Essential Oils for Relaxation

Relaxation should always have a part of your day, but most people ignore the importance of relaxation and rest. Most people focus on daily work schedules, exercise, home care, taking care of children, and other personal chores for daily living.  Resting the mind and body helps refresh energy and brings back a balance of body strength and fortitude.  I know that when I do not take time to relax and reset, I end up crashing and paying for it with my RSD.  Essential oils for relaxation help me a lot.

Relaxation essential oils can help you forget the day’s stressful events or what you face the next day. Relaxation does not necessarily mean that you are required to sleep. Relaxation includes meditation and drawing your mind away from the stress and into a complete peaceful state. A total relaxation state soothes your whole body and reduces the tiring effects of stress and sleepless nights.

Most people have a busy and hectic life going to work, taking care of children, and finding the time to clean the home (trust me….I am behind on life in general because I am overwhelmed). Essential oils for relaxation can help you relax and stay calm during hard times that would otherwise cause you to lose control from high levels of stress. They can be used at the end of the day to help you unwind and calm your nerves.

You can also use essential oils in aromatherapy within your office. Although the goal for relaxation methods is to calm and create a sense of peace, they do not make you tired. Using essential oils in the office will give you peace throughout the day and help you maintain your temper during high stress moments. Used in the office, the oils will calm your mind during the work day so that you do not feel overwhelmed by stress or deadlines.

There are several essential oils that can help you relax in your home or in the office. Essential oils such as ylang ylang, chamomile, and neroli will help you relax throughout the day without making you tired. Each have their own unique effects, but when they are used together they are a powerful aromatherapy to ultimately make you feel at peace.

Ylang Ylang

Ylang Ylang is an extremely potent essential oil that is sensual and relaxing. The balancing effects from the exotic aroma leaves your whole body and spirit feeling relaxed. It is also a romantic aroma and it is perfect for date night or cuddling up with a loved one at night.

Chamomile Maroc

Chamomile Maroc is probably one of the most popular soothing aromas. This essential oil soothes your mind while relaxing your body. It will help you emotionally to combat the irritability and anger that can happen from a day of high levels of stress. If you are a person who has a hard time withholding strong emotions such as anger, chamomile is a great essential oil to help you calm your anger.

Neroli

Neroli has a combination of relaxation effects that restore your level of peace while rejuvenating your overall energy and body strength. The essential oil is distilled from blossoms of the bitter orange tree. It is an exotic plant that has deep effects on the emotional aspects of your mind. The fragrance can restore your mind to lower levels of stress and disperse the anger left in your body. Irritability will be lessened when this essential oil is used within the office.

All of these oils will help you throughout your day even if used individually. Used together and they will remove the heavy emotional effects of stress and tension. Removing the negative effects of the day can help you maintain your balance, and it is a major factor of dealing with anger management. You will find yourself more productive, and you will have a better customer service friendly attitude. Use these essential oils in combination with other stress relieving oils and you will find your whole presence to be more positive.
