Feeling like you're running on empty—your mind spinning, to do list over 100+ tasks, shoulders tense, and a hundred tabs open (in your brain).
Hi lovely,
I know what it feels like to be run on empty—your mind spinning, shoulders tense, and a hundred tabs open (in your brain). Whether it’s the pressure of work, parenting, running your business or just keeping life afloat, stress has a sneaky way of building up.
The Reality: Why This Matters More Than Ever
Did you know that women aged 30–45 are experiencing higher rates of workplace stress and burnout than any other demographic?
According to a recent Deloitte Women @ Work 2023 survey:
46% of women reported feeling burned out.
51% said their stress levels are higher than a year ago.
Many are juggling care giving, career, and household responsibilities—without adequate time to recharge.
The toll? Poor sleep, irritability, chronic anxiety, hormonal imbalances, and emotional exhaustion. This isn’t just “life.” This is a sign we need to reset—and start prioritising ourselves without guilt. This data can also apply to men in the workplace.
That’s why I created Herbal Healing's Calm Balm—a beautiful, all-natural, organic premium, essential oil blend in a balm of Shea butter, made to ease tension, support emotional balance, nourish your skin, calm your senses and bring you back to self.
Packed with powerful, organic premium, essential oils of lavender, bergamot, and cedarwood, this balm is a must-have for men and women who are busy, focused, high performers and regularly do too much, are overwhelmed and run on empty or burnt-out.
It’s like a deep breath in a jar—portable, powerful, and 100% organic, plant-based.
What’s Inside This Calming Ritual-in-a-Jar?
I've blended five powerhouse ingredients known for their ability to soothe the nervous system and reduce stress naturally:
Lavender Essential Oil: A classic calming oil with research-backed benefits for reducing anxiety, improving sleep, and relaxing the body and mind.
Cedarwood Essential Oil: Warm and grounding, cedarwood helps calm an overactive mind and promotes emotional stability. It’s especially helpful during tense or anxious moments.
Bergamot Essential Oil: Uplifting yet relaxing, bergamot is known to boost mood and ease emotional stress. It’s often used to reduce feelings of overwhelm or irritability.
Geranium Essential Oil: Balancing and heart-opening, geranium helps regulate emotions, ease tension, and support hormonal balance—making it ideal for PMS-related stress or emotional burnout.
Shea Butter (Carrier): Not just a base, but a nutrient-rich skin soother. Shea butter deeply nourishes and protects your skin while allowing the essential oils to absorb gently and effectively.
Every ingredient is hand-selected to help your body and mind slow down—naturally.
