With the start of school we must address the issues of stress. Children feel the effects of stress and are usually less equipped to deal with the resulting emotions and health issues that surround this condition. This aromatherapy blend can be placed on a tissue and placed in a plastic bag for inhalations throughout the day as needed. It is also wonderful when used in the bath at the end of a particularly long and stressful day.

• 15 drops Bergamot essential oil
• 15 drops Lavender essential oil
• 15 drops Marjoram essential oil
• 15 drops Lemon essential oil

Mix in a 2ml bottle. Inhale directly or blend into a carrier oil for massage at one drop of blend to one ml of carrier oil. Try adding 4-10 drops of the blend directly into a bath (use 1/2 the amount for children). Inhale deeply and enjoy!

To make this aromatherapy bath even more beneficial, blend two tablespoons of honey with one cup of very hot water, add your blend of essential oils and pour this mixture into the running water of your tub. Soothing to the skin and the nerves!
