Ever Filled With Stress And Anxiety?

Anyone want to raise their hand and say that they NEVER get stressed out or anxious?

Anyone?

I thought so! We all get stressed out and anxious from time to time. It's a part of life and learning to deal with it can be rough, sometimes pretty rough. There are lots of ways to help relieve stress and anxiety, even fairly easy ones. I have some tried and true ways and now I have added one more thing to my arsenal.

Phytopia has a really neat product called Tranquility, that is a blend of specific oils that are known for relaxing your mind and body when stressed. I've been using these oils individually for many years and to have them blended all together in a perfect mixture is so nice! I don't have to count drops of each item and blend it all myself. The fragrance is a little strong, but not overpowering when used correctly. You don't need a lot to get the results you need. I really like the fragrance and so does my husband.

Here's a little about it from Phytopia:
Stress and anxiety are unpleasant to deal with. They can have negative effects on your physical health, mood, relationships and overall quality of life. Too much stress and anxiety are more likely to develop diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and emotional disorders.
The modern world has given us the benefit of advanced medicine to fight off stress, anxiety and the mental, emotional and physical problems that they bring. But advanced medicine also come with side effects and the risk of addiction.
Unlike modern medicine, Tranquility gives you the same level of relief and relaxation without the negative effects. Tranquility is made up of ingredients that have been used for thousands of years for medicinal and health purposes, and can treat various issues thanks to its stimulating and soothing effect on the body.

The prominent calming ingredients of Tranquility include:
~ Rose Oil – The queen of all oils helps combat stress by balancing the body’s hormonal levels and giving you a sweet feeling of relaxation.
~Vanilla – The pure scent of vanilla stimulates mental clarity and helps you feel at home.
~ Geranium Oil – Its pleasant aroma is uplifting and relaxing which helps release negative energy and bring about positive vibes.
~ Orange Oil – Its juicy scent helps liven up your mood and promotes a sense of peace and harmony. 

Use Tranquility regularly to improve your quality of life anytime and anywhere. Just add 3 drops into your bathtub for a more soothing and enjoyable experience. You wouldn't think that 3 drops would do much, but the oil along with the hot water does amazing things for you physically and mentally. Or you can just simply throw it into your bag so it is ready to be used anytime you need some destressing by massaging a few drops into your skin around your shoulders and neck. I even like it massaged into my temple area.

Is this the same as say taking a Valium....NO! But then it won't have the extreme side effects that a drug can have either! It's an easy way to stay calm and relaxed even before the stress hits! It's also safe to use for children. Just use a few less drops and keep away from any part of their body they might put in their mouth. I recommend massaging a little on their upper back.

PainAway Helps With Sore Muscles and Aches

Pain is something I unfortunately have to deal with on a daily basis. Some of it is simply because I am getting older. Some is because I have very bad arthritis in my hands, shoulders, and back. How much pain often depends on the weather, the things I have to do around the house or running errands, and my overall activity level. So I am always on the lookout for help dealing with the pain other than taking a pill.

One thing I and my husband have been trying is Phytopia PainAway Synergy for Muscle Soreness & Pain Relief. This is an alternative to using pills to help deal with pain that I like.

The PainAway comes in a small amber colored bottle to protect the contents from UV light. It is an oil based product that you massage into your affected area to help relieve the pain. Over time, it is supposed to lessen the pain as you use more and more of it, helping to keep pain at bay completely.

Here's what is in it:
Menthol
Balsam Peru Oil
Eucalyptus
Radiata Leaf
Java Citronella
Sunflower
Jojoba
Rosemary
Evening Primrose
Lemon
Lavender Oil

So far I can say it has helped a little, but not a lot. I am thinking that this is the kind of product you could use on a pulled muscle or sore muscles from exercise or a fall. It helps things like arthritis a little, but not enough for what I would like. My husband has noticed on his sore shoulder that he pulled a muscle in, this has helped and he has been enjoying using it. Has it taken away his pain completely? No, but he appreciates any help he can get with it. Complete pain relief will come when the shoulder heals up. But this has been helping him deal with the healing process.

I would suggest if you like using alternative remedies, this would be one to keep in your arsenal.
