Some of the scent options that can be beneficial for children’s sleep are:
Lavender: Best known for its relaxing and calming properties. Ideal to create a quiet atmosphere in your child’s bedroom before going to bed.
Chamomile: It also has calming properties that help us fall asleep.
Melissa: its leaves, flowers, and stem are widely implemented in popular medicine to treat depression, anxiety, insomnia and headaches.
It is important to remember that aromatherapy is not a “magical” solution to sleep anomalies in our children, and that it is necessary to incorporate other measures, such as setting a scheduled sleeping routine, accompanied with a quiet and comfortable environment in your child’s bedroom.
