Stress Awareness Day
We are so ridiculously stressed that there is an institute specifically devoted to stress awareness and treatment! That's crazy. It's the American Institute of Stress. I have a crazy feeling that we are the only country in the world that has this problem.

Use Your Common Sense Day
How to Develop Common Sense: Common sense isn't a one-stop-destination; it's a way of thinking that needs constant nourishing and application.
Amazingly enough, there's an essential oil for Common Sense! It has in it; Frankincense – for overcoming stress. And when we aren’t stressed, we think more clearly.
YlangYlang- to calm, relax and help release feelings of anger, tension and nervous irritability. I’m seeing a pattern here. Stress = bad thinking.
Ocotea – contains high levels of alpha- humulene to balance the body’s response to irritation
Rue- to relax the body and mind, counter stressed nerves and rebalance energy.
Dorado Azul- to promote healthy lung function and support measured breathing (because we can’t THINK when we are hyperventilating, can we?)
Lime- to counter negativity.

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
