Each and every one of us experience stress in our lives. Some stresses can easily be gotten over, others take longer and a lot of work.  It’s not such and easy thing at times, to just let it go. That is much more easily said then done.  I recently became a bit stressed, nothing serious yet it started my blood to begin to simmer.  My mothers cat has a major problem with me living with her and when ever he might have the chance to get into any of my two rooms, he will mark his territory.  I guess he is trying to tell me to move. Well the little bugger (I actually had other words going through my mind, but better not put into pen), got into my room and did his thing on some of my freshly washed clothes.  Hmmmmm, my first thought was anger, my next thought was, calm down.  So I got my Stress Away Roll-on and rubbed it vigorously on the back of my neck, on my temples, on my wrists and over my heart. stress-away-rollon

Stress AwayTM is the perfect on-the-go natural solution to combat normal stresses that creep into everyday life. This unique blend of Vanilla–the warm sweet aroma of vanilla calms and reduces tension.* Lime-the delicious scent of lime is robust and refreshing, Ocotea-has a cinnamon base with a kick of exotic luxury. Cedarwood-with one of the highest known levels of Sesquiterpenes, works with the brain to improve relaxation. Copaiba-supports the Stress Away blend with the powerful constituent beta caryophyllene. And Lavender-the floral scent of lavender which is calming and eases any tense mood.

It smells good enough to eat.  Just imagine-Vanilla, cinnamon, and lime with a touch of cedarwood, then a splash of Lavender and Copaiba.

Benefits:

  • Reduce stress any time, anywhere with the convenience and portability of an essential oil roll-on.*
  • Use Stress Away in anticipation of events or situations that may cause mental tension.*
  • Lessening normal everyday stress can lead to improved sleep and elevated state of mind.*

Product Story:

Stress Away is the first product to be named by Young Living Distributors as well as the first to contain the unique stress-relieving combination of Young Living Therapeutic Grade (YLTG) lime and vanilla essential oils. With all these oils in Stress Away it helps to reduce mental rigidity and restore equilibrium.  It also features powerful plant constituents, such as the cedrol found in cedarwood and the eugenol that occurs naturally in vanilla.  Cedrol can help induce relaxation, while eugenol works to reduce nervous tension.  All of these ingredients are expertly blended with the exotic scents of Ocotea, Young Living’s exclusive Ecuador single.*

Adding to the uplifting aroma of Stress Away is a subtle hint of lime, from Young Living’s unique coumarin-free lime essential oil.  Regular lime, like most citrus essential oils, contains coumarins that are potentially photo-sensitizing and damaging to the skin.  Young Living’s Therapeutic-Grade lime essential oil minimizes any skin sensitivity, particularly when used in while in the sun.

How to use:

Shake well and apply generously to wrists, neck, arms, or anywhere you love experiencing therapeutic grade essential oils.

The other day I reached for my Stress Away Roll on to calm down.  One of my moms cats can’t seem to get used to me being around and he feels he needs to mark his territory at times and only in my two rooms.  One day I forgot and left my door open, he got into my room and did his thing on some of my freshly laundered clothes.  Grrrrrrrrrrrr.  I sat down, took a few deep breaths breathing in the aroma of the Stress Away Roll-on that I had applied to my wrists and told my self this is a cat and he is doing what he does and will not change, so just let it go!! I did feel better and it was a nice feeling.  I am going to have a talk with him, his name is Smokey, and I am going to tell him; You little bugger, I am NOT moving and I will try harder to remember to close my doors so you can NOT get in my rooms. What do you think?  Will he understand and get over the fact that I am not leaving?  I have my doubts, but it will be fun having a talk with him.

OK, so that story was a small kine (Hawaiian talk) stress story.  All’s I know for sure is that when we have stress in our busy lives it can cause all sorts of problems.  I recently learned that stress is the number one causer of inflammation.  And both stress and inflammation are causes of so many health problems.juggling-stress-people

We all tend to have too many irons in the fire and we are constantly juggling our schedules to try to get everything in, and done.  Consequently if we are able to relax and lower our stress levels we will have a healthier lifestyle.  How can we do this.  There are so many ways and just to name a few would be:

  1. Go for a walk or get some kind of exercise.  It does not have to be strenuous, just something to get your body moving.
  2. Take time to look, feel and smell nature.  You can do this at the same time you are out for a walk.
  3. Listen to soft music.
  4. Put your feet up, read a book, or a magazine.  Or just sit and listen to the wind blowing, or the rain falling.
  5. Diffusing and taking several deep breaths breathing in the aroma of an essential oil, like Peace and Calming
  6. Go to a dog park and watch the dogs having a great time being free of restrictions.
  7. Go somewhere to look at the water.
  8. Gaze at the sky at night.
  9. For some people, crafts are relaxing.  Do something you love to do.
  10. Cook, if that is your passion.  And of course use Young Living essential oils to cook with.
  11. And most importantly, think about your blessings.  In other words:  Count your blessings, not your problems. Prayer is also very wonderful too.

Most of what I have listed does not take a lot of your time, but the time that you take to make time for You Time, will make a difference on how you feel and soon the stress will be away and you will feel good!! May your life become as stress free as possible….
