How To: Make Your Own Sleep Salve

Make Your Own Sleep Salve

Having trouble falling asleep? Using coconut oil, olive oil, beeswax, and essential oils, you can easily concoct your own DIY, nice-smelling sleep salve that will help you drift off to slumber with minimal effort.

Simply heat together 1 cup coconut oil, 1 cup olive oil, and 4 tablespoons grated beeswax in a glass bowl placed in a double boiler until everything is melted together. Add 50 drops each of lavender, orange, cedar wood, peppermint, and cinnamon essential oils to the mixture.

Transport mixture into a glass jar until it cools at room temperature. Once the concoction has solidified to a salve, you can apply it to your feet at night and cover them with lightweight socks.
