Essential Oils in Your Exercise Routine

We all know that regular movement and exercise offers so many benefits – both mental and physical. 

Physically, exercise can improve flexibility, build strength, improve balance and joint health, and improve your breathing – depending on the exercise or active hobby of your choosing! Mentally, exercise can aid in stress relief, foster mental calmness, boost self-confidence, and improve sleep.

Exercise goes hand in hand with essential oils in benefiting your mind, body, and spirit. Used together you can create a powerful practice that will leave you grounded, revitalised and feeling uplifted.

Whether you prefer to hike, swim, cycle, practice yoga, or any other type of exercise, you can tailor the products you use to how you want to feel. Here’s some of our favourites.

Get Active, Comfortably: Chafe Away

No-one likes chafing, especially when they’re on their most highly anticipated hike of the summer, or at their favourite Pilates class. We created Chafe Away to ensure skin stays hydrated whilst you get the most out of your activity, but we also carefully curated the essential oil blend to uplift your mood, and leave you feeling energised. Infused with Lemongrass Oil and Shea Butter, this balm glides smoothly onto skin whilst boosting your energy with a citrus-based scent. Try it here.

Softer Skin and a Calmer Mind: Talc-Free Body Powder

We remember being at the pool as kids, covered in baby powder trying to get in and out of swimming costumes and caps, we didn’t expect to be facing the same discomfort as adults! Whether it’s to mask sweat, make your post-shower routine as easy as possible, or for use after swimming across the pool or lakes, our powder will absorb any excess moisture, leaving your skin feeling soft, silky and fresh. We’ve infused our Talc-Free Body Powder with Lavender Essential Oil and Chamomile Flower Extract to refresh and calm the senses, nurturing a peaceful atmosphere. Try it here.

Spritz the Room: Love Room, Pillow & Linen Mist

We use our Love Room Spray before we start our yoga practices to freshen the air and lift the mood. You could also use the spray to gently scent your yoga mat. This blend contains Rose Geranium, Patchouli and Vanilla Essential Oils to help bring in a moment of comfort, joy and emotional balance. Try it here.
