You can safely add oregano oil to your diffuser so the aromatherapy can work its magic while you go about your household chores. However, oregano oil by itself doesn’t exactly smell heavenly. You may reduce the potent odor by adding “high note” oils to counterbalance, as follows:

Fill your diffuser with clean water to the safety line, plug in and breathe in the healing.
