Sleep Support – All Natural Therapeutic Blends and Ingredients To Support Better  Sleep

Sleep is absolutely essential to our health and balance in life, yet many people experience a chronic lack of good quality deep sleep. There is no one fix (other than medications, which can leave you feeling ‘hung over’ and are horribly addictive).

I have put a lot of consideration into each of these products and am very proud of the Collection that has emerged. I’ve taken into account the various properties of the natural oils in addition to the essential oils used, and have strived to create a range of unique products that are not only highly effective, but are also beautiful to use, and that smell incredible. The products on this page are absolutely my legacy as a former insomniac and stress bunny.

Why is sleep so fragile?

Sleep is easily disrupted by all manner of things including:

  • emotional upset
  • physical or nerve pain
  • stiff muscles & joints
  • stress
  • grief
  • overwhelm
  • imbalance between mental activity and physical activity
  • worry
  • watching action movies (truth!)
  • alcohol or rich foods in the evening
  • poor gut health

One thing I learned from my yoga training in 2021 is the power of breathing – the yogis call this practice Pranayama. They believe that a focus on deep breathing (opening and closing the diaphragm to enable oxygen to you to the base of your stomach with each breath) is essential to a balanced life.

I giggled when the Master Yogi explained that this is the reason your nose is in the middle of your face, but turns out, Pranayama works. It lowers an elevated heart rate, and reduces stress within minutes.

Pranayama techniques include right nostril breathing to activate your parasympathetic nerve system – and calm you down, and left nostril breathing to activate your sympathetic nervous system and wake you up / increase your focus.

When you add the hand mudra positions, you are cooking with gas – it’s super interesting.
