"I've had an anxiety disorder since middle school and, like many people, the past year took a toll on my mental health and exacerbated my symptoms. I began to research and try some more natural approaches to manageing my anxiety, like meditation and essential oils. When it was time to try essential oils, I turned to Saje Wellness, the same company that makes an oil blend I've used to help soothe migraine pain. They've been in business for more than 25 years, their products are formulated using scientific research, and my psychiatrist did some digging and told me it would be safe to use their essential oils, in addition to staying on my prescription medications. So, I ordered the Saje Mindfulness Pocket Farmacy ($65). It comes neatly organised in a small, pretty case with five essential oils in roll-on form. The kit is the perfect size — small enough to stick in my purse and even take in my carry-on bag for flights.
My anxiety and PTSD make it extremely difficult for me to focus. I often work myself up so much that I'm too anxious and agitated to sit down at my desk and complete necessary tasks. I pace around my apartment for up to two hours sometimes and, in the past, the only thing that could get me to sit down and concentrate was taking medication. Thanks to the Reflection oil, I don't need to use Valium for this purpose as often as I used to. I'd recommend these essential oils to people who experience anxiety and concentration issues — just make sure to clear it with your doctor first, of course, especially if you're taking medication." — Caitlin Flynn, contributor
