In addition to its stress-reducing benefits, lavender is a powerful natural sleep aid. The chemical components of lavender have been shown to enter the bloodstream within five minutes of massaging the oil on the skin, so you can count on it working quickly as it relaxes your mind and body. You can also diffuse lavender oil in your bedroom (it’s safe for kids, too!). Additionally, inhalation of lavender oil has helped heart patients and women in midlife combat insomnia and improve sleep quality.

Quickly becoming a popular and in-demand oil, vetiver has sleep-inducing properties that can be incredibly powerful. Native to India and cultivated in other tropical areas, the herb is rich in sesquiterpenes that help calm your emotions and improve mental well-being. Using vetiver oil in a diffuser while you sleep could help improve your breathing patterns.
