Mental Health Awareness Month invites us to pause and reflect — not just on mental illness, but on mental wellness. On how we tend to our minds the way we tend to our bodies, our spaces, and the people we love.
At Vellum Wellness, we believe wellness isn’t reserved for your “days off.” It’s something you can weave into your everyday — through scent, ritual, and mindful moments of care.
Essential oils can play a quiet but powerful role in this. Lavender to calm spiraling thoughts. Eucalyptus to clear brain fog. Ylang Ylang to reconnect with your breath. Grapefruit to lift the cloud when joy feels far away.
It’s not about perfection. It’s about presence.
Here’s one of our favourite daily practices:
The 3-Minute Reset Ritual:
-
Add 4 drops of Lavie (Lavender) and 3 drops of Euki (Eucalyptus) to your diffuser.
-
Inhale deeply. Exhale slowly. Do this for one full minute.
-
Repeat silently: “I release what I can’t carry. I choose peace in this moment.”
Whether you’re starting your day, in between meetings, or winding down before bed — this simple ritual can help you return to yourself.
This May, let your wellness practice be gentle. Let it be yours.
