素人，
有準備邁向芳香療法專業的準學員，有資深的同業朋友。
 
每次精油讀書會因抽選精油、節氣天候、同場參與學員差異
都會激盪出不同內容，每個人也會有不同收穫，
這些收穫部分能夠用語言文字形容，
部分是身體體感吸收之後經時間自己累積歸納。
 
2026 年 4 月檸檬、快樂鼠尾草、月桂、羅勒
這四種精油，基於高含量檸檬烯及酯類，
可以為身、心帶來輕盈、鬆快、歡愉感受，
我計劃讓學員每人調配一支個人配方的聞香棒，
舒解低落、煩悶、沉鬱的情緒，
其他的配方製作物再讓大家臨床發揮，
於是產生了聞香棒怎麼用的問題？
 
我通常在聞香棒中滴入 8-20 滴純精油，
需要時拿在鼻子前深呼吸幾次，2-3 個月後即可丟棄
聞香棒的造型原本就是設計插入鼻孔使用，
我在嘗試數次後覺得這個方式太直接且強烈，
背離溫柔對待身體的初衷，以及在意美觀問題，
很少推薦這個用法，但是緊急/特殊狀況或不方便手拿的時候，
插入鼻孔的用法強烈且快速。
選擇這個用法時，建議精油滴數 3-5 滴而且不宜超過，
使用幾次/天即可丟棄。

注意：
1、需避免選用刺激黏膜的植物精油；

How do you use an aroma inhaler?
Do you insert it directly into your nostril?
Or do you hold it in front of your nostril nose and sniff?
The participants of the Essentialtalk Aromatheropy Study Group are diverse: from casual enthusiasts who simply love aromatherapy, to aspiring students preparing for a professional career in the field, and even seasoned colleagues.
Each essential oil study group session generates unique content, influenced by the chosen essential oils, the seasonal weather, and the diverse participants present. Consequently, everyone gains different insights. Some of these insights can be articulated in words, while others are embodied experiences that are absorbed and gradually understood or integrated over time.
April 2026: Lemon, Clary Sage, Laurel, Sweet Basil These four essential oils, rich in limonene and esters, are known to bring feelings of lightness, ease, and joy to both body and mind. My plan was for each participant to blend their own personal aroma inhaler to help relieve feelings of low mood, irritability, and gloom. For any other blend creations, I encouraged them to apply their own practical understanding. This then naturally led to the questions raised earlier about how to use an aroma inhaler.
I typically add 8-20 drops of pure essential oil to the aroma inhaler. When needed, I hold it in front of my nose and take several deep breaths. It can be discarded after 2-3 months of use.
Aroma inhalers are originally designed to be inserted directly into the nostrils. However, after trying this method several times, I found it too direct and intense, which goes against the principle of gentle body care. Also, due to aesthetic concerns, I rarely recommend this usage. Nevertheless, for emergency/special situations or when it's inconvenient to hold the inhaler, direct insertion provides a strong and rapid effect. If you choose this method, I suggest using 3-5 drops of essential oil and not exceeding that amount. It should be discarded after a few uses per day.
