Best Stress Relief Products According to Customer Testimonials
Put Self-Care First with Natural Products to Manage Stress and Tension
September is Self-Care Awareness Month.
The great thing about self-care is it can come in manny different forms - getting a massage or facial, taking a nap, eating a heathy mean, exercising, enjoying your nightly skin care ritual, etc.
For us there is no self-care without managing the effects of stress on our mind and bodies.
In our modern lives we are hit with an onslaught of stressors each and every day. Finding methods to help us get out of the stress cycle is a crucial part of holistic wellness.
That's why we are focusing on stress relief products as a way to practice self-care this month.
Source Vitál Apothecary offers lots of options to ease the feelings of tension and stress. We thought it would be helpful to hear from our customers about some of their favorite products to stress less.

Bath & Body oils are functional aromatherapy products that can be enjoyed in lots of ways inside and outside of the bathroom.
Our special formula is made with pure essential oils blended with nourishing, high quality botanical oils. It is safe and effective to use directly on the skin or added into a bath.
The magic is all in our proprietary Serene Essential Oil Blend of Lavender, Sage and Petitgrain oils that work to create a deep sense of relaxation and the ability to disconnect.
Serene is such a calming blend some refer to it as an aromatherapy glass of red wine because it is so good at letting the mind and body unwind from a stressful day.
Ways to Relax with Serene Bath & Body Oil:
- Create a calming aromatherapy bath
- Keep next to your bed and massage 5-10 drops into your upper chest before going to sleep

Lavender Cleanser
Love this cleanser!
"This is the most wonderful cleanser. It is light, not too foamy, and that soothing lavender scent is divine."
- Mali C.
As we mentioned above skin care is a great way to get in a little self-care.
The ritual of caring for the skin is not only good grooming it is a part of the wind down routine that sends signals to the body that it is time to chill out.
Plus, we've engineered aromatherapy benefits into most of our products so that washing your face provides holistic benefits for your whole self - skin, mind, body and spirit.
In the case of Lavender Cleanser it is the universally loved scent of Lavender Essential Oil. The smell of lavender as well as its physical properties help to promote a sense of calm that soothes the feeling of tension and anxiety.
Then there is the actual feel of this cleanser. The creamy, milky quality feels cooling and gentle on the skin. It rinses off easily and leaves the face feeling clean and hydrated.
No scrubbing or harsh ingredients to kill that peaceful vibe.

After washing the day away with the Lavender Body Lotion its time to pamper the body with the silky-soft Lavender Body Lotion.
Made with that same soothing Lavender Essential Oil and a combination of other skin-loving ingredients such as Shea Butter, Algae extract, and a trio of Camellia, Abyssinian and Argan oils, this lotion blankets the skin with comforting hydration and a soothing scent that immediately starts to put the mind and body at ease.
Plus, Lavender Essential Oil is safe to use on babies and young kids, so use it at night to give your little ones a good night's sleep.

Renew Bath Salts
Love These Bath Salts
"I love the smell and how I feel after my bath. So peaceful."
- Odessa M.
We have mentioned bathing several times during our discussion of self-care practices. The art of bathing goes back centuries and is connected to the idea that there is healing powers in water.
The feeling of floating, being weightless from anything that may be weighing you down and the sense of purification after a cleansing bath can have a powerful effect on our whole self.
Renew Bath Salts are a great way to enjoy the benefits of bathing while helping to rejuvenate the body with a sense of detoxification.
Dead Sea Salts, Rosemary, Cinnamon and Peppermint essential oils combine for a warming, spicy aroma that brings a renewed lightness and purity to mind and body.
Use after an illness to feel refreshed or to after over indulging with a lavish meal and drinks to banish uncomfortable bloating, or anytime you need a pick-me-up.
No time for a bath (or you don't have a bath tub)? Use Renew Bath Salts as a foot soak.
