If you love all things lavender, you're not alone! This versatile essential oil was my "gateway" into the world of oils, captivating me with its relaxing scent and multiple uses. From soothing skin irritations to calming minor burns, lavender has become my go-to, especially for the kids, making it an indispensable part of our daily routine.
Recent studies have highlighted even more amazing benefits of lavender. Research from the University of Miami shows that smelling lavender increases beta waves in the brain, leading to higher relaxation levels. Similarly, a study from Osaka Kyoiku University found that lavender not only reduces mental stress but also increases alertness, making it a win-win for both relaxation and focus.
Lavender’s benefits extend further, with studies indicating its potential to reduce pain by creating brain waves similar to being held by your mother. Whether it's through essential oil or hydrating Vitality Drops in lavender lemonade flavor, integrating more lavender into your life can be both soothing and revitalizing.

But sometimes I have diffuser recipe ADD, and just don’t know what to use. Which is why I’m grateful we now have vanilla oleoresin available, because it’s given me the opportunity to change things up!
