Some days your skies are clear, blue, and beautiful—and some days your picnic plans are interrupted with an unexpected storm warning. But don’t worry! Ruined plans can be a bummer, but the sun will come out again soon. In the meantime, try one of these essential oil blends that will remind you of getting a great, big hug!
SARA™ is a sweet blend of Geranium, Ylang Ylang, and Rose. Think of SARA as a big sister, ready to wrap you up in a quilt, hand you a cup of cocoa, and comfort you with compassion. Try rubbing a drop of this blend onto your wrists when you feel like you could use a listening ear. Dilute it with a few drops of a carrier oil to keep your skin happy.
If you have way too many alarms set on your phone, an ever-growing to-do list, or a pile of dirty dishes that keeps doubling in size, you might want to reach for Present Time™. Diffuse this delicate scent as you take a minute to reconnect with the present and let go of the expectations you have for yourself. Once you feel calmer, consider doing those dishes before the leftovers grow legs!
Ready to let go of some of the “nope” from your day? Throw on some jams, roll out your yoga mat, and diffuse Release™. After stretching out and focusing on your breathing, you might just feel like saying, “Heck yes!” instead.
Sometimes all we need is a little nature. Even if you can’t get outside, you can connect with your roots by taking a tech detox for a few hours while diffusing Grounding™. This blend of White Fir, Black Spruce, and Pine combines into a forest-inspired aroma. Close your eyes and breathe in the scent of the great outdoors as you enjoy some quiet time.
Looking for some sunshine? Try a little Hope™. While it can’t really change the weather, it might just be the bright spot on a dark day. This gentle blend can be added to a favorite lotion, diffused, or applied topically.
Couldn’t we all use a little more Peace & Calming® in our lives? This gentle blend is one of our most popular essential oil blends, and for good reason! Whether you need a bear hug or are trying to settle in for a night’s hibernation, diffusing this scent adds a special something to the end of a long day.
It can be hard to gather your thoughts after a long day. Or gather your family for dinner. Or gather strength to keep up on your goals. Sound familiar? Try diffusing Gathering™ as you turn daily chaos into calmness by journaling, meditating, or writing an award-worthy to-do list.

Ok. Valor is A-Mazing!! Sacred Mountain so very up lifting. Haven't tried Present time but would love to! Thanks Young Living who's better than you?
Diffusing Release is a wonderful way to unwind and let go of the mental baggage of the day.
Valor is my hug in a bottle... I have one win my car one in my purse and a bottle on the shelf.... Its changed my life...I've been able to wean myself off of prescription meds for anxiety...with the daily multiple use of Valor.....Thank you Young Living
After 9 hours of travel, our landing was delayed due to weather and we had to circle an extra hour. I don't enjoy flying so I always carry my oils and apply Valor over my heart to give me courage. Leaving my kids and grand kids on the west coast made me emotional and sad, so Joy went on my pulse points. When we finally landed, all of the food kiosk's & restaurants were closed, so now we're hungry; thank you Slique Bar's for filling the void and Peppermint for relieving the pressure on my temples! We get to the gate only to find our flight is delayed for two more hours. Peace and Calming and Stress Away relaxed me and when we finally got home at 3 am, I diffused Lavender so we could get a restful night and hit the ground running at 7am. Thanks for the YL hugs that got us through a very long and stressful travel day!
Thank goodness I used Valor before hiking in Yellowstone National Park last week. My husband, myself and four others had to run from a startled bison on one trail. Then we conquered a moderately strenuous trail on the side of a mountain in heavy grizzly territory after that. I always have my Stress Away with me and had to use it while clinging to the rocks on that one. But without either I wouldn't have even tried hiking, so thank you Young Living for helping me make some pretty awesome memories.
I LOVE lavender and cedarwood when I'm having trouble falling asleep. I also use Stress Away almost daily after hard days at work!
Diffusing Rosemary...Northern Lights...Cypress. ..it's like a walk in the woods & is SO relaxing!
StressAway is my go to oil for calming my world. I wear it for my personal scent almost every day. So delicious! My next is vetiver, which makes me feel like I am in the mountaines, with its earthy scent. I'm going to try Sacred Mountain today, and I have Gathering on order. I use several oils every day, and use my iTOVi scanner every other day to see exactly what my body says it needs.
Love Release and Valor. Also Peace and Calming.
Surrender often lets me release the tension of disappointment, and I love Hope for the rainy days that make me feel down. I often wear White Angelica in my YL diffuser necklace when I need something to carry me through a difficult day.
