FriYAY: Relaxation Edition

Welcome to FriYAY: Relaxation Edition. It might be an understatement to say that 2020 has been a bit stressful so far. Okay, it’s definitely an understatement. So this week, we decided to focus on putting the mind at ease. We’ve brought together a few of our most relaxing essential oils to help you achieve a calm, peaceful mindset. This FriYAY, let’s all just take a minute to unwind.

FriYAY Relaxation Edition -- Relax, Blue Cypress, Patchouli

Blue Cypress

Blue Cypress has a distinct scent profile of balsam, wood, and smoke. It is known to have a grounding, “fixative” effect on the mind. When diffused, this essential oil promotes a healthy respiratory system and helps to instill a calm, soothing atmosphere. It truly is ideal for use during stressful situations. This essential oil is also a great topical choice when it comes to irritated or blemish-prone skin. Plus it works quickly as a soothing solution for bug bites and minor wounds. For that, you should use a dilution of up to 3% with a carrier oil.

You might be surprised to hear that the Blue Cypress is the only blue essential oil that is made from wood via steam distillation. All other blue essential oils are made exclusively from flowers.

How to Use

Diffuse 3-4 drops per 100 mL of water in your diffuser. For topical use, dilute to 1-3% in your favorite carrier oil or lotion.

*This oil is thick and tenacious and might solidify in colder temperatures. Put it in a resealable plastic bag and let it sit in warm water for about ten minutes to help soften it up.

FriYAY Relaxation Edition -- Relax, Blue Cypress, Patchouli

Relax

Each of the ingredients in our Relax blend could have had a cozy home in our FriYAY: Relaxation Edition. But why spend so much time reading about relaxing when you can skip straight ahead to the relaxation part? Suffice it to say that this calming combination of Lavender, Marjoram, Mandarin, Patchouli, Geranium Egyptian, and Chamomile Roman essential oils makes the ultimate relaxation blend.

Relax has an incredibly comforting aroma that helps quiet the mind and is soothing to the senses. You can diffuse it after a rough day (or month . . . or year), or before bedtime to promote deep sleep. This blend is also extremely therapeutic when used in a massage lotion or added to a bath (keep reading for an incredible bath DIY).

How to Use

Add a few drops to your diffuser to create a relaxing atmosphere. For topical use, dilute in your carrier oil or lotion to 3-5%. For children ages 2-10, dilute to 1-2%.

To help reduce the appearance of scars and wrinkles and support your skin health, dilute to 1-3% in a carrier oil.
