The Power of Aromatherapy

Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts that not only smell amazing, but can also have a positive impact on your health and well-being. Aromatherapy involves using essential oils for therapeutic benefits such as soothing headaches, relaxing muscles, calming anxiety, and boosting mood. It’s best to use high-quality essential oils and to use them safely – some may require that you use carrier oils such as olive, coconut, or jojoba oils. Essential oils can make incredibly thoughtful gifts – why not consider an Essential Oil Starter Pack w/ Diffuser as a health-conscious, self-care gift for the women in your life this Mother’s Day?

The Effects of Stress on Your Hair

It has been said that stress can make you go gray or cause you to lose your hair. But can it? Hair loss due to stress can occur after a traumatic life event such as divorce, death, or severe financial worries. This temporary hair loss, called ‘telogen effluvium,’ can also be caused by factors such as hormonal changes, illness, or poor diet. Hair evolves in a cycle of growth (anagen); transition (catagen); and resting (telogen). Prolonged or extreme stress can cause hair to prematurely enter telogen and break more easily. Stressful events can shock the hair cycle, pushing more hair into the shedding phase.
