Essential oils have been around for a long time and have recently gained in popularity for a wide range of uses. One of its most popular and most effective methods of use is for mental and emotional wellness. The best way to see the benefits of essential oils is aromatherapy, by use of diffusers and aromasticks.
Below I cover the top five essential oils that can be used to promote mental wellness.
1. Bergamot
Bergamot is extracted from the rind or peel of the fruit, leaving an aroma is citrusy but sweet. This is a great essential oil for stress and anxiety.
It soothes the nerves and reduces nervous tension, anxiety, and stress, all of which can help with stress such as high blood pressure, insomnia, and depression.
2. Blue Tansy
Blue Tansy has a sweet, herbaceous scent and is great for relaxing the nervous system. The sweet aroma becomes uplifting—whether it’s an addition to your nighttime routine or diffused throughout your home.
3. Clary Sage
Clary Sage is known for its calming properties and benefits to the skin.
In fact, when a group of essential oils were tested for antidepressant abilities, clary sage showed the most potential by far. This indicates its a potential stand-alone treatment for dopamine regulation.
4. Lemon
Lemon essential oil is currently being used in hospitals, hospices, and with palliative care patients to greatly improve mood.
Although regular use of lemon oil has great physical benefits, the mental benefits are just as significant. Simply smelling lemon oil will give your brain a much-needed boost of clarity.
5. Australian Sandalwood
The use of sandalwood oil into perfumes, diffusers and massage oils is recommended to relieve anxiety and mental stress.
This oil is said to calm the emotions and improve mental clarity.
There are a variety of different oils that will help with your overall mental wellness. Next time you are feeling particularly stressed, or even if you just need a little mental boost, try out one of the above essential oils in your diffuser.
