    43 Things That'll Probably Make Everyday Life A Smidge Less Stressful

    Bath soaks, fidget rings, therapy dough — there's something for everyone, no matter how you like to unwind.

    1. A set of natural sensory doughs that'll give you something fun to do with your hands (besides scrolling through the news). Unlike the versions from your childhood, this one is soft, fluffy, and scented with soothing essential oils that'll help you zone out and chill.

    3. This über-flexible hair brush that'll glide right through knots and tangles without damaging your locks. The bristles are completely smooth, ensuring there are no snags to catch on your hair, which means it's perfect for all hair types (and extension wearers, too).

    4. A funky embroidery kit that'll kick off your crafting journey. It's simple enough for beginners, so it's a great intro to a new hobby.

    5. This cult-fave (and all-natural!) pillow spray that'll help you ditch invasive thoughts and drift off to dreamland. It's infused with vetiver, chamomile, and lavender that'll lull you into a deeper, more restful sleep while combating anxiety and stress in the process.

    6. An adult colouring book that'll unleash your inner artist and take your mind off things for a while. The pages are filled with aquatic designs that are equal parts relaxing and beautiful.

    7. And a box of vibrant dual-ended markers that'll help you doodle away your stress. Each marker has a thick end and a thin end, meaning they’re great for both colouring and detail work.

    8. A mood-boosting essential oil roll-on that'll help you de-stress whenever the weight of the world gets to be too much. Zesty bergamot is grounded by floral geranium, ylang-ylang, jasmine, and frankincense to give you a mini dose of all-natural aromatherapy (wherever you are).

    10. These natural heating patches that'll deliver some toasty therapy when curling around a hot water bottle is a no-go. They start working the moment they're unwrapped and can be slapped on anywhere you've got an ouchie (like your belly or lower back).

    12. This nighttime herbal tea that'll help you chill out before bed. Instead of traditional chamomile, it uses oat flower and lavender to help soothe and relax (a blessing for those of us who find chamomile to be...kinda gross).
