Lavender oil is made from the flowers of the lavender plant, and it has a sweet, floral scent. It's often used in aromatherapy for its soothing and calming properties. It can help to reduce stress, anxiety, and even insomnia. Many people find that diffusing lavender oil before bedtime helps them sleep more soundly. It's also sometimes used as a natural remedy for headaches and other types of pain.
In addition to diffusing lavender oil, you can also use it topically by adding a few drops to a carrier oil like jojoba or coconut oil, and then applying it to your skin. It can be especially helpful for relaxing sore muscles or massaging tired feet.
