Insomnia Blend

 

·        10 drops Roman chamomile

·        5 drops clary sage

·        5 drops bergamot

 

PREPARATION:

1.      Blend the oils well in a clean dark-colored glass bottle. Add 1-2 drops to a tissue and place inside your pillow to aid you in falling asleep. 

2.      If you prefer to make a diffuser blend that you enjoy during the hour before bedtime, make a blend with a ratio of 2 drops Roman Chamomile to 1 drop Clary Sage to 1 drop Bergamot and add to your diffuser.

3.      Lavender can also help provide relaxation and drowsiness, but using more than 1-2 drops can have the opposite effect.
