- Lavender – Studies have shown that inhaling lavender as part of a bedtime routine can promote better sleep quality, decrease anxiety, improve energy the following day, and even improve quality of life. Applying lavender (to the temples or bottoms of the feet) or taking 1–2 drops internally before bedtime has shown similar benefits. As part of your bedtime routine, put a few drops of lavender in your bedside table diffuser or rub a few drops on the bottoms of your feet to support restful sleep.
