It’s no secret that in this generation that most of us live hectic fast paced lives which can lead to stress and all sorts of other health issues.  For me it’s extremely important to take time for relaxation and self-care just for my own sanity.  Several times a week I make it a point to pamper myself and just unwind.  Whether you treat yourself to a glass of wine, your favorite book or magazine, a bubble bath, or all of the above…..we all need “me” time.  One of the ways I love to relax this is with my Essential Oils Diffuser from BZSeed Company.

I never understood the essential oils hype until I got one of these diffusers and now I’m obsessed.  Candles are always have burning in my home but this is a great alternative that lasts so much longer!  I can legit burn through a huge candle in one day but one bottle of oil last forever.  The diffuser is super easy to use too!  You just pour water up to the fill line then drop a few drops of your favorite oil in.  Pop the cover back on and fire it up.  The left button control the color and changing of the light and the right button let’s you pick how long for the run time!  So easy!

These handy little machines are also great for medical conditions like anxiety. Scents can really affect your mood and stress levels so they are perfect for me being that I’ve suffered from anxiety for so long.  There are so many different scent combinations for things like sleep, relaxation, balance, etc.  Even big stores like Bath and Body Works and Yankee Candle carry essential oils now!  You just need a diffuser like this one I got on Amazon!

I happened to put mine right in this corner because it’s my favorite spot in my house.  Most people love their bedrooms but I love this corner in my living room  From here I can see my backyard and a huge woodsy area in our subdivision and there are always tons of birds out.  You can also see the sunrise from this little corner so this is typically where I work from.  My husband thinks its funny because I never use our office area.  This spot is just so relaxing to me though so I sit here all the time.  It’s also where I take time to sit and read and drink my coffee and just decompress after a long day so this was the perfect spot for my diffuser.

No matter what your mood is you can select the perfect essential oils just for you.  These are three of my current favorites.  I usually use the one for calmness in the evenings when I want to just unwind for the day.  The balance is great for any time of day and it has a very woodsy masculine scent which my husband loves!

OUTFIT DETAILS & SIZING

For reference, I’m 5’1″ & under 100 lbs.  I normally wear the following sizes:  Shoes (6), Tops (XS), Jeans (24/00)

TOP (SIZE S): Forever 21 | BRALETTE (SIZE S): Forever 21 | SHORTS (Size 25): Levi’s | EARRINGS: Forever 21 | DIFFUSER:  Amazon

I can’t end this post without giving you the outfit deets!  My button down top is from Forever 21 and runs small so I got a size small and it fits perfectly.  I also wore this cute little bralette underneath.  The shorts I’m wearing are probably a new favorite.  They are the classic levi’s mom shorts and totally have a vintage 80’s/90’s vibe.   I sized up to a 24 because the waist runs small so make sure to size up!
