Oh the life changing magic of sleep! Sleep is essential for everyone from kids to adults, and it's the body's way of replenishing, refreshing, and rejuvenating all our systems.

WHAT'S IN THE BOX Peace & Calming Essential Oil Item #3398 Peace and Calming is one of Young Living's most popular blends, and for good reason! Peace and Calming is a unique blend of Tangerine, Orange, Ylang Ylang, Patchouli, and Blue Tansy that will surely become a favorite in your family to relax and calm emotions. This oil can signal overtired and overworked body systems that it is a safe space to release stress and defenses and setting into a peaceful, calm emotional state.

  • Diffuse in all bedrooms at night to promote restful sleep.
  • Rub drops on wrists or back of neck to promote a calm, relaxed state. This is a great way to help tired children wind down busy bodies and minds after active days
  • Apply Peace & Calming to the bottoms of feet at night as part of a bedtime ritual for your whole family.
  • Add 4–5 drops to 1 cup of Epsom salt for a centering bath at the start of the day or as part of a calming evening routine.
  • Diffuse alone or with Lavender and use in a roller as desired.

Deep Night Essence Item #46956 Deep Night Essence is an herb and essential oil capsule that offers a nature-based, long-term solution to support healthy sleep habits over time. Unlike short-term sleep aids, it won't cause any drowsy side effects the next day! It is melatonin-free, so you can use it as long as you need, and when paired with Super Magnesium, it is a powerhouse for healthy sleep!! Deep Night Essence also helps the brain's natural processes that clean up toxins or waste during sleep. It is truly the best sleep supplement!

Lavender Essential Oil Item #5590 Lavender is synonymous with rest and relaxation, so this oil is a no-brainer when it comes to sleep! Lavender is a gentle oil with a calming effect on everything from our respiratory systems, to our skin, to our emotions.

  • Use Lavender as part of a bedtime routine by rubbing it on the bottoms of your feet and diffusing it next to your bed.
  • Calm down for bedtime with a gentle Lavender massage. Mix 1 Tbsp carrier oil with 5 drops of Lavender and gently massage legs, arms and back.
  • Add 10 drops of Lavender to 1 cup of magnesium flakes or epsom salt to a bath to create a relaxing environment. We also love adding Peace & Calming or Cedarwood to the mix!

Super Magnesium Item #46964 This mighty supplement does so much for the body (it's involved in over 300 processes!!) – protein synthesis to muscle, nerve function, healthy glucose and blood pressure levels, DNA synthesis, and glutathione (the body's primary antioxidant) production. It also helps the body relax into sleep and to execute all those healing processes when levels are ideal!

Super Magnesium is the ultimate in magnesium supplementation. Super Magnesium combines the power of bioavailable (read: easily absorbable) magnesium from the Irish Sea with the power of melon juice concentrate and Bergamot essential oil to maintain healthy magnesium levels in the body all day long. In short, this supplement helps your body win!

RutaVaLa Roll-on Item #4471 This blend of lavender, ruta, and valerian will make a believer out of anyone. The scent isn't the most popular (hello valerian!), but trust us when we say that applying this roller to the bottom of your feet (especially the big toe!) will help support sleep in the most incredible way.
