Find Time Daily for Rest

Some of the best practices to incorporate are rest, relaxation, massaging, stretching, or mediation. Including essential oils throughout these moments of stillness can enhance these practices.

PastTense, the Tension Blend, is a blend made of Wintergreen, Lavender, Peppermint, Frankincense, Cilantro, Marjoram, Roman Chamomile, Basil, and Rosemary. This fresh, minty blend has a soothing effect, providing relaxation and tranquility to your environment, easing head tension. Simply apply the blend to your neck, shoulders, or behind the ears and breathe in the cooling and comforting aroma while taking a moment to be still.

A good second option to add to your moments of relaxation, and one of the oils in the PastTense blend, is Peppermint. This strong, minty, and vibrant oil can provide a cooling effect, alleviating occasional head tension. Peppermint oil can be purchased as a roller bottle, making application even easier.

If PastTense and Peppermint are overbearing, try some gentler options like Frankincense or Rosemary. These two are great for rubbing on your temples for meditation or massaging.

Deep Blue Rub or Deep Blue oil are two favorites for massaging. The blend includes Wintergreen, Peppermint, Helichrysum, and Ylang Ylang essential oils, making it another option to provide a cooling sensation to targeted areas.

Lavender is such a versatile oil. When taken internally, this gentle oil promotes mental relaxation and a restful night's sleep, something we all need after a long day of discomfort.* Drip a few drops of Lavender into your mouth or utilize the doTERRA Veggie Caps and take it as a pill.

Copaiba essential oil has a masterful list of benefits, especially when it comes to improving our overall health!* Taking the Copaiba Softgels is the easiest way to take advantage of its benefits. Benefits include aid in cell protection and support in healthy cardiovascular, immune, and nervous system function.*

Take time to treat yourself to at least one moment of relaxation or meditation a day. Moments of stillness, paired with some of your favorite essential oils, will be sure to help with stress and provide ease to your day.
