Who would have thought that three little letters could cause such dread? PMS, or premenstrual syndrome, affects nearly every woman at some point, bringing about a myriad of symptoms, including mood swings, anxiety, and depression. These emotional upheavals are primarily due to hormonal fluctuations, particularly in estrogen and progesterone, which impact serotonin—the happiness hormone.

Understanding PMS and Mood Swings

Research shows that 90% of women experience mood and emotional changes during their menstrual cycles. The symptoms of PMS are due to hormonal fluctuations that have physical and emotional consequences. These fluctuations not only affect your mood but can also lead to physical symptoms such as fatigue and bloating.

The Power of Nature

At Essentially Arabia, we believe that plants are here for a reason, and they offer numerous benefits that can help us in many ways. We specialize in aromatherapy and have a particular interest in women’s health. Aromatherapy is an effective tool for the relief of PMS symptoms. When you inhale an aroma, it acts fast, reaching your limbic brain—the part of your brain responsible for emotions and mood—in just 5-6 seconds. This can trigger powerful memories and emotional responses, like the smell of rain reminding you of childhood or the scent of pancakes evoking memories of your mother’s love.

How to Use Neroli Hydrosol

Incorporating Neroli Hydrosol into your routine is simple and effective. Here’s how you can make the most of it:

• During the Day: Apply a gentle mist to your wrists and face to enjoy its soothing benefits throughout the day.
• For Sleep: Mist it on your pillow at night if you feel stressed or need a mid-day nap to calm you down and prepare you for sleep.
• In the Workplace: Mist it around your workplace and inhale to help boost your mood.
• In Your Tea: Prepare a tea by misting neroli in it. Simply mist a few sprays of neroli hydrosol into your tea for a soothing drink.
• Hot Compress to Eases Menstrual Discomfort: Mist it on a hot pad or towel and place it on your tummy to reduce cramps and discomfort.
• Yoga Practice: Mist neroli on your yoga mat during mindful yoga sessions.
• During Breathing Techniques: Use neroli hydrosol while practicing breathing techniques. Mist it on your face and forehead while placing your hands on your tummy—this has been proven effective.
