This essential oil may be expensive, but a little goes a long way and it works, so its worth the money. Dilute it in tea or a carrier oil or even in your bath water for an instant feeling of relaxation. It will help you relax if you are tense or stressed and will aid you in getting to sleep if your mind will not shut off at night. I have used this herb for years to aid me in all sorts of stressful situations and sleep issues. As if a massage is not relaxing enough, if you add a few drops of this to the oil you are using, it will heighten the relaxation even more. I would recommend this essential oil to everyone. Its all natural and has hundreds of years of proven use to back up the claims I am making. Just be sure to follow the directions on the bottle. A little is all you need, and by little I am talking drops.
