Daily Habits with Lavender
Add Lavender to your relaxation routine...
- Unwind in the evening with a calming, Lavender-infused neck or back massage. Feeling tense? Add a little Peppermint and Frankincense!
- Use Lavender as part of a bedtime routine by rubbing it on the bottoms of your feet and diffusing it next to your bed.
- Help little ones calm down for bedtime with gentle Lavender massage. Mix 1 Tbsp carrier oil with 5 drops Lavender and gently massage legs, arms, and back.
- Add 10 drops of Lavender to 1 cup of magnesium flakes or epsom salt to a bath to create a relaxing environment. We also love adding Peace & Calming or Frankincense to the mix!
Add Lavender to your wellness routine...
- Reach for Lavender to release tension.
- Head On Roller: 20 drops Peppermint, Copaiba, Lavender, 10 drops Frankincense. Fill with V-6 carrier or carrier oil of choice and roll over temples, across the forehead, on the back of the neck and shoulders.
- Use Lavender to support the airways when air quality is less than ideal:
- Seasons Change Roller Blend: 15 drops each Lavender, Lemon, Peppermint, Tea Tree, Copaiba, then fill with carrier. Roll over the chest, wrists, just below the nostrils. This also makes a great combination for an epsom salt bath or a diffuser blend!
- Add 5 drops each Lavender and Copaiba to 1 cup fine grain sea salt or organic salt and mineral solution and mix well. To use, dilute 1 tsp of mixture with 8-12 oz distilled water to make a DIY nasal rinse solution for use in a netipot.
- Use a drop of Lavender Vitality under the tongue or swiped on the inside of the cheek.
