5 Essential Oils for Sleep

1. Lavender

Apply Lavender to the bottoms of your feet or Diffuse for more restful sleep. Lavender can even reduce anxious feelings.*

2. Serenity (restful) Blend

Apply to bottoms of your feet at bedtime to help calm down before going to bed. We diffuse this or Lavender every single night in our kids’ bedrooms. Use with doTERRA Serenity Restful Complex Softgels for an enhanced calming effect. Every night my husband and I use the Serenity Restful Softgels.*

3. Roman Chamomile

Calm your skin, mind, and body with Roman Chamomile essential oil. Apply topically or diffuse or even add a drop to your evening tea for feelings of calm.*

4. Peace Blend

Diffuse at night to create a calming environment or apply topically before going to bed. I apply Peace topically every night before bed. We also diffuse, in our Petal Diffuser, Peace in the Master bedroom at night.*

5. Vetiver

This oil is a powerhouse oil for restful sleep. Add this oil to your diffuser for healthy sleep. Not only does this oil help you relax, it can also support your immune system!* Great oil to diffuse at night during the winter months!
