Sleep Science: Aromatherapy to Help You Sleep

Aromatherapy is an age-old practice that involves using essential oils for therapeutic purposes, and it has picked up momentum lately as people search for natural ways to improve their health and sleep. When you use aromatherapy with the right essential oils, your body reacts by calming your heart rate, regulating your emotions, and even reducing levels of anxiety, all of which improve your sleep.

However, with so many essential oils out there, it can be hard to pick the right one. We’ve highlighted three of our favorites so you can choose which essential oil is right for you.

Soothing Lavender

Lavender’s proven time and again that it helps people get to and stay asleep. Known for its pleasant floral scent, lavender calms racing minds. If you’ve been suffering from insomnia or just want to sleep better, lavender can be a great choice for you.

Calming Citrus

Have you tried lavender before, and it hasn’t quite worked for you? Don’t give up, try citrus instead. Citrus has similar sleep benefits to lavender, but it has an aromatic tropical smell with a calming aroma.

Refreshing Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus is another great essential oil to use when you have trouble sleeping, but it also has the added benefit of clearing your air passages so you can breathe easier. If you find you have trouble breathing at night, Eucalyptus may be the essential oil for you.

Our recommendation: Utilize our eucalyptus-infused memory foam pillow to sleep and breath clearly night after night.

So, if you’re having trouble sleeping at night, consider using aromatherapy to ensure you get the rest you deserve.
