If you\u2019re wishing you had gone to bed a bit earlier last night (or were able to sleep in this morning) you\u2019re not alone. In fact, according to the Centers of Disease Control, 35% of Americans don\u2019t get enough sleep (seven hours) every night. Maybe you reach for coffee to get going in the morning or take a supplement or prescription to help you shut down at the end of the day\u2014but these are just quick fixes that mask the underlying problem at hand.\u00a0Lavender may be the nature-based solution you need, and there are countless studies that show its relaxing benefits. In fact, a recent study<\/a>\u00a0showed that the aromatherapy effects of lavender help reduce anxiety without the common side effects associated with drugs like Xanax and Valium. Whether you\u2019re looking to keep your cool at work or set the stage for better sleep, here are a few lavender aromatherapy options to try.<\/p>\n

GuruNanda Lavender Essential Oil
\n<\/a>There are several ways to use this pure lavender essential oil, including adding to a diffuser, blending 20 drops with five ounces of water to make a room spray, or mixing two drops with coconut oil and applying to the temples and back of the neck to reduce stress. Remember, all lavender essential oils are not created equal, and you want one made with pure lavender, not lavandin. Though derived from similar plants, their chemical compositions and scents are different\u2014and lavender is what you need if you\u2019re looking for optimal relaxation.<\/p>\n
