a smellorific way to drift off to sleep • 10.07.09
soothing sleepy time magic
the soothing scents of essential oils elicit my ethereal senses and help me softly relax, let go and drift off to sleep. sometimes i use my essential oil blend in a little spray bottle that i spray on my pillow. other times i use one of two little pillows; one filled with rice, the other filled with buckwheat husks that i put an essential oil soaked cotton pad into. sometimes i dab some essential oil on the top of each shoulder and a dab on each temple. each of these different smellorifics ease my mind and my body and tenderly transport me into dream time.
while soothing scents may be a totally personal thing there are some that are well know for their sleepy time and relaxing powers. some blends: ** ylang ylang, lavender and tangerine info about more blends and brain olfactory facts click here
