Now that we have had all this science, shall we get into the experience of using Essential Oils for sleep? Part of healthy sleep hygiene is preparing yourself for rest. Having a comfortable and repeatable process can help prepare not only your mind, but your body as well. Maybe you like to read, listen to music, or watch your favorite shows on TV. Whatever you enjoy should not be stressful and let your body relax.
One great way to unwind is to take a warm bath. Including Essential Oils in your bath routine can relax your mind and body.
