🌿 College Move-In Stress & Finding Calm 🌿
This past week has been an emotional rollercoaster in our house. My daughter just moved away for college, and the stress, anxiety, and sleepless nights hit her hard. Change is exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming. 💛
If you (or your kids) are struggling with that knot in your chest, racing thoughts, or restless nights, here are a few calming tips that helped us:
✨ Stick to a simple routine (wake up, meals, bedtime) — routine is grounding.
✨ Get outside for even 10 minutes a day — fresh air helps regulate stress hormones.
✨ Breathe deeply — a few minutes of slow, deep breathing can calm the nervous system.
✨ Limit the scroll — constant screen time feeds anxiety.
✨ Sip something soothing — herbal teas or calming tinctures can make a big difference.
That’s one of the reasons I created my Calm Support Tincture 🌿 — formulated for nervous system support with herbs that help the body settle, ease anxious energy, and promote relaxation.
👉 Find it today at Emerald Beauty Bar in Amboy or DM me to reserve a bottle!
Sending love, calm, and resilience to all the parents (and students) navigating these new transitions. 💚
