When I’m feeling stressed, my favorite combination of essential oils is Neroli/Petitgrain Co-Distill, Bergamot, Sweet Basil and Clary Sage. I call it my Amazing Synergy Blend and I feel wonderful just talking about it!
There’s this sharpness and sweetness and tang and balsamic note and…well, there’s so much to share with you about this combination! Here’s what’s in it:
- Sweet Basil (Ocimum balisicum ct linalool) – it has this wonderful herbaceous, spicy sweet scent. As much as you love to have it in your salad or spaghetti sauce, it’s even better as an essential oil. It helps with the occasional upset stomach, stimulates healthy functioning of the immune system, helps support clear thinking, and brings clarity to the mind.
- Neroli/Pettigrain Co-Distill (Citrus aurantium var amara) added to that smells SO good! The flowers and leaves of the Citrus Aurantium tree are distilled together to make this amazing oil that is used to support sleep, reduce anxiety and muscle spasms. It is deeply sedative and is amazing for anxiety as well as calming and soothing for the heart. I love this scent so much that I put it in nearly everything I blend!
- Clary Sage (Salvia sclarea) rounds out this amazing blend – If you haven’t taken a whiff of it then you don’t know what you’re missing! It’s sweet, fruity, floral and herbaceous and it’s this herbaceous tone that makes it so appealing. Clary Sage relaxes nervous tension, anxiety, depression and stress; eases menopause discomfort and supports healthy lung function.
- Bergamot (Citrus bergamia) is a go-to oil for every aromatherapist. Bergamot is universally known to help lift a cloud of depression and assists with reducing pain and inflammation. Emotionally and energetically, Bergamot is deeply relaxing and restorative – and I love the citrusy scent.
How Does This Synergy Blend Help With Stress?
Where this blend really shines is to help you with stress. There are times when life simply happens and your stress level is higher than normal. When you have to face what’s going on, then it’s good to have a helping hand – especially a helping hand that relaxes you and boosts your immune system at the same time! 
It’s my favorite combination for the emotional support it offers. Each oil in and of itself is emotionally uplifting – in particular the Clary Sage and Basil. The synergy of these four oils is amazing for your senses and for any kind of anxiety or stress.
I put my combination in a diffuser that I use every day, especially at the markets. I’ve had so many people ask me “what smells so good?” Once they get a whiff of my personal synergy blend, they want it, too! I call it my Amazing Synergy Blend.
