National Relaxation Day calls for us to slow down.
Aromatherapy can transform ordinary moments into restorative rituals. Bubble baths, settling in with a book or simply relaxing at home.
Essential oils have been used for centuries in places designed for relaxation. From ancient bathing rituals to modern spas and luxury hotels.
Let’s explore which essential oils would suit your relaxation rituals.
Why are essential oils used for relaxation?
Scent molecules travel to the limbic system, the part of the brain closely linked to emotion, memory and mood. That's one of the reasons certain scents instantly remind us of a favourite place or make us feel more at ease.
Some essential oils have become especially associated with relaxation:
Bergamot: Feels citrusy, uplifting and balancing.
Cedarwood: Creates a warm, cosy and grounding atmosphere.
Frankincense: Sweet and woody, promoting feelings of peace and relaxation.
Lavender: Soft, floral and often used to aid sleep.
Ylang Ylang: A rich floral aroma, popular in luxury spas
Every essential oil can be enjoyed on it’s own.
When blended, each ingredient to complement the next, creating fragrances with greater depth and impact than a single oil can offer alone.
