Take time for you
Sometimes the pace of life can feel relentless – putting high expectations
on yourself, working later, keeping the house in order and multi tasking.
It’s easy to feel caught up in a circle of being stressed and worn out.
A good night’s sleep can
help keep stress levels
at bay, helping you to
think more clearly and to
recharge your body, which
is arguably your most
important asset.
Turning off your mobile phone
before getting into bed and
allowing morning light to creep in
will help you wake naturally. The
therapists at Anu swear by Neal’s
Yard Good Night Pillow Mist for
aiding a good night’s rest, and
also recommend taking a little
time in the day to just sit quietly
or have a quick walk to get air in
to the lungs. Candles at dinner
will create a calming atmosphere,
as does taking your time when
eating. Always try to be good and
kind to yourself.
Listed below are some of the
aromatherapy-based Remedies
to Roll that the Anu team use to
help shift their mood, bringing
positivity to relieve any anxiety
and depression and helping them
through, at any time of day or
night.
Energy Roll:
A perfect pick-me-up when
you’re in need of a quick energy
boost. The invigorating blend of
rosemary, lavender, geranium
and grapefruit will revitalise your
spirits and energise your body and
mind. Keep on your desk or in your
handbag and apply throughout
the day to help overcome lethargy
and weariness.
Night Time Roll:
Prepares the body and mind for
a more restful night. The soothing
aromas of neroli, rose and romas
chamomile, work together to
promote a sense of calm and
relaxation when it’s time for bed.
Keep on your bedside table and
use as part of an evening ritual to
help you unwind.
Study Roll:
A refreshing pick-me-up when
you need a little help to focus on
the task ahead. The stimulating
blend of clove, orange and
rosemary brings you clarity and
confidence and leaves you feeling
recharged and ready to study. Keep
on your desk during periods of
intense concentration or when a
clear, balanced mind is needed.
How to Use:
To release the aromatherapy,
you simply roll onto your wrists
and temples and breathe in the
Essential Oils.
