Tip of the Day
Sniffing citrus – whether in the form of an actual lemon or a jar of Satsuma body polish – is a major stress reducer, according to science.
When participants in a recent study, LINKED HERE, spent as little as ten minutes inhaling yuzu (the super-tart, Japanese citrus fruit), they saw a significant decrease in their overall mood disturbance, a global measure that looks at tension, anxiety, depression, confusion, fatigue and anger. Whoa.
So, eat a grapefruit, light a citrus candle or spend a few minutes mixing up a batch of real lemonade. Just be sure to inhale…annnnnd…exhale while you do it.
