De-Stress Essential Oil Blends

How to use essential oils for stress

One of the best and most popular ways to use your essential oils and essential oil blends is through the process of aromatherapy.

Adding your chosen essential oil to a steam diffuser or oil burner is the easiest way for the scent of the oil to fill your space, allowing it to gradually relax you and balance your emotions as the day progresses.

Alternatively, you can hold the essential oil bottle to your nose and inhale directly - or add it to a tissue or cotton pad for a similar effect. This is a great method if you find yourself feeling anxious or stressed on the go.

Essential oils and blends can also be used in therapeutic massages when combined with carrier oils. Many stress-reducing oils, such as lavender and clary sage, have been known to reduce pain in certain areas of the body, so this is a good method to use if you have any stubborn aches.
