Stress Busting Coconut Scented Soy Candles

A long work day at the office can be very stressful.  

The same is true for stay-at-home moms who had to keep the house and take care of the children.   

Stress can be good if it pushes you to perform at an optimum level but often, it can have a negative impact on one’s physical condition and it can also impact your emotions.

Effects of Stress

Your immune system could weaken.  That means there is a possibility of you getting sick more often and if you already have a chronic illness, this can make it worse.  You could have high blood pressure and abnormal heartbeat.  Tension from stress could lead to shoulders, neck or back pain.  Stress is also linked to infertility or painful menstrual period.  Aside from all these, skin problems such as acne and psoriasis could worsen.

Stresses do not just affect your physical well-being.  It can also influence how you feel and how you react to certain situations.  You could feel cranky and frustrated on trivial things.  You could lose your patience and end up shouting inappropriately.  When you’re under a lot of stress, it’s almost too difficult to focus on one specific task and follow through with it.

When everything’s going crazy, always find time to stop and relax.  Your body is irreplaceable and besides, if you have been working hard, the best you could do for yourself is to give yourself a break.  It’s easy as arming yourself with food and scents that can help you bust stress away.  Close the door, light up a candle and enjoy the fragrance of Coconut-scented soy candles filling up your room.

Why Coconut-scented Soy Candle?

Coconut scent can slow your heart rate, blunting one’s natural “fight or flight” response on stress.  According to a small pilot study at the Columbia University, the blood pressure of the people who were able to breathe the fragrance of a coconut recovered quickly after a challenging task.  Researchers speculate that pleasant scent can enhance alertness and soothes our response to stress.

The choice of coconut-scented soy candle to battle stress is very ideal.  Because soy candles tend to burn slower than other candles, this gives you more time for yourself to relax and enjoy the aroma.  Soy candles also disperse the fragrance faster so you get to relax quicker.
