Lavender has been used and cherished for centuries for
its unmistakable aroma and myriad of therapeutic benefits. In ancient times, the Egyptians and Romans used Lavender for mummification, bathing, relaxation, cooking, and as a perfume; its ability to calm and soothe the mind and body continue to be Lavender’s most notable qualities. Lavender is frequently used to soothe skin irritations and help skin recover quickly. Applying Lavender to the back of the neck and temples helps reduce muscle tension. Inhaling Lavender promotes relaxation and a restful night’s sleep, making it an ideal oil to diffuse at bedtime and when stress levels are high. Due to Lavender’s versatility and soothing properties, it is considered the must-have oil to have on hand at all times.
Lavender oil blends well with several other oils to create an amazing array of home remedies that you've never dreamed of!
Blending Lavender with Marjoram, Rosemary or White Fir and adding to a carrier oil will give you a high powered pain reliever. Not only will your aches and pains diminish, your cells and tissue will repair quickly.
I never go on a trip without this blend! After site seeing all day, this is an evening must! On days when I'm on my feet a lot, I might stop, take a break and use it in the middle of the day. Especially when cooking for the holidays. Great stuff!
