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: a hug for comfort
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.
Present Time: a hug for gratitude
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!
Release: a hug for liberation
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.
Grounding: a hug from Mother Nature
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.
Hope: a hug for optimism
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.
Peace & Calming: a hug for calm
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.
Gathering: a hug for connection
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.

I’m currently defusing lime, lavender and peppermint. Very relaxing to me and my kids. I have a 3 year old with autism spectrum disorder and I use oils on her all the time!
I recently was able to purchase a bottle of valor and I am in love!!!!
Release was another exciting oil to experience.
I like to use Stress Away behind my ears or on my wrist to melt away my worries and a spray of lavender in the evening for relaxation.
Peace and Calming at night and Joy during the day, especially on my morning commute!
I love Stress Free, and sometimes I go for a blend of Ylang Ylang and Lemon!
I love Valor! I use it for myself as well as my daughter who needs a little encouragement now and then. I’ve been wanting to try Release & Gathering.
I need a hug today!!
I diffuse Stress Away on my desk at work! I love it!
I would love to win sacred mountain, as well as all the other giveaways!!!
I really need a hug!! It’s been one of those days for the last week and a half!!! Please pick me to win!!!
I cover my whole body after bathing with jojoba oil and Ylang Ylang. I love the feel of the oil and the smell of Ylang Ylang.
I’m new to essential oils and am obsessed with them. Have a diffuser in every room and also my car. Love the diffuser necklaces and bracelets. I enjoy Stress away and love using Thieves for cleaning. I have been experimenting and making some blends to help with medical issues (i.e. hypothyroidism.
i’m new to essential oils…but am obsessed. I love the stress away and have been experimenting making my own blends too. I also love using Thieves for cleaning. Essential oils has been a game changer for me.
I would love to have these. I use valor on my feet all the time. It is one of my favorites along with panaway. Yes, please.
#FRANKINCENSE in HAIR #HAPPINESS in HEART a testimonial. Ok guys, so who knows what Frankincense is? Before I experienced this BEAUTIFUL BLESSING for what I now believe to be the FIRST TIME this year, my knowledge of this #essentialoil was pretty common yet limited. You see, in compliance with my strong Irish/Italian background, I was raised in the Catholic Church. It was there (and come to think of it only there) that I ever encountered it. We heard about it in the Bible ‘Frankincense & Myrrh’. When used in tradition, Catholic priests will typically burn during specific ceremonies. That is until now. Recently, I attended a meeting in which, I was taught to anoint the crown of my head, with a drop of #YOUNGLIVING Frankincense. Suddenly it was like a veil had been lifted, and suddenly I understood the power of my OWN WOMANHOOD. I thought SPIRITUALITY. I felt FREEDOM. It smelled of REBIRTH & LIFE. Most important to me, I felt my FEMALE ENERGY counterpart, and with male energy together they created PERFECT NATURAL HARMONY. Yes, Putting ONE DROP into my little ‘space bun’ on top of my head did all this! THIS MAGICAL OIL GIVES ME PEACE!
Love using lemongrass it seems to just ground me
Super new to YL , loving my journey.Bought diffusor necklace. Simply love the Lavender and the aroma it has when I diffuse it. Made my own serum with it and Frankincense for my dark circles. So far good results and good enough to being smile on my face.
I have been in and out of the hospital since January due to a rare disease I have. Oils have helped me so much and I am so glad I decided to join the oil family.
I love Stress Away or Breathe Again when I need uplifting, comforting scents.
I love to use Stress Away or Breathe Again for times I need extra comfort, or in really trying emotional times when I need an uplifting scent.
Scared Mountain and Joy are my new favorite of the week.
While my collection of oils is small- I use Stress Away to help when I am feeling overwhelmed. Would love to add a few more blends to my routine.
I love Stress Away, and Peace and Calming and recently bought Valor! Love!
I’m fairly new, but my husband is hooked on having lemongrass diffusing when we go to bed. Sometimes I add a couple drops of peppermint to brighten it up. I really want to try Valor!
I love love love grounding. I use this during my times of OCD and it reall calms me down. I also use peace and calming and stress away. My 8 yr old grand daughter loves stress away. She says it smells like pancakes.
Harmony, Release, and Sara are my favorites. I also love Humility and Valor for those days I dread going to work, forcing a smile to convince myself otherwise.
I am in love with so many oils! Lavender, Cedarwood, Thieves and Purification to help me sleep, Endoflex and Valor in my diffuser, anything citrus in my diffuser for a good cleaning mood, Rosemary and Lemon to keep me focused and I could go on and on…….🤗
I love Peace & Calming II!! It has a wonderful smell and totally relaxes me or gets me in the mood for meditation.
These oils sound great! I can’t believe I’m saying this but all my oils bring me comfort!
I am new to oils and new to Young Living. I used Valor in my car right before a state test. It helped me gather my thoughts and embrace the moment. I look forward to the chance to try these other oils of emotional wellness.
I love all of these Blends :) Valor is my favorite.

I love using jasmine in my necklace diffuser, it keep my mood uplifted throughout the day.
Peace n calming is the perfect wind down before bed. My comfort oil.
Patchouli is another calming oil for me. Love all my oils!
I love the name of this Blog–“Hug in a Bottle.” It definitely piqued my interest! In terms of the oils I use for spiritual upliftment, Frankincense and Faith would be at the top of my list. In terms of the oils described above, I use Valor on the soles of my feet every morning. It’s a great way to start the day!~ Thank you, Tahira
I bought a bottle of My Destiny from the convention website and i think i actually mastered copying it
I hope they eventually bring it out for sale because it’s one of my favorites.
I use valor for relaxing after a long day. Peace and calming is my favorite for sleeping soundly. Stress Away is also one I like for winding down.
I just became a member today, and this was a huge jump for me. I have the tendency to need to research everything to death. I’ve “stalked” my oily friends and their classes, and I know I just needed to give oils a personal try to create my own story. I’m excited to see what a difference they will make in my families health and vitality. To me, this is huge…and I could probably use a “Valor Hug” right about now. :)
Use Stress Away and Lavender Daily before bed to wind down after a long day. Have Valor on my list for next month and recommended it to a friend that has a fear of failure and is afraid to try new things in hopes it will calm her.
Valor, frankincense, abundance and lavender are favorites. Quick sniff of the oils give me the pick me up needed to finish the work day.
A hug from gentle baby. It is like a newborn smell.
The hug from gentle baby. It is like a newborn smell.
I love Valor, Gathering and Present Time. I use them when I go out places as my perfume and I always get such great compliments.
For me, Northern Lights Black Spruce is definitely my go to oil for ALL emotional support! I prefer to wear it on my chest, over my heart and on my wrists! It’s truly amazing to me just how grounding and stabiliazing this wonderfully smelling oil really is! The confidence and positivity that come with it is phenomenal!
I am new to YL and already feel my life has been so enhanced by what I am discovering and the oils I am using. Look forward to expanding my collection and horizons.
Would enjoy all of them.
I really like Sacred Mountain as well as Release and Valor💕👌💕. Want to use all of these beauties-never too many hugs!!!
I love Stress Away I have to say that is my go to oil. I have fallen in love with Believe lately. It is funny how you do not realize how the oils affect you until you actually stand back and observe your behavior……..
My favorite oils for peace and comfort are Cedarwood, Lavender, Peace and Calming, Frankincense and Valor. These oils will always be part of our household.
I am new to YL and have never used these oils. They sound wonderful!!
I need a very big Young Living hug. My father passed away 2 weeks ago and it is very sad in our house. Dad left a very big whole in this world. I would love to win these and be enveloped in a Young Living hug
I am thrilled that Valor is back. It is one of my favorite oils that I use several times a week for support. Now that it’s back, I think I’ll include it daily. Love my Valor!
I love Stress Away. Such a wonderful, relaxing scent. I’d love to try all of these oils :)
