How to Make Homemade Natural Sleep Aid
Place the coconut oil, olive oil, and grated beeswax in a metal or glass bowl, and heat over a double boiler.
Once everything has melted, give it a stir to make sure everything is mixed together well, and then remove from heat.
Once your mix has slightly cooled add in about 50 drops of Lavender and 50 drops of Thieves essential oils and mix.
Carefully ladle the warm sleep salve into clean metal jars, let cool until room temperature.
Add a custom printable sleep salve label to the top of your tin and your sleep slave is ready to use!
Store close to your bed and smooth onto feet, cover with socks, and snuggle up on nights you’re having a tough time falling asleep.
The lavender will help support a good night’s rest and the Thieves will support a stronger immune system.
Why this works:
The larger pores in your feet allow the essential oils to quickly absorb and flow through the body, helping you relax. You can also massage into hands, sore muscles, or even your temples for instant calm.
