Oh Lavender...You hold such lure for me! I love, love the scent of lavender!It's scent is such a heady aroma, filled with magical sprinkles of lavender
petals, drops of morning dew, a dash of fairy dust, a whisper of moon sparkle,
tiny fairy giggles and dancing bunnies in the moon light.
Have you ever been weeding and brushed up against your lavender plant?I have, and at that moment, I just have to stop and inhale the wonderful
scent of it over and over!
There is a Lavender Farm about one and a half hours north of where I love.It's called Young Living Farms, they have these farms all over the world too.
I love to visit this one in the summer time, it's such a joy to just be there, walking
around and enjoying the fabulous scent!
There is an old house that sits on this farm and you can go inside andbrowse to your hearts content all of the lovely products that they make
from the lavender that they grow. I could spend all day there.
They hold all kinds of festivals there in the summer time too.
You can smell the farm for miles around, I think Heaven must smell like this.

I can't imagine being around this scent all day...I think I would go crazy with the pleasure of it!
I love to put a drop on my pillow at night or spray my bed linens with it.It just makes me fall deeply asleep and have a wonderful nights rest.
For Valentines Day, my husband gave me some products from theYoung Living Farm. He truly read my mind! I am loving all of it.
I love the massages that come with the massage oil the most!I have been sick for a week, I have been living on Day Quil/Night Quil to
kept me from coughing to death! I think I got what my little grands had
that landed them in the hospital. This lavender is really helping though.

Aromatherapy uses fragrance to stimulate nerves in the nose.Those nerves send impulses to the part of the brain that control the psyche. Lavender helps reduce stress, anxiety and insomnia.
Try misting your bed sheets and pillowcases with it and using it in your home as an air freshener or with a nice candle. I love using it in my home and on my body. Love it the best of all the scents. I also love the scent of Jasmine and rose. These scents must have been part of my Heaven because the certainly hold a lure over me even now.

I love lavender too, so relaxing. In New Mexico where my son in laws' family lives we stay at an Inn called Los Poblanos. It's a huge farm with lavender fields amongst other things. Nothing more beautiful than strolling in the lavender. My other favorite scent is eucalyptus. Sometimes I even mix the two essential oils together. Eucalyptus is so good for clearing your sinus. Try it next time you have a cold. I even put some on a Kleenex and sleep with it on my pillow.
