Someone out there needs this today……

The postpartum window is often called the “fourth trimester” for a reason.

It’s a season of massive transformation — physically, emotionally, hormonally, and relationally. And yet, many new parents move through it with minimal support for their own nervous systems.

Neroli essential oil is a gentle yet powerful option to support this season with care, regulation, and emotional grounding.

🌼 Why Neroli?

Extracted from the blossom of the bitter orange tree, Neroli has been shown in research to:

Lower cortisol levels and help reduce feelings of anxiety

Support parasympathetic activation, promoting a sense of rest and safety

Lift mood without overstimulation

Soothe hormonal fluctuations that can contribute to mood swings or emotional flooding

Its soft floral aroma is comforting, non-invasive, and often well-tolerated, making it ideal for sensitive postpartum nervous systems.

Ways to incorporate it:

Diffuse it!

Use roller on wrists or heart

Smell from the bottle during breastfeeding or moments of overwhelm to re-center and regulate

Postpartum doesn’t need to be navigated alone, or disconnected from the body. Neroli offers a sensory anchor back to calm, connection, and self.

Self-care is not a luxury; it is a fundamental necessity. It is the practice of nurturing your mind, body, and spirit so that you can show up fully for yourself and for others. You cannot pour from an empty cup — tending to your own needs is not selfish, it is essential for living a life of balance, purpose, and joy.

Have you diffused AromaTouch lately? Or, rubbed it into tired, achy muscles? You can use it for head tension, too. I love having a potent, pure, natural and safe source of relief at my fingertips!
