Sounds trite,but if you don’t have enough sleep it’s very difficult to de-stress.So sleep is my best friend & of course Tisserand Lavender to help me sleep !
Always make sure I have a good hand cream (with essential oils) close by ……. in handbag or on desk at work. For that “aromatherapy shot” whenever a quick de-stress is needed!

Lavender wheat wrap (check), natural foot cream (check), de-stress roller ball (check), cosy novel (check) and a fat, furry cat on my lap (check). Let the relaxation begin!
Best de-dress tip is green tea, and plenty of sleep!! Also make sure you’re getting enough vitamin c. And of course any of Tisserand’s Aromatherapy products!!
My best de-stress tip is to take a bit of thime out for yourself, whether it’s taking a walk in the park or a nice relaxing warm bath. It’s worth it!
My favourite way to de-stress is using EFT (emotional freedom technique), It is a form of acupressure tapping on acupressure points on the upper body and head. If I feel upset or stressed EFT normally calms me and soothes my greatly. I also love meditation for when I am feeling extra fragile in any way, I simply sit, listen to music, while focusing on my breathing. This helps me tremendously.
My favourite way to destress is to put on a facemask, have a huge bubble bath, and then cuddle up on the sofa watching a chic movie whilst looking through some magazines. I wish I could destress on a hot beach but sadly living in the UK doesn’t allow this.
A few drops of aromatherapy oils in the bath, base of the shower, or on a comforting hot wash cloth draped over the face and inhaled deeply until it cools.
I lay on the floor on my yoga mat and focus on every part of my body melting like marshmallow into the floor; and relax into my breathing so it complements my grounded body
A long soak in the bath with candles, music and a magazine always works a treat when I want to destress!
Amazing giveaway! Fingers crossed I win! Living in Cornwall my favorite de-stress tip is a long walk on the beach or a surf in the sea
very nice gifts!
My de-stress tip is just to take a hot hot bath with essential oils and try not to think of anything!!!
A walk in the countryside. No matter how reluctant I am to go (weather not always conducive!), I always return home feeling refreshed. The walk gives me the chance to put things into perspective. Sometimes that’s essential.
My best quick fix de-stress tip is simple, just close your eyes and take a few deep breaths – works every time and is great just before exams and interviews.
Aromatherapy massage or a warm bed and a good book

When i’m stressed I like to do something that will take my mind off my worries. Taking a bath doesn’t work for me, I need to be doing some kind of activity like baking a cake, it’s always a good idea to treat yourself when you are stressed. Or i’ll go and visit my sisters or better still, go shopping then have lunch with them. Something simple like a good movie also works if it’s funny enough!
I follow Tisserand. Good to see them on Twitter now. My best destress tip? Sex! Like exercise, sex releases endorphines and endorphines make you happy and relaxed. Stress? What stress? 🙂
My de-stress tip is an aromatherapy bath in the evening. My favorite is with lavender essential oil. It is so relaxing and therapeutic and a great way to unwind. It helps me to have a fabulous night’s sleep so I wake up refreshed and ready to face a brand new day! I have followed Tisserand and Tweeted. Thank You x
My tip to de stress and unwind is to have an aromatherapy bath in the evening. My personal favourite is lavender essential oil. It is so calming and relaxing and uplifting. Makes all my worries of the day fade away and sets me up for a good night’s sleep.
Prepare the room with lovely candles and goodies then snuggle up on the sofa with my beautiful kids, husband and dog and watch a good movie.
I love to de-stress in a lovely warm bath filled with beautifully scented water, surrounded by the light of a flickering candle and a great book at hand.
After a hard day I like to de-stress by lying on the sofa for a while with a scented candle burning and Panpipe music paying softly in the background/

My de stress tip is to take time to yourself each day (even if its only 20minutes) and do something that is purely for enjoyment, whether its reading a book, soaking in a bath or dancing like a maniac.
Have followed Tisserand and Tweeted. My de stress tip is to put a face pack on, then you have to sit still for a bit.

My best de-stressing tip: foot bath followed by moisturizing rub.
Laugh! Watch a hilarious film you love or do something silly x
Hi Fiona, I’m following Tisserand on twitter.
I find using aromatherapy oils one of the best ways to de-stress. It helps to calm and soothe mind, body and spirit beautifully and you experience the benefits immediately. I always have an aromatherapy rollerball in my bag, it’s great I can use it just about anywhere and anytime I need it. My oils of choice are lavender, chamomile, ylang-ylang and rose. When I want some me-time I have a pampering aromatherapy bath. Ahhh pure bliss!
I also believe laughter is a great stress zapper. I love to rent a funny movie and have a chuckle.
Fragrance has always been my de-stresser. Whether it’s a freshing scented body wash, or a soothing scented body lotion, scents help me relax or get invigorated. I love burning scented candles – especially during the holidays because they invoke happy memories of when I was a child and the lovely aromas of my mother baking pies and holiday pastries. Perfume is my “medicine”
Be organised. I also find a good hot bath with some essential oils helps
Have a cuddle – with your cat, child or partner (or anyone else who takes your fancy). There is nothing like a proper loving cuddle to squeeze the stress away…. Except maybe cake… 😉
Definately a walk in a gorgeous park or in the countryside, I’m a nature nut and any time I can get out into the natural world destresses me almost instantly – the sounds, smells of it all I find utterly therapeutic no matter what else is going on in life.
Go out for a walk the fresh air will blow the cobwebs away and the exercise will make you feel better,less stressed and get the blood pumping!
I’m a great believer in aromatherapy, a few drops of lavender in your oil burner works wonders.
My favorite way to de-stress is by doing the Insanity Workout, Yoga, Reading a great novel or watching a film, and laughing as much as possible! x
Reading a book is good for de-stressing 🙂
exercise, cup of green tea and a good book
Meditation. No need for all that humming.
Just lie down, empty your mind and breath slowly and deeply.
You will be more relaxed than ever before.

I find lighting an aromatherapy candle whilst soaking in the bath with low background music relaxes me – I love gorgeous natural products & finishing the relaxation with good face oil moisturiser x
don’t leave things to the last minute – nothing is more stressful than always being in a hurry.
My de-stress tip is to develop a fixed bedtime routine so your mind and body know bedtime is approaching and begin to wind down ready for it; such as having a warm bath and a milky drink, or switching off the TV/laptop etc an hour before bed It works for children and it really helps you to get good quality sleep.
Fabulous giveaway! I’ve followed Tisserand on Twitter, and I;m just about to tweet you to tell you!
My de-stress tip is just to take time out – I don’t kn ow how to meditate properly, but I do think trying to empty your mind and properly relax is important – it doesn’t matter where you are, but just taking 5 minutes out and not worrying about things can be really helpful!
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!
