Stress Away

Introduction to Young Living's Stress Away

Young Living's Stress Away has become one of the most sought-after essential oil blends, appreciated for its ability to create an environment of peace and tranquility. Its unique formulation integrates aromatic notes that seek to accompany the mind and spirit in the pursuit of calm, making this blend an ally in daily well-being.

The essence of Stress Away lies in the harmony of its components. Each oil has been selected for its aromatic profile and for the properties traditionally associated with promoting a relaxing environment.

Main Aromatic Composition

The richness of Stress Away is due to a careful selection of pure essential oils, each contributing a unique facet to the blend:

• Lime (Citrus aurantifolia): Renowned for its vibrant citrus aroma, which may help create an optimistic atmosphere and uplift mood.


• Copaiba (Copaifera officinalis): This resinous oil is valued for its soft, woody aroma, traditionally associated with promoting feelings of calm and a quiet environment.


• Vanilla (Vanilla planifolia): Naturally extracted, vanilla provides a sweet, warm, and enveloping note, which many find comforting and welcoming.


• Cedarwood (Cedrus atlantica): With its deep woody aroma, cedarwood is traditionally associated with a sense of grounding and stability, contributing to an atmosphere of serenity.


• Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia): Widely known in aromatherapy, its floral aroma is associated with relaxation and rest, being a key component in fostering a tranquil environment.

This synergy results in a complex and deeply enveloping aromatic profile, designed to accompany moments of rest.

Aromatic Profile

Suggested Uses in Aromatherapy

Stress Away is versatile in its applications, ideal for those looking to integrate aromatherapy into their daily routine to create a more harmonious environment:

• Environmental diffusion: Can be diffused in the home or office to scent the air and contribute to a general sense of calm.


• Topical application: Can be applied diluted to pulse points, temples, or the nape of the neck to enjoy its personal aroma throughout the day.


• Relaxing baths: Adding a few drops to a warm bath can enrich the relaxation experience, combining the aroma with the benefits of warm water.


• Massages: Diluted with a carrier oil, it can be used in a gentle massage to provide a comforting aromatic experience.

How to Use

Diffusion

• Add 5-8 drops to an essential oil diffuser. Diffuse for 30-60 minutes, three times a day, according to personal preference and space size.

Topical Application

• Dilute 1 drop of Stress Away with 1-2 drops of a vegetable carrier oil (such as Young Living's V-6 Enhanced Vegetable Oil Complex, fractionated coconut oil, or almond oil).


• Apply to wrists, temples, nape of the neck, behind the ears, or on the soles of the feet.


• Perform a patch test on a small area of skin before general application to check for sensitivity.

Other Considerations

• Enrich unscented lotions or creams by adding 1-2 drops per 10 ml of product before application.

Recommended Synergies

Stress Away can be combined with other essential oils to create complementary aromatic profiles, although its composition is already largely complete:

• With Wild Orange: For an even sweeter and more citrusy aroma, which many associate with joy and positivity.


• With Frankincense: To deepen the sense of calm and foster an atmosphere of meditation.


• With Marjoram: May harmonize well to intensify the relaxing properties of the aroma.
