Lavender Oil 

Lavender Oil is one of the most popular essential oils in the world. Because of its many uses, we consider this a must-have oil to keep at home. From encouraging peaceful sleep to soothing troubled skin and easing feelings of tension, Lavender’s calming properties can enhance every aspect of your life. Even in you aren’t immersed in the world of Aromatherapy, it’s worth keeping a bottle of Lavender Oil by your bedside. Here’s why:

• It eases symptoms of anxiety
• It helps you fall asleep easier and faster
• It promotes wound healing

The neurological benefits of lavender oil include treating depression and boosting moods. Research shows that it has the potential to treat Alzheimers disease, as well as reduce oxidative stress and improve cognitive impairment.

Pure Lavender has a Sweet, floral, and herbaceous aroma that inspires feelings of calm and relaxation. Originating in France & Bulgaria, Lavender has been an important ingredient in cleansing and calming rituals for centuries! The Romans even named the plant after its use in their bathing routines (“lava” means “to wash” in Latin). In Elizabethan times, when bathing was uncommon, lavender was used to perfume clothes and bed linens.

I pamper myself by putting a few drops of lavender oil in my bath. I love to put in on the soles of my feet as I climb into bed. I also have a lavender oil spray so I can mist on my pillows. It makes me feel like I’m in a spa!
