Need a hand getting back into your groove? Tisserand Aromatherapy’s Little Box of Motivation is here to save the day!

The beauty equivalent of a mood-boosting pep talk, it includes the scents Happy Vibes, Find Focus and Energy Boost.

“All of these blends have been designed to encourage positivity, motivation, and energy, helping you through your busy day”, says Jo Kellet, Tisserand Aromatherapy Essential Oil Expert.

WAKE UP CALL
We all need a bit of help in the morning. “So start your day by applying Energy Boost to your wrists”, says Jo Kellet, Tisserand Aromatherapy Essential Oil Expert. “Try closing your eyes to enhance your sense of smell and inhale the fragrant, zesty aroma as soon as you get out of bed, or just before. The combination of Orange, Lime and Grapefruit oil is so bright and refreshing. It gives you an instant burst of vitality and encourages feelings of positivity. It is an excellent way to put a spring in your step, even if the weather isn’t playing ball”.

MID-MORNING PICK ME UP
As your energy levels naturally dip, you may need a little encouragement around 11 am. “This is where Find Focus can help”, says Jo. Pull it out from your Little Box of Motivation and apply it to your temples. If possible, close your eyes to boost the effect. However, doing so is not essential, as the beauty of the Tisserand Roller Balls is that they can be discreetly used anywhere, at any time.
The blend contains Rosemary, which helps with focus and concentration and uplifting Grapefruit and Orange leaf – the perfect perfume pep talk.

DON’T FORGET TO BREAK
Our body works to a natural circadian rhythm where we have higher levels of productivity in 90–120-minute bursts. It is important to recognise when you need a break and counteract intense concentration with less focussed tasks, like catching up on admin, emails, having a chat with colleagues or taking a short walk. Your brain and body work better with frequent rest, so make sure you take it.

SEE YA AFTERNOON SLUMP
Our natural circadian rhythm makes us sleepy between 1-3 pm. And when we were all WFH, a mid-afternoon nap was a great way to recharge our batteries. That’s not going to be as possible in the future, so you might want some other ways to invigorate your system. One of the best ways is to drink more water and eat fewer carbs at lunchtime. Plus, if you can, sitting outside for ten minutes in the sun can also reset your internal clock.

Pair these actions with Happy Vibes, says Jo, “this often helps me push through until closing time. The beautiful combination of bright, fresh Lemon Tea Tree, sweet balancing Bergamot and stress relieving Nutmeg all work together to offer a small burst of energy that helps relieve tension and aids the process of winding down for the day.

Apply to your neck, close your eyes for a moment and allow the combination of citrus and warm spicy nutmeg to ease you into your evening.
