Imagine ending your day enveloped in tranquility, with the gentle scent of nature guiding you into a restful slumber. Creating a calming evening routine with essential oils can be the key to better sleep and ultimate relaxation. Here's your step-by-step guide to winding down with these aromatic wonders.
Step 1: Set the Atmosphere
Begin by diffusing oils that promote relaxation in your bedroom approximately 30 minutes before you retire. Start with an Essential Oil like Lavender or Peace and Calming for its calming effects. Add a few drops of Cedarwood to bring depth and encourage deep sleep. This blend will transform your space into a peaceful haven that signals your body it's time to unwind.
Step 2: Prepare a Soothing Bath
A warm bath is your sanctuary before bed. Add two drops of Chamomile Essential Oil along with a scoop of Epsom salts. Mix the Chamomile EO with a little baking soda, then add the Epsom salts, remember oil and water don’t mix. Chamomile is renowned for its soothing properties, melting away stress and tension from a long day. Sink into the bath and let your worries dissolve.
Step 3: Massage with Intention
After bathing, massage your feet and temples with a relaxing oil blend. Mix a few drops of Lavender and Chamomile with a carrier oil like V6. This simple yet intentional act can deepen relaxation and ease you into a state ready for rest. Your skin will thank you.
Step 4: Breathing Ritual
Take five deep breaths before closing your eyes. Consider keeping a bottle of Peace & Calming at your bedside, inhaling deeply to reinforce calmness as you drift to sleep. This practice not only relaxes your body but also prepares your mind for peaceful dreams.
Customize your order to include: Cedarwood, Chamomile, Lavendar and Peace & Calming.
