Lavender Oil

Sourced from the light purple flower of the same name, lavender oil can soothe stress and offers a myriad of other benefits. Its naturally relaxing properties make it a popular choice for a broad range of various uses. Add some of this oil to your bath to relax your cares away or apply a cream containing lavender oil to your face and body that may help to ease the symptoms of anxiety. Its naturally calming effect makes it a popular choice to help ease frazzled nerves and help you feel soothed and calm before bedtime.

With its light and pleasant fragrance, you'll find lavender oil in a wide range of everyday products. It's most commonly found in health and beauty items like lociones, facial creams, and body wash or bath soaks. Look for it in a wide range of products such as bubble bath, dishwashing liquid, and even in air fresheners. It also makes for a delicious tasting tea. Thanks to its aromatherapeutic properties, this oil is one of the most popular styles available due to its soothing nature. Add some natural lavender essential oil to your bath and breathe deeply for a nice evening soak.

If you prefer to use this pleasant-smelling oil in its natural form, simply add a few drops of the oil to a bit of water in your scented oil diffuser. Once heated, the oil and water release a light, pleasant fragrance that fills the room. If you choose to apply any essential oil to your skin, it's recommended that you add a bit of cocoa butter or jojoba oil to act as a carrier oil in order to avoid irritation of your skin. With so many different applications, this sweet-smelling oil is an enhancement to any home environment as well as to your mind and body.

As with any medicinal product, even natural ones, it is important to consult your health care provider before adding to or changing your health routine.
