| Mood lifting | Diffuser | Uplifting, joyful, bright |
| Relaxation | Massage oil (diluted 1-2%) | Calming warmth, eases tension |
| Children's blends | Diffuser / diluted roll-on | Gentle, well-liked citrus |

- Diffuse 5-10 drops in a room diffuser for an instant bright, fresh atmosphere
- Dilute at 1-2% in a carrier for massage; never apply undiluted
- Because it is gentle and familiar, sweet orange is often the first oil for aromatherapy beginners and children (patch-test first)
- Pair with lavender and chamomile for a calming bedtime blend; with peppermint for a refreshing morning blend
- Aromatherapy use is supportive wellness practice — it does not replace medical treatment
