Life can be so full and busy. At the end of the day, it’s important to recuperate by taking time for yourself! Here are my top 10 tips for chilling out:
1. COOK AWAY YOUR STRESS
When you look at cooking as a relaxing, creative activity — rather than a chore — it becomes a great way to take your mind off of the day’s stresses.
2. DIFFUSE ESSENTIAL OILS
I love using my Ellia Diffuser to create a relaxing environment in my home. I usually end the day with Wind Down or Lavender.
3. READ A BOOK
I love curling up with a good book to escape from the real world and daydream.
4. GET ACTIVE
Work out, stretch, or do yoga to release tension from the day. I find it helps me sleep better, too!
5. PAMPER YOURSELF
Once in a while, book a spa treatment or a massage in the evening. You’ll feel intensely relaxed.
6. KEEP A JOURNAL
Journal your thoughts or ideas. It’s a safe place to collect your innermost desires and motivations.
7. TAKE A HIKE
An evening walk, free of screens and technology, can help you to decompress. Stroll around the neighborhood or hit up a local park.
8. SIP TO SOOTHE
I love to unwind with a glass of wine or a cup of herbal tea.
9. BLISS OUT IN A BATH
Taking a bath is the ultimate way to relax! Make it even better by diffusing essential oils while you do so.
10. TURN ON THE TUNES
Listen to your favorite music to unwind or find inspiration.

Howdy! Just got a new Ellia Gather diffuser! Amazing! So neato! I love it. I’ll be using it all the time. Please tell me how u would keep it clean? I did read the article on cleaning them. Will that suffice? Love the music and the lights, but wish they had a RED light????
thank you.
