A gentle, aromatic escape when life feels loud

Young Living Stress Away® was created to help soften that internal noise and support a calmer, more grounded atmosphere. It’s a blend that feels like a quiet exhale, whether you’re at home, at work, or moving through a busy day.

How to Use Stress Away® Once You Bring It Home
1) Diffuse to soften the mood of a room
• Add 3–6 drops to your diffuser.
• Perfect for workdays, homework time, evening routines, or anytime you need a reset.
Try this: Pair diffusion with a slow inhale and a gentle drop of your shoulders.
2) Use topically (diluted) as a calming personal scent
• Apply to wrists, neck, or shoulders after dilution.
• Start with 1 drop Stress Away® + 2–4 drops carrier oil.
This creates a soft aromatic “boundary” that helps you move through your day with more ease.
3) Make a simple roll‑on for on‑the‑go comfort
In a 10 mL roller:
• 5–10 drops Stress Away®
• Fill the rest with Young Living V‑6®
Roll on whenever you need a moment of calm.
4) Use it in your bedtime wind‑down
• Diffuse in the evening, or
• Apply (diluted) to shoulders or feet after a warm shower.
Repeating the same aroma nightly can become a powerful cue that it’s time to rest.
5) Create a gentle “calm space” room mist
In a 2 oz spray bottle:
• 10–20 drops Stress Away®
• Distilled water
• Optional: a splash of witch hazel
Shake before each use. Mist linens or the air to create a peaceful atmosphere.
Safety Notes
• Citrus oils can increase photosensitivity. Avoid direct sun/UV exposure on the area for 12–24 hours after topical use.
• Always dilute for children and use extra caution during pregnancy/nursing.
• Avoid eyes, inner ears, and sensitive areas.
