Lavender Fields ~

We went to a lavender farm today and it was a bit of sensory overload. The moment we stepped out of the car the air was filled with the scent of lavender.

Lavender oil is one of the most popular of all the essential oils. It is well know for its calming properties but can be used in many other ways.

Some uses for lavender oil:

• To aid in sleep, rub some onto the bottom of your feet
• To help a headache, rub on to the back of your neck and on the temples
• Can be used as an insect repellant
• Apply to stings and burns as it stimulates blood flow and may help in healing
• Use in water when washing your face and will help control acne
