Prepare Your Space:
Find a quiet, comfortable spot where you can fully immerse yourself in the meditation. Gather your essential oil of choice, ensuring it's either new to you or one you’ve yet to explore intentionally. Grab a piece of paper and a pen to jot down any thoughts or revelations at the end of the meditation experience.

You may also want to take some time, after your meditation, to learn about this essential oil’s origins, uses, and generally recognized therapeutic benefits. This understanding will deepen your connection and help you learn how your experience may be similar to or distinct from other people’s experiences with this specific aroma.
