BOOST YOUR MOOD WITH HOME FRAGRANCE DURING QUARANTINE/SELF ISOLATION
What day and time is it everyone?!!! I truly feel as though I am living in a twilight zone for the last few weeks. I have been self isolating for almost 2 full weeks now and as a natural introvert I am really not going too stir crazy yet! But I will tell you my anxiety is at an all time high so I have been struggling lots. I have been doing anything and everything to keep panic attacks at bay and am trying to get sleep even though that has been very challenging. One thing I have been reminded of is how much aromatherapy helps me!!!!!
Fragrance products really have a positive impact on my emotions and mindset, especially during a time when life seems sooooo incredibly overwhelming. My feeds have been flooded with #SelfCare posts that support both mental and physical health during this oh-so-strange time. From at home pilates and barre workouts, skincare routines, healthy comforting recipes and ‘how to’s on how to keep sane; all of these things help give me a little dose of normality and encouragement! ‘Making the most’ of a global pandemic which is a good idea but in retrospect it also has us applying unnecessary pressure to ourselves in already tenuous times. Like I am sorry but I cannot even focus right now to make a DIY hair masque and organize my spices alphabetically into some DIY jars. I cannot focus to score perfect sourdough loaves and start gardening based on an astrological chart.
I am worn out and I am scared and I am just trying to keep myself together here while encouraging the rest of you to stay the heck home to help flatten the curve.
So we all know that fragrance doesn’t only make us smell good but it has the ability to make us FEEL good too. By simply lighting a candle, opening the window for fresh air or washing your hair with your favorite scented shampoo you are certainly doing yourself a world of good.
Fragrance whether in hair products, perfume, candles, diffusers essential oils or cooking products can affect the memories in our brain and have the ability to elicit a range of positive loving emotions. How cool is that??!!
I am so thankful for my amazing friends at Alora Ambiance for sending me some wonderful diffusers and candles to let a little Spring in and help boost my mood!!! Alora Ambiance has been written about many times before on my blog but they truly are just a favorite. And I cannot help but think about Italy when I think of this beautiful brand.
from italy with love
Alora Ambiance is a story of two sisters living in Italy who returned to their Southern Minnesota roots and created a luxury home fragrance brand.
For Spring I am happy to be enjoying the Agrume diffuser. It’s perfect for all you citrus lovers! Agrume is an invigorating montage of grapefruit, orange and eucalyptus.
Also enjoying Isola. Isola's floral mix of gardenia, tuberose and fig is one of their most popular fragrances. It’s one of the lightest fragrances in the collection and perfect for a bedroom.
And Bimbi! Bimbi is just sooooo fresh!! It just screams hello..Spring is here. The combination of lavender, chamomile and bergamot in Bimbi makes it one of the most citrusy fragrances. Originally created with the nursery in mind but it works equally well in bathrooms, kitchens and laundry rooms.I love this candle in the bathroom while I take a bubble bath!!!!!
These three fragrances are available in the diffusers and candles BTW!
They also make the most beautiful gift sets if you want to treat someone that may be going through a hard time through all of this. Each a perfect pairing of their signature diffuser and complimentary candle, the curated sets make for an unforgettable gift, even if that special someone is you!
Hang in there everyone!!!
