Back to School & Big Emotions
The first day of school can bring on a multitude of emotions; from excitement to anxiousness and fear. New schools, new teachers, and new classmates can leave your kids with the butterflies. Below are some essential oils you can use to prepare your kids for their new adventure!
Lavender:
Start your kids’ day on the right foot and support a worry-free outlook by diffusing Lavender as you get ready in the morning. Your kids can help fight occasional nervous tension throughout the day by applying a few drops to their wrists or by wearing it as a perfume.
Valor:
Give your kids a boost of confidence and courage by applying Valor to their shoulders, spine, and temples. The empowering scent will help encourage your kids as they try new things! Diffuse Valor in the morning to help them feel brave and grounded while you recite affirmations. Keep a Valor Roll-On in their back pack so they can apply to wrists before a big game, recital, or test.
