Sleep & Relax Aid Herbal Salve, 2oz
Our Sleep & Relax Aid herbal salve is the perfect solution for when you want to relax or fall asleep. Packed with powerful herbs this salve helps promote relaxation and helps you fall and stay asleep. Use during times of stress to chill out or before bed to get a better quality of sleep.
All of our herbal salves start off with a fat base made up of equal parts 100% grass fed tallow and 100% pasture raised lard and some added beeswax. The fat and wax mixture is then heated up and melted using a double boiler. Next the herbal blend is added to the fat mixture allowing the active ingredients to infuse into the fats. Once the infusions process is finished the mixture is then strained of the solid herbal components and allowed to cool into a solid salve with all of the herbal benefits.
Uses
- Increase relaxation

How to Use
Rub a small dose (dime size) across neck, temples and/or wrists an hour or so before sleep or during times of stress when you want to relax.
Ingredients
Herbs
- Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) : The ancient Greeks used lavender to reduce body aches and to improve sleep. It has also been used for a variety of purposes from a wash to help clean wounds and reducing anxiety to a perfume merely for the scent!
- California poppy (Eschscholzia californica) : contains chemicals that cause relaxation and sleepiness for some. People use California poppy for anxiety, insomnia, aches, and many other purposes, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.
- Vetiver (Chrysopogon zizanioides) : the root has been used for stress and sleep amongst folk medicine practices. Vetiver is sometimes applied directly to the skin for relieving stress, as well as emotional traumas and shock; treating lice; and repelling insects.
Base
- Tallow

I absolutely love this sleep aid. I put some on my temples, and base of my neck. I have amazing dreams and sleep like a baby. Super glad I found this herbal salve.
This is a nice ritual before going to bet.
