Lemon’s Aromatherapy Gifts: Dusting How-To
2 comments

Inspired by Aromatherapy for Healing the Spirit, by Gabriel Mojay (Inner Traditions, 1997).

Dusting is usually a dark and dingy job, but you can clear your mind and even prepare for a romantic Valentine’s date (who knew lemon oil is an aphrodisiac?) by combining lemon aromatherapy oil with your dusting rag.

Open your heart while you clean, and learn more about this astonishing oil that is a top-note fragrance, one of the lightest in aromatherapy, and associated with Venus and Neptune, here:

The aromatherapy attributes of lemon oil.

1. Cleanser, detoxifier
2. Antiviral
3. Refreshing
4. Clearing
5. Lightens and refreshes
6. Unburdens the mind
7. Uplifts heart and mind.
8. Helps open the heart.
9. Preserver of good health

Light and Lemony Dusting Cloth
10 drops pure essential oil of lemon
2 tablespoons jojoba or olive oil

Combine the oils, dip a soft, recycled cotton cloth into the oil, and use it for dusting.

I Love Lemon! It's so uplifting. Especially good in the winter when S.A.D. sets in
