6 tips to an Un-Stressful Life

So this week is the most stressful week of my entire life. Mid-Terms are filling my schedule. I'm literally living off coffee and granola bars. Through this I have found certain ways to deal with the overwhelming stress... Here are a few tips:

1. Take a bath! I enjoy using with my favorite bath bomb from Lush, "Tisty Tosty". Its amazing and it smells like roses! It also really helps with those dry patches of skin leaving it feel silky smooth after-wards. The bath bomb is also quite romantic leaving real roses to soak with you as you relax.

2. Another tip is to have an Essential Oils diffuser right next to your bed when you're sleeping. My personal favorite at the moment is the Lavender Oil. It not only helps you sleep but its a sweet scent that is also a major stress reliever.

3. Listen to some good chill music. Recently, in order to focus I have been listening to more laid back indie style songs. I am happy to say I have completely fallen in love. If I had to suggest anything I would say listen to Elliot Moss, just his entire album on repeat. It helps to clear my mind and really allow me to focus.

4. Do yoga. I know people cringe at that idea but it really helps me. Just turn on some good music and meditate or do the dreaded warrior pose. Believe me, it works.

5. Try your best to wear what you would usually wear, no matter how late you were up. As tempting as that baggy sweatshirt and sweatpants look try to stay away from those if you don't usually wear them. Wearing clothes to match your mood can only make things worse. When I am stressed I like to try out new styles, it always puts me in a better mood. A little effort can make a world of difference.

6.  Light an amazing candle or wax warmer. I have both and I am honestly obsessed with them! My favorite scents right now are Mahogany Teak wood and a more fresh scent of Cucumber Melon by bath and body works.

Let me know what you think! Hope you enjoyed :)
