Aromatherapy & Sleep


We've all had sleepless nights.

Sleeplessness adds up and can take its toll. You find yourself wide-eyed in bed, thinking through a million things, unable to drift off. Here's a solution you may not have yet considered: aromatherapy.


I was recently given the chance to check out Essence of Vali, a premium aromatherapy line by Valerie Bennis. Her motto is, "May you always take impeccable care of your self."

Her products encourage customers to do just that, whether they need a calming mist before sleep, or a refreshing elixir to help rejuvenate and awaken the senses.


My favorite is her sleep collection, which can help put you in the mood for some deep, dreamless sleep. I enjoyed spritzing my pillow for a week straight, and soon found that simply smelling the scent of the spray would help ease me into rest.

I highly recommend you check out Essence of Vali for some better Z's! Her website lists remedies for a variety of ailments; check out the healing index for details.
