National Stress Awareness Day: How to De-Stress With These EO Blends

Without exception, life gets stressful. No one is immune to the pressures of the day-to-day grind, and stress doesn’t necessarily build up just from running around checking tasks off a to-do list; emotions are a catalyst for stress too. To put it simply, living can be a struggle on any given day.

So, how do we begin to decompress? Well, acknowledging National Stress Awareness Day is a good start. Every year, the U.S. observes April 16th as a day to take a deep breath and relax. And the date to celebrate peace and calm is not arbitrary. For those taxpaying adults out there, you’ll see that the 16th of April is the day tax season officially ends.

Whatever your source of stress — be it financial, familial, occupational or all three — we’d like to take a leisurely stroll through some of our favorite synergy blends that can help you wind down.
