Now more than ever we seem to be living with so many stresses. A lot of people have turned to Aromatherapy to help. I do have a love of essential oils and the benefits that they bring. I have found a great way to help with daily stresses through Aromatherapy Multi Sensory Playdough.
Aromatherapy is an ancient practice that uses essential oils to promote physical and mental well-being. Essential oils are extracted from plants and used in various forms such as massage, inhalation, or topical application. This natural therapy has been used for centuries to treat a variety of ailments, from stress and anxiety to physical pain. By using the right combination of essential oils, aromatherapists can help their clients achieve a sense of balance and relaxation.

I have recently been made aware of Aroma Dough. Â A multi-sensory dough for open ended play, that’s fun for people of all ages.

My Thoughts
We received the aroma doughs on Saturday, which was perfect timing for C. She suffers with anxiety on a daily basis. Through her illness, she also struggles with sleep and brain fog. So the combination of the three sounded amazing. Plus with GCSE’s the next two weeks we had nothing to lose.
She has been trying each of them over the weekend. She had an exam first thing this morning and ws using the anxiety dough on her way to college. It is perfect for popping in your bag for when you need to use it.
