Make it Aromatherapy for Me

As I was surfing around today I came across an interesting fact. Did you know that the scent of Lavender may alleviate the moods of:

Anxiety
Fear
Anger
Depression
Insomnia
Irritability
Panic & Panic Attacks
Stress

I have kept a bottle of lotion near my bed for a very long time and during times of stress I would rub the lotion on my hands and arms & it seemed to defuse the problem. After reading this article I went to see what the sent was..it's Lavender. I even bought a lavender votive this weekend not realizing it's effects.

Recently I have seen bed linen sprays, soap, candles, lotions, laundry detergent, perfume in Lavender scent. There really is something behind it. This would be great to carry in your car or purse as well as keep next to your bed to use in time of stress.

Try it out next time you feel the anxiety level rise & let me know if you are getting benefits out of it too. This would be a great gift to give to yourself for the holidays.

I am off to find more lavender products that I have & have a relaxed night.

Wishing you peaceful thoughts today,
Amy

**You can also find wonderful handmade lavender products in the Egg Store.
