Clary Sage is an essential oil that needs to be in every woman’s house.
The support this oil can give for those that feel they need that bit extra help from calming stress to helping with fertility, perimenopause and menopause, through to libido, anxiety and depression.
I work with women that have all of these concerns and event though good diets are in place, exercise is included in their weekly regimes, it’s those other factors that make it hard for women to feel up beat at times.
When stressed Clary Sage can assist by:
- Provides calm and relaxation to the mind and body

Anxiety, Depression and Mood Swings
– are at the forefront of woman’s health concerns, from the increase of ‘to-do’ lists, expectations from themselves and others, having to work full time to keep financial situations covered, to eventually becoming just purely burnt out.
Clary Sage is a definite one to help when you feel defeated:
- Relaxes and soothes the mind and body while calming emotions

- Balances the body and mind to allow for relaxation
How to use:
Diffuse with citrus oils all day or before bed.
Combine with favourite carrier oil plus roman chamomile, and lavender in a warm epsom salt bath.
This oil is so calming and soothing, it helps to take the edge off each day and always carry in with you, so if every you come into a situation that makes you feel anxious, the oil is there to help.
If you just have a good cry, just inhale directly from the bottle – it is your friend.
Please remember, there are a lot of women who are trying to do too much and not only are they raising their cortisol levels, they are keeping their cortisol levels high.
If you are struggling with weight loss and becoming very anxious about this, you will find it extremely hard to lose the weight.
If you are forever dragging yourself out of bed, indecisive, forgetful and also impatient – Clary Sage can help all of these regular occurrences go away.
A little bottle of help can go a long way…
