Because certain essential oils — like lavender, chamomile, and valerian — can help with relaxation, the American Sleep Association recommends diffusing essential oils to promote sleep. Lavender is my favourite because it works wonderfully to relieve anxiety, and it always helps me fall asleep faster.
Unfortunately, I recently learned that even pet-friendly essential oils may be too potent for animals when diffused, so I've stopped using my diffuser for now — but I still can't recommend this sleep hack enough to people without indoor pets. However, it should be noted that certain essential oils may be unsafe for children, people who are pregnant or breastfeeding, and those who are immunocompromised.
