MONQ should not be inhaled into the lungs. Simply, breathe in the mouth, out the nose. The breathing action is similar to that of sucking a drink through a straw.  To breathe into the mouth without inhaling, use your mouth, tongue, and pharynx to draw from the device and push the breath to the nose, Breathe out your nose. Keep your mouth closed during the breath.

MONQ is most beneficial when breathed in this manner. Data suggests that the terpenes—the active compounds—are less effective when absorbed in the lungs.

While use differs by person, most MONQ devices provide approximately 200 breaths of Therapeutic Air^®.  With regular, recommended use, each diffuser lasts about a month.

Because MONQ blends have a robust taste, most users are satisfied taking 2-3 breaths every few hours. Often users find they need to take fewer, softer breaths than they initially anticipated.  Users who are particularly sensitive to external stimuli (including aromatherapy) often like to soften the impact of each breath, by inserting their fingertip as a spacer between their mouth and the device. Not surprisingly, these users find their personal diffusers last far longer, sometimes more than 300 breaths.

No. MONQ are personal aromatherapy diffusers.

MONQ personal aromatherapy diffusers use vaporizer technology to deliver all-natural essential oil blends in classic aromatherapy combinations, all of which are free of nicotine and tobacco, GMOs, and artificial ingredients, and are 100% organic and vegan. Breathe our MONQ blends into your mouth, pause, and breathe out through your nose. MONQ should not be inhaled into the lungs.

So, when do you need to reorder? Here are some tips:

• The light doesn’t shine as bright. We can all use a tune-up once in a while. So can your diffuser. When the crystal light starts blinking, doesn’t shine as bright, or doesn’t light up, you need a new diffuser.

•  The air you breathe seems a little less fresh. Our blends are pleasantly robust. When your diffuser begins to lose flavor or taste stale, please replace it. We want you to have the best experience. 

• The vapor flow changes. Vapor output changes from diffuser to diffuser and user to user. But, if the vapor of your go-to diffuser changes, grab a new one.

• You don’t feel the way you want. MONQ products are designed to help you Feel the Way You Want. Anything less than that? It’s time for a new diffuser. =)

MONQ bottled blends should not be used to refill your personal MONQ diffuser nor any other similar device including e-cigarettes or vapes. These essential oils are not eJuice!

Rather, bottled blends are made to be used with your favorite water-based room diffuser or with an aromatherapy necklace or like device. Simply add 2-3 drops of your preferred bottled blend to a water-based room diffuser—we recommend one with a built-in timer to avoid sensory adaptation.

For aromatherapy on the go, try one of our MONQ original diffusers or MONQ R— a sustainable, portable, and rechargeable aromatherapy diffuser that uses Blend PODs to help you can breathe your favorite blends anywhere.
