How to Use Essential Oils in Travelling?

Using essential oils for travel seems to bring the wheels of time together in our bodies in a gentle way. Essential oils are especially beneficial to those who suffer from the claustrophobic conditions of public transportation; an overwhelming or frequent conflict between travel companions, unfamiliar stimulus in the immediate surroundings; and panic caused by financial or safety concerns.

Before you travel – add two drops each of Peppermint and Eucalyptus essential oil to your bath water. After you arrive at your destination, add two drops of Lavender and Frankincense essential oil to your bath water. If you prefer to shower, put a small amount of nut or vegetable oil in your hand, add the essential oils and rub them into your body.

While traveling can be enjoyable and exciting for some people, it is a common source of stress for others (especially during a global pandemic). The physical and mental effects of travel-related stress may be tough to avoid, but they are manageable.
