Whether you have one child or five, there is something about motherhood that is absolutely exhausting! Maybe you feel like you run through the day constantly putting out fires and tending to emergencies.

Maybe you have it all put together and you run a tight ship but at the end of the day, you’re tired and there’s no time left for you. No matter where you fall on the spectrum, you deserve some rest and relaxation, too.

Essential oils can be a great way to relax at the end of a long day and there are several you can choose from to suit your needs and your mood. We’re going to give you some suggestions, but don’t stop here with this list. Continue learning about and exploring essential oils so that you can find other ways to use them to relax after a busy day.

Essential Oils to Help Moms Relax

Get Better Sleep

Getting a good night’s sleep is one of the most important parts of a busy mom’s day. How else can you be expected to get through all the craziness of the day? This is when your body heals and refreshes itself, but daily stress and worrying about tomorrow’s to-do list can make it difficult to relax. Lavender is great for sleep, as is cedarwood and other calming oils.

Support a Healthy Immune System

Who will take care of Mom when she gets sick? Some essential oils that can help improve your immune system and reduce the chances of you getting sick are great for a nighttime relaxation ritual. Consider thieves vitality or also valor, peppermint, or lemon for immune health.

Massage

When you’re really busy and stress piles up, you might start to feel the tension in your neck. A tired or stressed neck will be sore and it might feel like your head weighs a hundred pounds, making it hard to hold it up. You could make a relaxing massage oil from carrier oil, 1-2 drops of peppermint, and 1-2 drops of lavender. Bonus points if you can lie down and relax and let someone else massage it in for you!

Managing Stress 

I think that every mom on Earth can agree that being a mother is stressful at times. Stress isn’t healthy though and in order to be the best parent we can be we need to take control of our stress levels ourselves. Diffuse Stress Away oil or place a few drops on your wrists and behind your ears when you feel yourself becoming tense.

Motherhood is a big job. You work hard all day and essential oils can help moms relax in a big way. This will help you manage occasional, daily stress and have more energy when you start your new day tomorrow.
