Which essential oils to use for stress, why they work, and how to use them!

As an Aromatherapy educator, I’ve guided people to use essential oils for over 20 years, showing them things like how to use essential oils for pain relief, what safety concerns to be aware of, and yes—which essential oils to use for stress.

It’s so important to me to base all of my suggestions on science and research (and along with that, experience!).

All of the essential oils I’m about to share have been researched. They’ve been shown to have components that can genuinely help calm the nervous system, and help us feel relaxed.

Do you have a few reliable “go to” essential oils for stress relief?

You will after you finish reading this post!
