So far I have posted my experiments with products, not being sure how they will affect me and, of course, being ever so skeptical that they might even work. However, tonight, as we all get ready for bed, I thought I would write about one oil that has been incredibly helpful to me over the past year. I often have a very hard time falling asleep and/or staying asleep. One way I have dealt with this is to get up and eat foods with a high sugar content. As the sugar burns and wears off, I would experience a sugar crash which would make me very tired. HOWEVER, this is not healthy, nor recommended and I have always felt ill afterwards. Not to mention, it is not something that is on my God food plan.....that is a whole other post and a whole other story. Feel free to ask if you want to know more.
But, I digress. Back to the sleepless nights. I really wanted to find another way to fight these nights so I could sleep. I consulted a friend of mine and she highly suggested I try an oil blend called Past Tense. It came in a cute little roll on bottle....it was worth a shot.
Next to peppermint, which is growing on me and quickly becoming a go to for my tummy issues as well as relieving muscle aches, it has been a favorite oil. I quickly got past my skepticism when I discovered that when I roll it on my neck and shoulders and rub it in, take a good long couple of wiffs, and pull the covers up over my head......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. It puts me to sleep. Complete dream land and blessed rest. I loved it because it worked better than my sugar crash remedy, and unlike over the counter sleeping aides or Nyquil and Ibuprofen (yeah Ibuprofen makes me drowsy), it did not take me a whole day to recover from taking it. I woke up feeling like I had actually slept.
Why do I share this with you tonight? Well, as I was getting ready for bed, I thought maybe there are some others who suffer from restless, sleepless nights and maybe someone might benefit from my experience....maybe it could help someone else also get a good nights sleep.
Try it for yourself and see if it helps you like it has helped me and let me know what you think.
Sweet Dreams to you all,
The Skeptic
