Anyone use essential oils? What are the best ones for anxiety? I’m thinking about getting a necklace to help me while I’m at work

I have a bracelet with a pad in it for essential oils, works really well as body heat helps warm the oils so they diffuse into the air faster. I found a necklace worked but not as effectively plus if it's long it can sometimes get oils onto clothes if you get a tiny bit on the case. A search on Amazon for "essential oil bracelet" shows lots! You can get replacement pads for the bracelets really cheap.

For days when I'm feeling stressed I go with what I feel from a range of stress relieving ones based on smells: lavender, orange blossom, chamomile and frankincense. Just make sure they are 100% essential aromatherapy oils, as some are just smells, you'll need it to work. Have fun experimenting with what works for you.

My aromatherapy massage lady made me a sniff stick (like an olbas stick) with a mix of essential oils I use to inhale deeply when stressed. Forgotten what's in it but I think the actual plastic thing is easy to buy.
