Are you counting sheep every night and still can't seem to get a good night's sleep? You're not alone. Millions of Americans suffer from sleep problems, but there are natural solutions that you can try. Essential oils can help promote relaxation and alleviate sleep problems.

In this blog post, we'll explore five Young Living essential oils that can help you sleep better and wake up feeling refreshed. These oils are known for their calming properties and are easy to incorporate into your bedtime routine.



Lavender oil is the perfect oil to start with, as it is one of the most popular oils for relaxation. The calming properties of lavender can help reduce stress and anxiety, promoting better sleep. Simply add a few drops to a diffuser, or mix it with a carrier oil and apply it to your temples or wrists before bed.



Valerian oil is a natural sedative that can help you fall asleep faster. This oil has been shown to have a calming effect on the mind and body, making it a great choice for those who struggle with insomnia. Simply diffuse it in your bedroom, or apply it to the bottoms of your feet before bed. A popular sleep-supporting blend from Young Living that contains valerian essential oil is Rutavala. It is available in a convenient roll-on bottle, making it especially easy to use when traveling. 



Cedarwood oil is well-known for its ability to promote relaxation and reduce stress and anxiety. It has a soothing and calming effect that can help you unwind and prepare for a peaceful night's sleep. Try diffusing it in your bedroom or mix it with a carrier oil and apply it to your chest.



Vetiver oil has a grounding and calming effect that can help you relax and fall asleep. It is particularly useful for those who have overactive minds and find it difficult to switch off. To use it, simply diffuse it in your bedroom or apply it to the bottoms of your feet before bed.



Bergamot oil is known for its relaxing properties and ability to reduce stress and anxiety. This oil has a beautiful citrus scent that can help lift your mood and promote relaxation. You can diffuse it in your bedroom or apply a drop or two to your wrists before bed.
