Scents to help you sleep!
Updated: 2 days ago
Happiness consists of getting enough sleep and I am one of those people that seem to not get enough of it.
My sleep patterns tend to be all over the place. I used to struggle falling asleep, then when eventually asleep, I would only sleep for a few hours at a time. I think I'm just used to not getting the usual 8 hours. Do people really get 8 hours sleep every night?
If you do struggle sleeping, or find it hard to switch off after work and wind down of a night, then consider melting some of these scented wax melts to help you relax and unwind.
Lavender - we've all previously heard that this scent has been widely used for years and years to aid better sleep and treat insomnia. It helps to ease restlessness and decreases heart rate and blood pressure. Pillow sprays in this scent are also worth a go. https://www.instagram.com/ajwpamperedprincess/ on Instagram do a great Body Shop range for sleep. Definitely worth taking a look.
Jasmine - helps to calm and sooth anxiety, aides in sleep as it can help reduce your heart rate, has sedative effects on your mood and nerve activity.
I launched a new scent in Sweet Jasmine to our range of wax melts last month. It's personally one of my fav fragrances, so highly recommend. Also available in a reed diffuser too. https://www.beatriceandlilly.com/product-page/sweet-jasmine
Rose - treats depression and grief, relaxes your body, helps to ease any aches and pains. Try my Velvet Rose & Oud wax melts, also available in a diffuser. It's a dupe of a popular perfume in the same name. https://www.beatriceandlilly.com/product-page/velvet-rose-oud
Ylang Ylang - improves quality of sleep, relaxes the mind and body, helps to fight off depression and hypertension. I recently introduced wax melts in a Relaxing Ylang Ylang fragrance, now also available in a reed diffuser. https://www.beatriceandlilly.com/product-page/relaxing-ylang-ylang
Chamomile - treats insomnia, helps to reduce a fatigue feeling, and improves daily functioning. Chamomile tea is great before bed for relaxation.
Bergamot - lowers blood pressure, slows down your heart rate, reduces cortisol levels and helps to lower stress. I have Orange & Bergamot wax melts available, also in a reed diffuser too. https://www.beatriceandlilly.com/product-page/orange-bergamot
Why should we get plenty of sleep?
