Natural ways to get better sleep

Learn To Relax

Start learning to relax and switch off, most sleep problems are caused by overstimulation, anxiety, and stress. Muscle Relaxation Techniques and guided meditations used together are one of the most powerful ways to encourage the body and mind off the stress, worry, or anxiety state. That is why our Relaxation Therapists are trained in a variety of relaxation therapy tools that treat insomnia.

Healthier Bedtime Routine

Create A Healthier Bedtime Routine– encourage healthier bedtime hygiene for the whole family. Most people do the most unrelaxing activities just before bed. Choosing to watch tv, use the computer, smoke, drink, and eat up to a few minutes before bedtime. All things affect their ability to fall off to sleep and to remain in a deep quality restful sleep.

Get The Right Bed And Mattress For Your Needs

Get a Good Quality Bed – it is crazy we spend more time in our beds than anywhere else but we invest more money in a few months in a car than we do in the lifetime of a bed. A new comfortable bed you will sleep deeply in is worth its weight in gold. According to sleep council “…an alarming four out of five people complain of disturbed or inadequate – or ‘toxic’ – sleep. (Sleep Council ‘Toxic Sleep’ survey, January 2011)”

Use Aromatherapy And Essential Oils For Insomnia

Aromatherapy for Sleep– Aromatherapy and essential oils are a very popular alternative to sleep medication. Specific essential oils can help treat insomnia; some are sedating, calming, soothing. You simply add them to your bath or dilute them into a massage oil to help you achieve a deep quality sleep. Here are some essential oils used to naturally treat insomnia.

Vetivert is too me is one of the most sedating and extremely useful essential oils to use with those who are suffering from chronic long-term sleep problems, insomnia. But used too much on its own it can increase drowsiness. But NYROrganics have solved this with a lovely Night Time Blend, of lavender, vetivert, rose, bergamot designed to help you drift off into a deep sleep.

Frankincense is a deeply relaxing, meditating oil that can aid sleep. It is extremely earthy, grounding with a balsamic scent. It has amazing skincare, rejuvenating, and preserving qualities too, so it gives a boost when applied to skin. I love the smell of frankincense pure essential oil and find it deeply relaxing and soothing, it helps induce more inner peace.

Lavender is an extremely popular oil and widely used essential oil in sleep products for most people it is relaxing but for some, it is more a clarifier, I have always found lavender is more effective on clients when used with another essential oil such as Ylang Ylang, Frankincense, Vetivert or Clarysage to help with sleep challenges. But lavender is a great all-rounder for any holiday or home first aid kit, it one of the most cost-effective products that can be used for many ailments, burns, bites, bruises, temperatures…and great for kids.

Clary sage can also be useful for sleep but its more often used for those with hormonal issues, PMS, PMT, menopause, it can also curb addictions. Clary-sage essential oil has a pungent smell but can really be helpful for pain relief especially cramps and muscular tension etc Again Clary Sage oil can be mixed with lavender.

Night Time Remedy Aromaball a soothing scent of essential oils blended to help you sleep; Lavender, Chamomile, Neroli, Rose …that can be applied easily to the temples, wrists, neck, discreetly and easily. Ideal to fit in pocket or handbag easily.
