Aveda Stress Fix Concentrate $22.00 and Bach Rescue Remedy Spray $ 11.97

For when life makes you want to stick a fork in your eye. You know those moments when your car dies right before street cleaning and then you get a ticket or for moments where you need a little zen, or a little pocket refuge at your desk to forget the tasks at hand or at least make them appear doable, this duo is for you.

When I was studying for the bar this past summer these two products totally saved me in moments when I felt like the growing tower of books and papers was going to eat me alive.

The Aveda concentrate I would apply right when I sat down. It smells like hippie goddess magic, and for a moment I forget I am at my desk studying Real Property and for a split second I think I am in Yoga. You know those classes where at the end the kind teacher comes around stretches you and puts lavender onto your temples so the rest of the day you smell that lavender. Its like that, but at your desk.

The Rescue Remedy Spray. I do not know what it is, or how it works. You spray it onto your tounge and bam, instant inner calm, instant zen. It tastes odd, but not terrible.

This combo is how I start my study time, and its great, and I bet it would be perfect for some hectic holiday shopping or holiday dinner with your crazy family.
