Last summer I made Lavender bags: Firstly I wrapped the Lavender in newspaper and kept it in a dark, dry place for a week or two ( an airing cupboard is ideal) Then I made some little bags (cotton or muslin would be perfect as they are natural) I have placed one by my bed and all I have to do is crush them slightly to release the soothing fragrance... They really help x
Great article! I have used feverfew for headaches and often use lavender oil for stress relief at bed time - sprinkle a few drops of essential oil on the pillow or in the bath. (you can also use crushed flowers) It also is a useful antiseptic for those of us with sensitive skin or allergies. not keen on the camomile tea (smells like cat wee!) but it does work.
