Life in Southwest Florida is truly enhanced by the beauty of the multiple Royal Palm trees majestically lining McGregor Boulevard in Fort Myers. Despite the challenges of hurricanes, summer heat, and water issues, these trees steady us and bring a powerful scene of strength and serenity to our beautiful evening sunsets. Similarly, the incredible power that high-quality plants bring to our wellness regimen can steady us, calm us, and help relieve feelings of stress and anxiety that build up throughout the day.
The Calming Effect of the Adaptiv® System
Much like the towering trees in the City of Palms, a powerful tool my customers and I have come to rely on is the doTERRA Adaptiv system. This group of products includes the Adaptiv Calming Blend, the Adaptiv Touch Calming Blend, and the Adaptiv Calming Blend Capsules. The blend of Orange, Lavender, Copaiba, Spearmint, Magnolia, Rosemary, Neroli, and Sweetgum essential oils provides reliable, targeted, and effective support from high-quality plant material that is natural and safe.
These essential oils are consistently being studied for their ability to help with feelings of calm. These oils are not those commonly found in grocery stores or even specialty shops – these certified pure and tested grade oils are being studied in universities and delivered at a quality on par with products from the pharmaceutical industry. Indeed, they are the best in the world, and there is nothing else like them available. This blend of oils is calming, relaxing, and soothing. It is the perfect blend for diffusing at bedtime.
The Powerful Parts of the Whole
The beauty of this system is in its flexibility of delivery. One of the easiest ways to get started with these high-quality essential oils is diffusing. You might just put a couple of drops into your palm and hold it near your nose and mouth, breathe deeply, and inhale the relaxing aroma. The essential oil blend also works wonderfully in an ultrasonic diffuser to help create an uplifting aroma and relaxing atmosphere in your home or office. This might even help humidify our occasionally dry indoor air.
The second part of the system helps you adapt and thrive in challenging situations when you are on the go. The Adaptiv Touch roll-on combines this powerful blend of essential oils with a fractionated coconut base so that you can easily carry it with you and roll it onto your wrists or pulse points and still maintain the sweet, citrusy, and floral aroma. You can roll it onto your hands, shoulders, and neck confidently, as there is no need for dilution to use this product directly.
The final part of the system is the capsules, which are designed for internal use. They include more powerful essential oils and clinically studied botanicals to help reduce feelings of stress and restore mental and physical resiliency. This vegan-friendly supplement includes the extract sceletium (which comes from a succulent plant). This extract and others support healthy emotional responses to everyday stressors and promote feelings of happiness and well-being.*
The Calming Blend’s soothing aroma, paired with the Touch roll-on and Calming Blend Capsules, can prepare you for life’s most demanding days. You’ll enjoy a sense of balance and be better able to adapt to any situation.* The system can help you relax, face your challenges more peacefully, and allow you to more easily fall into a deep, beneficial sleep.
