I use them sparingly, but have found them very helpful in different situations. It's been awhile but I think that I began making my own cleaners which called for orange, lavender, and tea tree oil and that was how I started using them. Then I did some online research to use them on our own bodies and for diffusing. I do it sparingly though because I know they are very potent and I know one has to be careful around children and pets. The ones we use most often are lavender (on body for anxiety and stress) and thieves (diffused to protect against illness).
