As we head into the closing chapter of 2020, many of us face the end of the year push – including completing the last few tasks that are stressing us out before we take a well-needed rest to refresh ourselves for the new year. That is why we have put together 3 tips for stress support and mood enhancement, that you can implement as part of your ‘stress less’ routine. 

#1 The Key Ingredient: CBD

We recommend giving your body a mood or stress support supplement, to help you cruise through this period and ease into the holiday spirit. For effective mood enhancement and stress support, cannabidiol is one of the most promising naturally-derived supplements on the market – our best recommendation is the soothing RETHINK CBD Uplift Oil 30 ml. Containing 5 mg CBD per ml and infused with St John’s Wort and Lemon Balm Leaf, the Uplift Oil is a full 30-day support supplement for mood enhancement and stress support – just enough to get you through the busy season. You can shop RETHINK CBD online or in-store at leading pharmacies and health stores nationwide.

#2 Speaking It Into Existence: Positive Reinforcement

It might sound wishy-washy, but the way we talk to ourselves (and yes, we all do) can impact our stress levels at the end of the day. Negative thoughts (and self-talks) increase stress, while positive thoughts can help to soothe and calm your mind. With some self-checking and practice, you can learn to replace negative stress-inducing thoughts with more positive, calm, and supportive internal dialogues to manage your stress. You are your biggest supporter, after all – so become your own mood or stress support!                                                             

#3 Count to 10 Before You Choose Your Next Move

When we are stressed, our reactions can be made in haste as we rush to close off the year and find the last solutions fast. Once we start reflecting, thinking about what we could have done instead, these situations only add further stress and create negative feelings that we have towards ourselves. That is why it is best to count to 10 before your next move – take the time to clear your head before making your brain shoot around communication you are not ready to register. Do not guilt yourself about needing time to think – we all do. 

With all that said and done… the last thing we would like to say is to have a wonderful holiday – be safe, healthy, and responsible with the ones you love.
