Yes! Everyone needs a bottle of Stress Away! | Verna Smoker




Stress Away!  AHHH;  it has to be one of my favorite oils!. And not just because of what it does for me and how it makes me feel, but oh my word....it smells heavenly!

 (I realize I say that a lot, but I truly do love it!

Stress Away is a blend of Copaiba, Lime, Cedarwood, Vanilla, Ocotea, and Lavendar  Essential oils.

A 5ml bottle comes in the Premium Starter Kit.  Attaching a roller filament to it  (from the starter kit) makes it easy and a convenient way to apply it.

I could literally sniff this oil all day long and not tire of it!

When I get up in the morning it's a good day when I wake up feeling good. For some reason about every two weeks I get this crazy annoying head tension and immediately.... I go to my shelf of oils.

I look at my oil shelf like a shelf of Doctors and I choose one or....several depending on what's up. 

More times then not I go for Stress-Away as my first line of defense. It relaxes me and gives me a sense of calmness.

There are many oils and YL products that I use for head tension. The oils that seem to help me the most are PanAway, Clove, and Peppermint. What works for me may not work for you. Our bodies all react differently.

I suggest trying many different oils till you find one that works well for you. 

I am so so thankful I have a tool box full of options! That is why I bought the Premium Starter Kit from the start. I immediately had myself 12 oils and a diffuser! And you can't beat that deal! If you would buy all the items in the Premium Starter Kit separately, you would be paying almost double the price!

Oh how I wish I I would have had this oil when I was a teenager! I could have saved myself from lying on the floor....literally crying due to so much belly discomfort!   

If you deal with feelings of irritability, mood swings and anxiousness, then Stress Away is a must-have on your oil shelf as well.

Simply apply a few drops behind your neck or on you belly or really wherever you want.

Progessence Plus is another product that is a life saver for that "Time Of The Month" and all things PMS.

More ways to use Stress Away....

Here's a fun idea;:  Add 1-2 drops to a glass of water for a refreshing beverage. Who Knew?  

Do  you have a hard time unwinding and going to sleep at night? Try applying Stress-away on your neck or the bottom of your feet. 

You can even make a spray and spray your pillow and sheets and you're  soon off to la la land.

It's easy peasy to make....


INGREDIENTS
Here's what you need:
4 0z. glass spray bottle                                         
12 drops Stress Away Essential Oil
12 drops Lavender Essential Oil

I keep a bottle of Stress Away in my purse and in my car at all time. (along with many others oils) when I'm out and about. Sometimes all the traffic can get to me and stresses me out! Again...Stress Away to the rescue!
I can quickly apply one drop in the palm of my hands, rub them together, then cup over my nose and take a deep breath in. Inhaling oils is very beneficial. Search the internet, you will find it fascinating!

Become a human diffuser by wearing it as a perfume.

So there you have it! Get yourself some Stress Away!

The moment we heard the doctor say…


“ITS A BOY”


My husband and I were over the top excited with the birth of our second child.


Those words were music to our ears, UNTIL the music was drowned out by, “Your baby boy has a birth defect, your son is born with spina bifida”. The next few days were a blur of emotions. I was scared, really scared.


I was 22 years old. We were young parents. This was not suppose to happen!


We were told that our baby would need a shunt placed in the ventricles of his brain to relieve the pressure of the spinal fluid on his brain, better known as, hydrocephalus. This was all so foreign and terrifying. Surgery after surgery became our baby’s life.


FEAR, SADNESS, ANGER, DISAPPOINTMENT, GUILT and BLAME on MYSELF became part of my world. Would our baby boy have brain damage? Would he walk? Let alone…live?

Surgeries and long hospital stays all took a toll on my emotional well being.


Instead of being raw and vulnerable with my feelings, I buried them. I was “Super Mom” (or at least that’s what I thought). I learned to wear a mask and I was good at it. I looked the part and I acted the part because I was “Super Mom”. 


However, I pushed my feelings down DEEPI pretended they were not there. This way I DID NOT NEED TO FEEL so deeply. It took awhile to notice, years to be exact, but I was slowly losing control of my emotions. My stress was going through the roof. Panic attacks and depression became real in my life.


Years passed.... 


At the age of 23, our son developed a brain infection which caused him to have colonic status seizures (you know, the kind that do not stop except through medicinal interventions). TERRIFYING to watch!

To top it all off, my husband survived a heart attack (thankfully he is doing well), my mom died of breast cancer, and a few years later my dad died of bladder cancer.


All of this added even MORE STRESS and WORRY.


By Gods grace, and because of our deep faith in HIM, we have and continue to weather the storms. 


Because of the RESEARCH I've done, today, WE DO LIFE differently. We’ve discovered ways to implement and make changes that support our IMMUNE SYSTEMS as well as our EMOTIONAL and BRAIN health. We’ve made changes in the amount of TOXINS that we surround ourselves with. We have become more aware of how “toxic exposure” has an affect on the internal structure of our brain and can trigger both short and long term effects. 


I’ve also found ways to manage my stress level. Those terrifying panic attacks no longer torment me. We have  found the tools we need to live our BEST LIFE, and for that, I am grateful. 


It's our life, and though there are parts of it that we continue to look for solutions in, we will continue to move forward. 


LIFE IS A JOURNEY, and it is BEAUTIFUL. 


If any part of my story connects with your own story I would love to chat and connect with you.
