The Depression Support Blend is designed to help individuals experiencing symptoms of depression. It offers medicinal support by modulating neurotransmitter levels, reducing inflammation, balancing hormones, and promoting relaxation and mental clarity. It can assist with emotional imbalances, anxiety, and physical symptoms often linked to depression, such as fatigue, restlessness, and poor concentration.

Understanding Depression: Causes and Symptoms

Depression is a complex mental health disorder characterized by a persistent feeling of sadness, hopelessness, and a lack of interest or pleasure in life. It can affect cognitive, emotional, and physical functions. Biologically, depression is linked to dysregulation in the neurotransmitter systems, including serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, and the body’s stress response (HPA axis). Chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and hormonal imbalances can exacerbate the condition, leading to more severe mental and physical health deterioration.

Symptoms of depression include:

Persistent feelings of sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness.
Fatigue or loss of energy.
Difficulty concentrating or making decisions.
Changes in sleep patterns (insomnia or hypersomnia).
Appetite changes (overeating or loss of appetite).
Physical symptoms such as headaches, digestive issues, and chronic pain.
Restlessness or irritability.
Feelings of worthlessness or excessive guilt.
Suicidal thoughts or tendencies in severe cases.

How This Blend Treats Depression

The Depression Support Blend works by addressing both the neurological and physical symptoms of depression. Each essential oil in the blend has specific mechanisms that target the underlying biochemical and physiological processes involved in depression, including:

Neurotransmitter Balance: Several oils in this blend (such as bergamot, lavender, and orange) support serotonin and dopamine production, the neurotransmitters responsible for regulating mood. This is particularly important, as depression is often linked to serotonin deficiency and disrupted dopamine pathways.
Stress Hormone Regulation: Basil and rosemary help modulate the body’s cortisol levels, balancing the stress response by acting on the HPA axis. Elevated cortisol is often present in chronic depression and can worsen symptoms. By reducing cortisol, the blend aids in reducing stress and emotional fatigue.
Reducing Inflammation: Chronic inflammation, both in the brain and body, plays a key role in depression. Frankincense, lemon, and rosemary reduce inflammatory markers, helping to alleviate mood disturbances that stem from neuroinflammation.
Improving Cognitive Function: Oils like peppermint and rosemary stimulate cerebral circulation, improving mental clarity and reducing cognitive fatigue, which is a common symptom in depression. Increased blood flow to the brain helps clear mental fog and improve focus.
Promoting Relaxation: Lavender, ylang-ylang, and basil promote relaxation through their calming effects on the parasympathetic nervous system, helping to reduce physical tension and emotional distress, making it easier to cope with daily life stressors.

Difference Between Depression Support (Ingestible) and Depression & Anxiety (Topical)

The Depression Support Blend (Ingestible) focuses primarily on mood regulation through an internal biochemical processan internal biochemical processes. The oils in this blend directly influence neurotransmitter levels, stress hormones, and systemic inflammation through ingestion, making it more targeted for internal support.

In contrast, the Depression and Anxiety Blend (Topical) is formulated for external use and works more directly on the nervous system through skin absorption and aromatics. The oils are absorbed into the bloodstream through the skin, modulating stress responses and reducing anxiety on a physiological level by calming the central nervous system. This blend also has a more direct impact on calming emotional instability and physical symptoms of anxiety such as muscle tension and rapid heart rate.

Both blends can be used in conjunction for a comprehensive approach to managing depression and anxiety, but the topical blend offers quicker relief of immediate stress and anxiety symptoms through external application.

Drink after a meal, not before. If you are using any chronic medication, take this blend 30 minutes before or after your medication.

Adults: Drink 1 capsule daily, as necessary.

Children between 6-12 years: Diffuse 5 drops of the Depression and Anxiety (10ml blend) while sleeping and apply the Depression and Anxiety blend (30ml) over the heart and underneath the feet, as necessary.

Children between 13-16 years: Diffuse 5 drops of the Depression and Anxiety (10ml blend) while sleeping and drink one capsule of the Depression Support (Ingestible) blend as necessary.

If unable to use it internally, apply 5-10 drops over the heart and underneath the feet, as necessary during the day.

Inhale as necessary throughout the day.

Inhale Method

Drip 2-3 drops of suggested essential oil or as otherwise directed, into the palm of the hands, rub once to open the molecules (rubbing will evaporate the oil), cup your hands around your mouth and nose and deeply inhale.

We recommend using this blend with Hadassah’s Gut Cleanse, 1 capsule daily. Diffuse Depression and Anxiety (for diffuser), Rescue, and Trauma during the day and at night while sleeping.

IMPORTANT TO KNOW

All our blends come in a 30ml glass bottle, with a glass pipette and a rubber bulb on top. Don’t forget to buy empty veggie capsules when purchasing an ingestible blend. (Our veggie capsules are now available in 90’s and 150’s).

Never pre-fill capsules for future use, as this will compromise the veggie capsule and melt. Instead, always fill the capsules just before drinking them. (But if there is no other option, only prepare up to 3 days’ supply. You MUST then keep them upright in the refrigerator in a marked container; to know which blend it is filled with.)

Method – open the veggie capsule, then open your blend, squeeze, and release the rubber bulb to draw the oil blend up into the glass pipette dropper. Gently squeeze the rubber bulb to fill the larger part of the open capsule. Close the capsule before drinking it. Dosage is always a full capsule of a specific blend (between 15 to 18 drops) unless otherwise indicated.

If you need to take more than one oil blend per day, spread them throughout the day to assist the body with proper absorption. Never drink more than two capsules of different blends at a time.

It is always good to have a very small snack/fruit before drinking capsules.

Primary Ingredients

Active Ingredients and Mechanisms of Action

Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia)
Biological Action: Lavender works primarily through the modulation of the GABAergic system, acting as a mild sedative and anti-anxiety agent. It reduces the overstimulation of the nervous system by binding to GABA receptors, which leads to a calming effect.
Depression Support: Lavender helps alleviate symptoms of anxiety and stress, which often accompany depression. It improves sleep quality, reduces feelings of agitation, and restores emotional balance by promoting relaxation and lowering cortisol levels.
Frankincense (Boswellia carterii)
Biological Action: Frankincense possesses anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties that help regulate the central nervous system (CNS) and reduce oxidative stress, which is associated with neurodegenerative diseases and mood disorders.
Depression Support: Frankincense works on a cellular level to reduce inflammation in the brain and body. It helps support overall mental clarity, reduce feelings of sadness, and uplift mood by stabilizing neurotransmitter release.
Orange (Citrus sinensis)
Biological Action: Orange oil is rich in limonene, which has been shown to exert antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects on the brain. It also helps release serotonin, the “feel-good” hormone.
Depression Support: The citrus scent and ingestion stimulate serotonin production, which is often deficient in depression. This oil can help elevate mood, alleviate anxiety, and improve overall emotional well-being.
Peppermint (Mentha piperita)
Biological Action: Peppermint contains menthol, which activates TRPM8 receptors, providing a cooling sensation and stimulating mental alertness. It enhances cerebral blood flow, oxygenating the brain and improving concentration.
Depression Support: Peppermint’s ability to improve cognitive function and reduce mental fatigue makes it beneficial for those experiencing the cognitive dullness often associated with depression. It enhances focus, refreshes the mind, and reduces lethargy.
Lemon (Citrus limon)
Biological Action: Lemon oil contains high concentrations of d-limonene, a compound known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It also helps stimulate the nervous system to increase alertness.
Depression Support: Lemon acts as a natural mood booster by reducing oxidative stress in the brain, improving alertness, and combating fatigue. Its uplifting scent promotes a positive mental outlook and enhances energy levels.
Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis)
Biological Action: Rosemary contains compounds that improve circulation and enhance memory by stimulating acetylcholine production, a key neurotransmitter for cognitive function. It also modulates the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which plays a central role in stress regulation.
Depression Support: Rosemary oil’s ability to stimulate mental clarity and relieve mental fatigue helps with the cognitive fog often seen in depression. By regulating stress hormones, it can also reduce the physical symptoms of chronic stress, such as fatigue and poor concentration.
Bergamot (Citrus bergamia)
Biological Action: Bergamot acts on the CNS by increasing dopamine and serotonin levels. Shown antidepressant-like effects in clinical studies due to its ability to improve neurotransmitter balance.
Depression Support: Bergamot is effective in reducing feelings of sadness and emotional distress by regulating mood-related neurotransmitters. It supports a more stable mood and provides relief from emotional lows.
Ylang-ylang (Cananga odorata)
Biological Action: Ylang-ylang influences parasympathetic nervous system activation, promoting relaxation and stress relief. It has been shown to reduce cortisol levels and improve serotonin activity.
Depression Support: This oil is excellent for reducing emotional and physical stress. It helps lower blood pressure, slows down the heart rate, and alleviates anxiety, which in turn helps counteract feelings of depression.
Basil (Ocimum basilicum)
Biological Action: Basil contains adaptogenic properties, meaning it helps the body adapt to stress. It regulates cortisol and serotonin levels and improves overall nervous system balance.

Depression Support: Basil’s ability to act as a natural adaptogen helps stabilize mood swings, reduce stress, and enhance emotional resilience. It also works to combat the physical symptoms of chronic stress, which are often intertwined with depressive states.

Olive Oil (Olea europaea)
Biological Action: Olive oil serves as a carrier oil and offers anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties due to its high content of oleic acid and polyphenols.
Depression Support: The anti-inflammatory properties of olive oil reduce oxidative stress and support brain health, enhancing the efficacy of the essential oils it carries.

Pregnant or breastfeeding women, as well as individuals with pre-existing medical conditions or those taking prescription medications, should consult a healthcare provider before using this product.

Keep out of children’s reach.

Avoid it during the first trimester of pregnancy and while breastfeeding (contains peppermint).

Do a patch test before using it on a larger skin area. Discontinue use if redness, irritation, or other discomfort occurs.

Avoid contact with eyes, inner ears, and sensitive areas, if contact occurs, rinse well with water.
