Top Essential Oils for Stress & Anxious Feelings
Diffuser Recipe for Stress Relief
Here's an AWESOME diffuser recipe for stress relief. Comment here when you try it & let me know what you thought 😘 ... To your diffuser add:
4 drops Roman Chamomile essential oil
3 drops Lavender essential oil
2 drops Clary Sage essential oil
2 drops Geranium essential oil
1 drop Ylang Ylang essential oil
Essential Oils + Meditation
Use essential oils with meditation. This has proven to significantly reduce anxious feelings, help with concentration, & mood regulation. Anxiety is a primary trigger that can disrupt all our healthy lifestyle plans. If you can't get motivated to exercise, or you find yourself turning to foods you shouldn't, try this...
Find a quiet place in your home, diffuse your favorite grounding essential oil blend (I enjoy the Balance Blend for this), & let your mind wander for a few minutes. To help with this, & if you aren't sure about or have never tried meditation, look up the app "Headspace" on your phone. It makes meditation simple. Give it a try!
Essential Oils + Yoga
Use oils while doing Yoga. Yoga has proven to be beneficial because of its 3 main components: asanas (physical postures), pranayama (breathing technique), & meditation. Modern day research has shown that yoga can help manage stress in several ways:
Decreases salivary cortisol, which is a known stress hormone.
Helps stabilize the function of the autonomic nervous system, the system that controls our breathing, heartbeat, and digestive processes.
Plays a significant role in decreasing heart rate.
Stimulates the amygdala and frontal cortex, which house our memory and emotional reactions.
When you add essential oils, you magnify the health benefits of yoga. You further reduce anxious feelings, maintain concentration, & facilitate clear breathing + open airways. Here's some tips on oils to include in your yoga practice:
Apply InTune at the beginning of class to help set your focus.
Rub a drop of doTERRA Breathe on your chest.
For a more invigorating practice, diffuse Wild Orange and Peppermint.
Diffuse doTERRA Serenity for a more calming practice.
Apply a drop of Frankincense or Sandalwood to your temples during meditation to help you relax and reduce stress.
Apply doTERRA Balance to the back of your neck during Savasana to help with relaxation.
