MY FAVORITE WAYS TO DE-STRESS

Most people believe that stress in our day to day life can affect your body and health, but even I forget that although I'm not literally pulling my hair out because of stress,the affects of stress may extend to my hair and skin. Ask yourself, "what am I doing to relieve my stress?" Doing something for yourself on a regular basis will improve your overall well being.  

My favorite products to de-stress your skin and hair:

Stress fix lotion, bath salts and oil concentrate soothe your skin and body with the aroma of lavender, lavandin and clary sage.  

Damage remedy intensive restructuring treatment can be used weekly to repair stressed hair. This amazing deep penetrating treatment formula uses quinoa protein which strengthens the hair- your hair absorbs only the protein it need! Phellodendron and barley lock in the moisture allowing jojoba and castor oils to restore luster and shine so your hair feels silky soft again.

Here are 3 of my favorite tips to help you de-stress, they may sound cliche but they're popular because they work!

1-EXERCISE- Finding time or energy to exercise can be difficult in our busy lives but find what works for you, whether you want to meditate with yoga, punch something in a kick boxing class, or run away from your stress on a treadmill, I highly recommend this as the best way to let go of stress.

2-LAUGH-Smiling can relieve stress, stimulate your immune system, lower blood pressure, alleviate anxiety and depression, and will improve your perspective on things.

3-RELAX-Visit your Aveda salon and experience a Stress Relieving Ritual, a massage with essential oils to allow you to release that stress in you carry around with you.

My favorite oil for relieving stress:

With the balancing aromas of invigorating peppermint and calming camomile, Aveda's stress-relieving blue oil helps dissolve muscle tension and stimulate energy levels.
