Ways To Use
Why Not Use It In Your Diffuser?
Research shows that inhaling certain essential oils each day improves levels of oxytocin in the body. Oxytocin has a complex role to play in our sleep-wakefulness cycles. When the body is not suffering the effects of stress, oxytocin helps us sleep better.
A small study done last year also suggests that inhaling essential oils for two hours, when you go to bed, may also improve memory.
Perhaps Use It In An Inhaler Stick?
The smell is a very personal thing, and sometimes you might be sharing a room with someone who would prefer not to smell your Sleepy Slumber Synergy Blend of essential oils for some reason. Why not add a couple of drops of your Sleepy Slumber Synergy Blend of essential oils for sleep into an aromastick, so you can just keep it close with you? Also great to use it this way, if you are traveling too. Aroma Sticks are great if you want to get a snooze on the plane, for example.
They are also really useful if you are going to be away from home.
Essential oils are often used in studies of people in hospitals, as a way of reducing their anxiety before operations and to try and make their stay a little more comfortable. Unfortunately, our Sleepy Slumber Synergy Blend Essential Oil Synergy can’t do anything about the palatability of hospital food, but it may be able to help you sleep. Research shows that inhaling blends of essential oils for anxiety, helps people get to sleep faster and to sleep longer. Interestingly, people also report needing to get up to go to the toilet so often and feeling warmer in their hospital beds too!
Add Sleepy Slumber Synergy Blend To Your Bath
Gorgeous! We suggest adding two drops of the Sleepy Slumber Synergy Blend of essentials to a teaspoon of carrier oil, then adding that mix to warm bath water.
Research suggests that inhalation of essential oils starts to affect the brain after about five minutes. Topical administration (through the skin) takes a little longer: around nineteen minutes. So, why not light some candles and have a lovely soak?
Sleepy Slumber Synergy Blend Candles
Usually, we’d suggest using one of our fragrance oils to make candles because they contain fixatives to make the scent last longer. The problem with these is they will have no therapeutic effects.
A great plan for candles around an aromatic bath is to light simple tea lights and let them burn for five minutes or so. You want to have a pool of melted wax around the wick. When you have this, add a couple of drops of your Sleepy Slumber Synergy Blend blend of essential oils for sleep to the liquid. (Take care not to get oil on the wick itself - that smells awful when it burns!) The warmth of the melted wax releases volatiles into the air for you to breathe quickly, to soothe you.
They’ll lose the scent of the sleepy slumber synergy blend by morning…but surely the nature of a magical candle is that the secret should vanish without a trace? Perfect for candles you are going to use immediately.
