Essential Oils for Anxiety: Calm Stress, Intrusive Thoughts, and Worry with the Healing Power of Essential Oils
Description
Essential oils for anxiety? You bet! Essential oils can be wonderful tools in supporting your mental health! Last week, on episode 35, I had holistic psychiatrist, Dr Ellen Vora on the podcast, and we talked all about holistic approaches to anxiety, getting to the root cause, and even finding healing.
Since we love all things essential oils and holistic health and wellness here at Whimsy + Wellness, we wanted to follow up to last week’s episode, with an episode on using essential oils to support anxiety.
If you’d like to support yourself or someone you love struggling with anxiety with essential oils, then this is the episode for you!
In this episode I walk through:
• 3:46 Essential oils = tools to use alongside professional help
• 6:18 The benefit of being proactive instead of just reactive with our health
• 10:01 Why I love using essential oils for anxiety & how they help
