Home Spa for insomniacs

Note : This is NOT for pregnant women. Skip this spa if you are allergic to or dislike the smell of lavender oil.

Lavender shop

Before you start

Play some gentle, soothing music to set the mood. Burn a candle that is made with lavender essential oil. 

Mix 1 tablespoon of a good quality sweet almond oil or any other  Carrier Oil with 3 drops pure lavender oil, 1 drop geranium and 2 drops marjoram. Do NOT use spike lavender or lavandin. This is your massage oil.

Ambience

For a full spa ambience, 

The facial

(Skip this facial if you are allergic to honey, milk or oats)

Remove make up with milk. Wash off the milk with lots of warm water.

Mix 5 tablespoonful of oat flour, 5 teaspoons of honey and 1 drop of pure lavender oil. Do NOT use spike lavender or lavandin. Add distilled water or milk for a smooth consistency.

Apply some of this as a mask on clean face. (avoid eye area)

Body pampering

Wash your body with soap and water first.

Apply the rest of the mask on your body. (Skip this mask if you are allergic to honey, milk or oats)

Fill the bath tub with warm water.

Add 10 drops of pure lavender oil to the bath water. Do NOT use spike lavender or lavandin. The large amount of camphor in these oils could keep you awake instead.

Soak in the bath, scrubbing yourself with a wash cloth. Stay for as long as you like, listening to the music and relaxing. Just don't fall asleep in the tub. If you start to get sleepy, quickly get out of the bath dry yourself and put on comfortable clothes.

Final touch

Make a hot milky drink.

Sip your drink.

Massage your body with your massage oil. 

Lie in bed and massage your feet. Especially the undersides of your feet. Curl up in bed, enjoy the music, relax and sweet dreams. For a final touch, sleep on a lavender pillow.

Try these for relaxation
