Welcome to my little corner of the Internet. I share my love for fitness, good food, my latest reads, and other random favorites. I hope you stay a while.
Think of Stress Away like a vacation in a bottle. It is the closest thing Young Living has to a vanilla scent, and its name explains it all! Stress Away is a blend of Copaiba, Lime, Vanilla, Cedarwood, Ocotea, and Lavender essential oils. Pop this one in your diffuser, take a whiff straight from the bottle, or use it as a “perfume” to give you all the zen vibes!
Add a roller top (comes in your kit!) right on the bottle of Stress Away and roll on your wrists or the back of your neck. This is a perfect thing to do while sitting in traffic, under a deadline at work, before attempting grocery shopping with the kids, or any other time you just need a minute to calm down. It is also available in a pre-made roll-on if you need more Stress Away in your life!
Ditch the dryer sheets and add a couple of drops of Stress Away to your wool dryer balls when you dry your sheets and towels. You’ll get dreamy smelling sheets that will help you unwind at the end of the day. Want an extra scent boost? Make a linen spray by adding 5-10 drops of Stress Away to a glass spray bottle, a splash of witch hazel and then fill the rest with water. Shake it up, and spray on linens, pillows, and crib sheets! If you need some supplies, you can find all of my favorite oil DIY supplies here.
Do you spend a ton of time in the car? Add a few drops of Stress Away to a cotton ball and stick it in your car’s air vents for a makeshift car diffuser. Now, imagine you’re on a beach with an umbrella drink instead of sitting in traffic.
Long day? Add a few drops of Stress Away and some Epsom salts to a warm bath to unwind before bed.
Get your legs soft and smooth with a DIY sugar scrub! With a stand mixer or handheld mixer, mix together equal parts raw sugar and coconut oil with 10-20 drops of Stress Away until desired consistency. I also love to add 10-20 drops of Grapefruit, too! Store in a glass container. To use it, rub a little bit of the mixture into your legs to help remove any dead skin. Rinse with water to reveal softer, smoother legs!
Diffuse 5-10 drops of Stress Away to create a relaxing environment.
Mix 3-5 drops of Stress Away with 3-5 drops of any citrus oil for a great combination. Try it with Citrus Fresh from your starter kit for a creamsicle scent, or pair it with Lime, Orange, or Bergamont from outside of the kit!
Mix 3-5 drops of Stress Away with 3-5 drops of Peppermint for the yummiest candy cane scent!
Mix 3-5 drops of Stress Away with 3-5 drops of PanAway for a yummy root beer float scent!
