This is the Power of aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is the practice of using natural plant extracts, often in the form of essential oils, to promote health and well-being. This ancient practice has been used for thousands of years across various cultures, and modern science is increasingly validating its benefits. One of the most widely recognized and researched essential oils is lavender, known for its soothing and calming properties.

How Lavender Affects Sleep

Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is more than just a pleasant fragrance; it has been scientifically proven to impact the brain in ways that promote relaxation and improve sleep quality. The scent of lavender is believed to interact with the neurotransmitter GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), which plays a crucial role in reducing nerve activity and helping the brain enter a state of relaxation. By enhancing GABA activity, lavender helps to calm the nervous system, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.

Several studies support the use of lavender for sleep:

• Research from Wesleyan University found that participants exposed to lavender before bedtime experienced deeper sleep and felt more refreshed upon waking.
• A study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine** showed that lavender oil can significantly improve sleep quality in individuals with mild insomnia.
• Another study conducted by the University of Southampton revealed that participants who slept in a lavender-scented environment reported a 20% improvement in their overall sleep quality.

These findings underscore the potent effects of lavender in promoting a restful night’s sleep, making it an ideal choice for our sleep-enhancing Freshtape.
