5 Essential Oils to Lower Stress and Enhance Happiness Over the Holidays











Are you trying your best to not let the busyness of the season dim your holiday spirit?

All the extra strain and stress of planning additional gatherings, financial concerns, and family triggers, on top of the turmoil of current world events, can lead to unwelcome physical and emotional havoc. 

Thankfully, we have some natural tools to subdue these negative effects and to support us during these trying times. 

Mind-body techniques, lifestyle practices, and aromatherapy all can be helpful to heighten our mood and calm our brains and bodies when life gets unsettling.

In my previous holiday stress post, I began to explain how essential oils can be used to promote emotional wellbeing when things get hard. 

In this article and video, I discuss some of my other adored oils.

Topics include:
  • Nine ways that essential oils calm the brain and body
  • Three of my favorite single oils to ease the mind and lower cortisol, the stress hormone (clary sage, lavender, and bergamot)
  • Two essential oil blends, Stress Relief and Joyful Blends, to assist with the mind-body impacts of overwhelm
I hope this information can help you enjoy your holidays with less worry and more joy.


I also have additional resources for you in my resource section.

Meet Sarah LoBisco

 
I believe that the body and mind can heal when given the right mindset and right tools.

I envision a world where people feel empowered to take action to reclaim their mental, emotional, spiritual, social, economic, and physical health and use them to live their highest potential! 

Essential oils, natural medicine approaches, my education in naturopathic and functional medicine, and various holistic mind-body healing methods, combined with complementing conventional medicine, are some of the tools in my toolkit to guide people on their journey to healing.

It was only when I struggled with my own physical and emotional pain that I became open to holistic and natural methods. That's when essential oils found me (through my mom) and when I found naturopathic and functional medicine... and the rest is history!

Join me on this journey, and you may just happen to uncover the best version of yourself in the process!

Explore my page, use the free resources, and become engaged!

If you have any questions or feedback, I'd be happy to hear from you.

Feel free to contact me and let me know how I can best support you with essential oils or any of the resources I offer, including my online course which you can find here.
