RE: Anxiety remedies that work part 1: Lavendel
I also put drops of Lavender essential oil in my shampoo. It helps my sensitive scalp, and it's relaxing to smell. I have a mix of essential oils that I can put on the soles of my feet before bed to help let go of thoughts, worries and just relax. It has a few oils in it, Lavender being one of them.
I like to use Lavender also when I have head aches, and I also use Wintergreen essential oil.
Great post btw ;)
Thanks @binkyprod, I just got som dried Lavender flowers from the shop, not sure if I should make tea from them or use them in some other way... Maybe use them with some shower gel/shampoo as a kind of "body-scrub"? It would be cool to make soap and put some of those flowers inside.

Oh, that WOULD be cool. I've never used actual Lavender flowers before, only the essential oil. I have a little bag of paupouris though.
I might just stuff them in a small pillow/bag and keep next to my head in bed, I think I remember my grandmother doing something like that... =)

That could work.
I tried drinking it in tea-form, but to be honest it is very overpowering, the taste...
I think a "smelly-bag" is the way to go, maybe I'll make a small lavendel teddy-bear for my inner child or something crazy like that... =)

Aw that sounds like such a fun project. You will have to share your Lavender Teddy if you do make one.
Okay! I promise to share it...
