Want to know the number one complaint I hear from my friends? STRESS! It affects all of us – Did you know that three out of four doctors visits are stress-related? It’s true – Stress has very real, physical manifestations. I’ve been taking big strides to de-stress in my life, which includes putting down the cell phone, walking away from screens, and finding some creative outlets for my energy. I definitely recommend practicing more mindfulness and expressing gratitude in one’s life. Try writing what you are thankful for in a gratitude journal to help you be present. I also LOVE an adult coloring book that you can find at your local Hallmark Gold Crown Store to ease your stress levels. And I love this amazing DIY rollerball to help you de-stress through aromatherapy!

DIY AROMATHERAPY ROLLER BALL
Ingredients

  • 10 ML (1/3 OZ) dark glass rollerball
  • 1/3 OZ pure jojoba oil
  • 40 drops lemon essential oil
  • 6 drops lavender essential oil
  • 15 drops neroli essential oil

Instructions

  1. Mix the essential oils into the jojoba oil. I use a tiny measuring cup with a mini spout, so I can pour directly into bottle with no spillage.
  2. Shake gently before use.
  3. Apply to your wrists, temples, the skin behind your ears, and even on the soft skin between your toes.

*Safety tip: If you are not used to using essential oils, I recommend you do a little patch test before rubbing it all over yourself! Simply rub a little of each oil onto your inner arm. Cover with a band aid, and leave for 12 hours. If there is no redness or swelling, you are good to go.
