Sleep Spray Recipe with Essential Oils to Promote Deep Rest

Getting a good night’s rest is imperative. A healthy lifestyle balance is dependent on your body recharging at night, and one of your best resources is using essential oils. This homemade essential oil sleep spray recipe can aid in relaxation and help you get a restful night.

How do Essential Oils Help with Rest?

These essential oils can help relieve the stress, emotional distress, or anxiety that is preventing you from sleeping.

  • Sweet Orange – This mood-boosting essential oil may seem an odd choice for aiding in sleep, but the anti-anxiety effect can help if depression is making sleep difficult.
  • Lavender – One of the best overall essential oils for mood and anxiety, as it relieves stress and allows sleep to come.
  • Vetiver Vetiver is rich and deep and helps calm scattered thoughts. It’s a great choice because of its sedative effect, which helps you calm your mind.
  • Roman Chamomile Chamomile calms both the digestive and nervous systems, which means if anxiety and nervousness keep you awake, this is an essential oil to add to your sleep spray.
  • Ylang Ylang – Pretty and balancing, ylang ylang essential oil is a balancing essential oil that has a calming and stress-relieving effect.

We have shared a few of our favorite sleep essential oil blends, but feel free to use your own favorite essential oil for sleep. Lavender oil is always a go-to for relaxing, and it works well for sleep. If you suffer from allergies, then you may want to use an allergy blend to help with breathing so you can rest peacefully. An anxiety blend may also be beneficial to you.
