  • I use Peace&Calming (2-3 drops), Valor (1-2 drops) on back of neck/ears, along with Ocotea (1-2 drops) under my tongue. I sleep deep, dream big and wake up rested. Occasionally I change it up by using Cedarwood, center of my forehead, temples and top of my head, (1drop each place) for a deep sleep.

  • I like to take Frankincense, Oregano, Rosemary && Clary Sage. Can i put them all in the same capsule? Or should i take them each in a separate capsule? I didn't know if combing them changed its composition or whatever.

    • Hi Tawnee! You are welcome to combine up to four single essential oils in one capsule for dietary use as long as the individual label directions are followed.

  • Love all the recommendations for sleep. Is it possible to include the number of drops in each recipe?

  • Are any of these essential oils safe for kids? I am particularly interested in the Stress Away roll-on, for my 7 year old daughter who has difficulty falling asleep. We already do all the healthy sleep habits, but need something more.

    • Hi Pam,
      We have used the kidscents essential oils and are working wonderfult for our kiddos, key is consistency, since they are prediluted already and formulated for kids, you have nothing to measure out. let me know if you need to order or if you are a distributor already thanks!

    • Hi Pam, thanks for stopping by! Many essential oils are appropriate for use with children. Since children have more sensitive skin, essential oils should be diluted prior to use. We offer KidScents products that are prediluted and specifically designed for use with children, including several KidScents oils.

  • I cannot wait to get my diffuser. I want to put it in my bedroom so I can experiment with getting more sleep. I am currently taking magnesium before I go to bed and I sleep on an average 96% efficient but I do not feel that I sleep long enough. I am hoping that I can get more sleep with the diffuser and YL oils.

    • Can I ask what kinda and how much magnesium you take each night to help with sleep? I have insomnia and it takes me forever to fall asleep! :(

  • My new blend for diffusing in the evening prior to bed is: 6 drops cedarwood, 4 drops Peace & Calming, and 2 drops lavender. Try it!

    • Hey Beth, I did try your recipe, smell awesome for the whole 8 hours. I like it so much that I try the recipe for my bath, feel like spa as well.

  • I absolutely love this site! This has helped me with a better night sleep and will definitely help my viewers for my blog!

  • I tried the stress away and lavender. I put it on my feet and wrists. Amazingly great night, no dreams and actually felt rested in the am. I am going to try diffusing both if I can ever get the diffuser back from my daughter. Loved a great nights sleep.

    • Hi Judy,
      I have recently purchased a home diffuser and sample of oils but nowhere in the literature do I see how much oil to put in the diffuser. Can you share some info on this?

  • Stress away is my most favorite oil for falling asleep, especially on nights were my brain won't shut off. it puts you in a nice deep sleep so that you wake up feeling super rested. I put it on one or all areas, shoulders, temples, wrists and feet and make sure I take 3-5 deepbreaths. The smell alone is so relaxing
