Lavender Essential Oil is great for Insomnia. Lavender has a natural calming effect, and it also helps to improve your mood, so it helps you fall asleep and feel better while you sleep!

For a simple but effective Aromatherapy idea to help with Insomnia, before going to bed apply drops of Lavender Oil to a tissue. Leave it beside your pillow so you breathe it in continuously while you sleep.

Using Lavender Essential Oil in a humidifier or diffuser is an excellent way to keep the scent and evaporated molecules in the air too. This is especially great for babies and children who have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep. Just adjust the scent according to age, using less for infants and toddlers.
