Support your anxiety with these Tisserand Aromatherapy mood boosters
Anxiety is on the rise, and in just one decade this debilitating mental illness has trebled among young adults, affecting 30% of women aged 18 to 24, and has increased across the board among men and women under 55.*
The 2008 financial crash, austerity, Brexit, climate change, social media and most recently Covid-19 have all had a major impact on our stress levels. Lifestyle changes like implementing exercise, meditation, and good sleep hygiene, while ditching stimulants like caffeine are helpful, but so too is aromatherapy.
“For those looking for a natural remedy to ease anxiety, studies have shown that the simple act of inhaling an essential oil can elicit a change in mood and can alleviate symptoms of stress such as shortness of breath, digestion issues and changes to our sleep pattern. They are also known to promote relaxation, to further aid in the relief of stress and anxiety,” shares essential oils expert, Jo Kellett.
The question is then, which essential oils work best when it comes to quelling anxiety?
“Most of us have heard about the stress soothing properties of lavender and chamomile but these have sedative like effects that are great for helping to reduce anxiety at night but may well be too relaxing during the day. However, nutmeg, coriander and Melissa are the perfect daytime antidote” explains Kellett.
Lucky for us Tisserand Aromatherapy has made it easy for us with their Real Calm and Total De-Stress collections.
