Hello fellow stress heads!

My name is Lucy, I am a 20 year old University student who is simply seeking to find peace in such a frantic world.

In the last year, I have been personally suffering with the effects of anxiety and stress during both my academic studies and in family life. In this period of time, I have found it increasingly hard to take my own ‘time out’ away from everything to simply relax, rest and unwind. Between work and home we have to manage a lot of responsibilities as individuals and alongside this comes the inevitable – stress. 

Scientifically proven, we all know that stress is not good for both our physical and mental health and can be something which can effect our lives for many years…

Stress is ultimately our body’s response to pressures from a situation or life event. What contributes to stress can vary hugely from person to person. Some common features of things that can make us feel stressed include experiencing something new, something that could threaten yourself, or feeling that you have little control over a situation.

So if we can’t avoid stress, whether it be acute or chronic, how can we reduce it?

In this blog I will therefore be aiming to share the best products to relax, de-stress and boost your overall wellbeing.

Whether it be related to herbal teas or scented oils for your pillow, I will help as best as I can to express my own journey as an individual who experiences stress on a daily basis and the ways I try to relax and stay calm.

Therefore, after reading through my posts, hopefully you will soon be able to gather some of your own ideas together to make your own life a little less stressful.

Enjoy! L x
